A Cool Mint Herbal Tea of Wood Betony, Vervain & Peppermint
Headease Tea is a caffeine-free, loose-leaf herbal tea for a pause in a busy day, best taken after a meal. Wood betony, vervain and feverfew, all long grown in English herb gardens, are blended with peppermint, spearmint and lemon balm. Whole, cut herbs are used throughout, and each serving can be steeped twice.
The Herbs
Wood Betony a foundational nerve tonic, supporting blood flow to the head while easing feelings of light headedness and cognitive fatigue.
Feverfew traditionally used to support people who are prone to sudden, throbbing head discomfort and migraine-related responses.
Vervain calms the nervous system, easing the stress and tension that often leads to muscle tightening.
Peppermint and Spearmint provide a cooling sensation to ease localized pressure and soothing congested sinus passages.
Lemon Balm traditionally used for its gentle sedative action, soothing the stress-induced digestive issues that frequently accompany intense head discomfort.
Taste Profile: Bright and crisp, led by peppermint and spearmint, with soft herbaceous notes beneath and a clean, refreshing finish.
Weight: 40g loose leaf (makes approximately 30 cups)
Format: Loose leaf, for a teapot or infuser
Caffeine: Caffeine-free
Additives: No added flavourings, colourings or preservatives
Wood Betony (Stachys officinalis), Vervain (Verbena officinalis), Peppermint Leaf (Mentha x piperita), Spearmint Leaf (Mentha spicata), Feverfew (Tanacetum parthenium), Lemon Balm (Melissa officinalis)
Our Headease Tea is designed to be easily integrated into your daily routine to help maintain clarity and comfort:
The Infusion Method: Add 1 teaspoon of the loose herbs into a teapot or an infuser cup. Pour freshly boiled water directly over the blend. Cover immediately and let the herbs steep for 10–15 minutes. Strain, allow to cool to a comfortable drinking temperature, and enjoy.
Bonus Infusion: You can infuse the same serving of herbs a second time with boiling water to enjoy a subsequent cup later in the day.
When to Drink: To help keep head tension at bay, enjoy a warm cup after breakfast, lunch, or dinner. If you are experiencing active head discomfort, you can drink this infusion up to three times a day to help soothe your symptoms.

Health Notice
While most headaches are benign and related to everyday tension or fatigue, they can occasionally indicate more complex underlying health issues. It is important to stay informed and seek prompt medical advice from a qualified healthcare professional if your discomfort:
Feels entirely different from any previous head tension, or shows a clear, progressive worsening in how often or how severely it occurs.
Intensifies noticeably when you cough, sneeze, bend over, or make sudden movements.
Is accompanied by other neurological changes, such as altered vision or sensation, sudden weakness, loss of coordination, difficulty speaking, or unusual drowsiness and confusion.
Presents alongside other symptoms such as unexplained weight loss, a persistent fever, a stiff neck, skin rash, a red eye with halos around lights, or unexplained changes in blood pressure.
Begins suddenly after the age of 50, or comes with noticeable tenderness around your temples or pain in your jaw while chewing.
If you have a history of complex medical conditions or are currently taking immunosuppressant medications, please be extra observant and discuss any changing patterns with a healthcare professional.
Daily wellness habits
Pair with the Pulse Point: A touch of Zen Maitri Head Ease Pulse Point on the temples and the back of the neck while the tea steeps.
Prioritize Fluid Intake: Drink 2 to 3 litres of filtered water throughout the day.
Maintain Balanced Energy Levels: Limit excessive consumption of refined sugars, artificial sweeteners, and heavily processed foods. Eat regular, well-balanced meals containing high-quality proteins and complex carbohydrates.
Manage Caffeine Intake: Keep your consumption of coffee, energy drinks, and black teas stable.
Look Away from the Screen: Every twenty minutes or so, rest the eyes on something across the room. Limit your exposure to bright digital screens, especially in the evening.
Take Ten Quiet Minutes: A few slow breaths, or a short walk outside, in the middle of the day.
Feverfew is the herb most associated with headaches in British practice, and peppermint is the traditional choice for head tension. Headease Tea contains both, with wood betony, vervain, spearmint and lemon balm.
Feverfew (Tanacetum parthenium) is a small daisy-like plant of walls and waste ground, used in British herbal practice for headaches since the Middle Ages. It is bitter, which is why it is blended here with mints and lemon balm.
This functional herbal infusion has been carefully formulated by our Medical Herbalists to support head, neck and shoulder comfort and ease the physical symptoms associated with head tension, eye strain, sinus congestion, and mental fatigue.
This blend can be an excellent natural option to help ease everyday tension and support healthy cranial circulation. However, if you experience chronic or recurring head discomfort, we strongly recommend booking a comprehensive consultation with one of our Medical Herbalists to help identify and address underlying factors or seeking advice from a qualified medical professional. You can contact our team at info@zenmaitri.com for more information.
To help keep tension at bay, we recommend enjoying 1–2 cups per day, ideally after your main meals. If you are experiencing active discomfort, you can safely drink up to 3 cups throughout the day to help soothe your symptoms.
Feverfew is not suitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and is not suitable if you are allergic to plants in the daisy family — chamomile, ragweed, marigold. Speak to your doctor if you take anticoagulant medication.
We choose loose-leaf cuts because conventional paper tea bags often contain highly processed herbal dust that has lost its beneficial volatile oils, and they frequently contain hidden plastic sealants, glues, or chemical bleaches. Loose leaf ensures you receive the full natural potency of the plants while encouraging a more mindful brewing ritual.
Yes, all our teas are loose teas. We believe that all tea should be brewed and enjoyed without tea bags since it is better for the environment and because it facilitates a more mindful practice of drinking tea.
One 40g tin contains approximately 30 servings, depending on your preferred brewing strength. Because these high-quality botanicals are structurally dense, you can infuse each serving a second time later in the day.
Yes, this blend is entirely caffeine-free and can be enjoyed throughout the day or evening without disrupting your sleep patterns.
While the active botanical compounds remain stable if the tea cools down, our medical herbalists recommend drinking it warm. Warm liquids support healthy digestion and peripheral circulation, helping to maximize the delivery of the herbs throughout the body.
Yes, if they are frequent, severe, changed in pattern, or come with any visual disturbance, weakness or stiff neck. Please see your doctor rather than managing persistent headaches at home.
