Come Home to Your Body: Why Ritual, Slowness & Herbal Tea Can Help You Connect with Your Body
A pot of herbal tea, a handmade cup, and a moment of stillness. This is the essence of the Sabina Wilde BODY Embodiment Tea — grounding the nervous system, awakening the senses, and creating space for your body, eros, and soul. Every cup is an invitation to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with what’s true for you.
Why Tea Rituals Are Returning for Women
There is something ancient, holy, and beautifully nourishing about the ritual of tea.
Feminine Jungian Analyst Marion Woodman reminds us:
“Ritual is the container for the soul. Without ritual, we live only from the neck up.”
Ritual draws us out of our busy minds
and back into our bodies —
the only place safety, presence, and wholeness can truly live.
Ritual returns meaning to the ordinary.
Ritual slows us enough to feel ourselves again.
Ritual helps the body exhale.
Tea is one of the simplest, most accessible grounding practices we have.
It awakens the senses — warmth, scent, colour, breath — and gently returns us to the ground of our being.
A cup becomes a doorway:
back to your breath
back to your centre
back to your body
back to your anchor of safety
Drinking tea as ritual is something you practise.
A way of coming home to yourself again and again.
Meet the BODY Tea Blend
(Ingredients & Benefits)
A warming, earthy, grounding blend of turmeric root, ginger, cinnamon, lemon myrtle, tulsi, liquorice, and black pepper.
This tea is crafted to bring you into your body —
warming your core, calming your system, easing tension, and anchoring your presence.
Each herb works together as a nervous-system balm:
TURMERIC — The Inner Fire Healer
Nature’s anti-inflammatory, helping you soften tension and soothe the body from the inside out.
GINGER — The Grounding Heat
A warming tonic that supports digestion, circulation, and embodied presence.
LIQUORICE — The Sweet Softener
Gently modulates stress, soothes the system, and brings emotional ease.
TULSI (Holy Basil) — The Sacred Calmer
An ancient Ayurvedic herb known as “the elixir of life” for its ability to settle the mind and restore balance.
LEMON MYRTLE — The Clearer of the Senses
Fresh, bright, uplifting — clearing stagnancy and awakening gentle clarity.
CINNAMON — The Vitality Spark
Improves circulation, energy, and inner warmth — helping you return to your centre.
BLACK PEPPER — The Activator
Helps your body absorb turmeric’s healing properties, deepening the grounding effect.
This is a warm, safe, nourishing tea designed to help you land in your body through warmth, presence, and slow embodiment.

Self-Inquiry Questions
What sensations or feelings are present in my body right now, and what might they be trying to communicate to me?
Where in my body do I feel most grounded, settled, or supported — even if it’s subtle?
What would help my body feel just 5% safer, softer, or more held today?
When to Ritual (Morning or Evening?)
The best time… is the time you actually show up.
You can habit-stack this ritual with:
reading, journalling, stretching, meditation, or breathwork.
Morning Ritual
Anchor yourself before the day begins (especially if you wake feeling anxious or scattered).
Evening Ritual
Unwind, soften, ground, and release the day from your body.
Perfect for women with sensitive systems or busy minds who are always on the go.
Spiritual Properties of the BODY Blend

Turmeric connects you to inner strength and purification
Ginger awakens life force and grounds the spirit
Cinnamon calls in warmth, vitality, and resilience
Tulsi brings clarity, peace, and spiritual grounding
