Wanna Kick Coffee, The Mid-Day Rut or Insomnia? TRY THIS

Today I am partnering with TeaMi Blends to share why I am 100% a full-on devotee to the mind, body and soul benefits found in tea. Yes, tea. And not just sweet tea--which I fondly refer to southern water. I live off of herbal tea. Live. Off. 

Over the last two weeks, I've nearly kicked my insane coffee habit, fought the 3pm-rut without  copious amounts of chocolate and coffee, and fallen to sleep with ease, thanks to my all time favorite tea people, TeaMi Blends ALIVE and RELAX teas! 





I have been devoted to tea for a little over a decade now. I use it to soothe my tummy, help me sleep, loose a few pounds, focus, relax, handle my day like a boss...

Last weekend, I met a girlfriend for a pedicure. I was running late, so she got the chairs reserved and ready. As I went to sit down, I handed her my phone and tea so I could get situated.

My friend: What is it with you and your brother and tea!

Me: Ha! You should see my sister!   Taste it. It's better than coffee and wakes me up twice as fast, and I don't crash!

Friend: Wow. It's delicious!

Me: Really? You think so!   

Don't get me wrong, the tea is delicious! Very delicious. I was just surprised because my friend can be so picky and particular. (Love You, L!) I used her liking my tea as an opportunity to school her on the benefits of what she just called, delicious!




My morning cup of TeaMi Blends ALIVE tea is the perfect blend of Ginger Honey + Lemongrass + Green Tea. Hello, yum! 

The Possible Benefits may include:


  • Eliminating Chronic Exhaustion 
  • Boosting Metabolism

  • Detoxing of the Kidney & Liver

Thanks to Alive Tea, I have nearly kicked my 3-4 cups of coffee a day habit, to just my morning cup. I also feel HEAPS better drinking the tea. My goal is to be completely off coffee by the end of July! My brother, a tea devotee too, (read: uber health nut all-natural, super clean machine, gym junkie) kicked coffee last winter using green tea. He's been urging me to try, but I just hadn't found anything that got me going like coffee. Until now!
