When was the last time you took a moment to slow down and relax? In our fast-paced lives, we often eat quickly, walk briskly, and speak rapidly. Everything is in a rush. But when we hurry, our bodies respond with a stress response, primarily triggered by hormones like adrenaline and cortisol. This creates physiological changes meant to prepare us for “fight or flight,” even if the perceived danger is simply being late or imagined.

Rushing can lead to several physical and psychological effects. Physically, we may experience an increased heart rate, elevated blood pressure, faster and shallower breathing to enhance oxygen intake, and muscle tension. Psychologically, feelings of anxiety and jitteriness can arise, making it challenging to maintain and make sound decisions.

Rushing triggers a stress response which impairs our judgment and results in mistakes. High levels of stress contribute to issues such as anxiety and high blood pressure. Did you know the number one mental health problem is anxiety disorder? Chronic stress from constant rushing can negatively impact our physical and psychological health.

This is why slowing down is critical for our well-being. Slow down and enjoy a cup of tea at Àse Tea House. Tea inherently activates the relaxation response. With its abundance of benefits, a cup of tea is filled with tranquility, passion, love, hope, and peace.

So take the time to slow down, savor each sip, and experience this remarkable leaf. Visit us at the Àse Tea House. As you inhale the tea aroma, exhale and slow down.
