Celestial Seasonings

Celestial Seasonings teas: yum, yum, yum, yum, yum. These teas have got to be some of the best “inventions” on the planet. I recall my first experience with Celestial Seasonings teas. The flavor was Lemon Zinger and I thought I had died and gone to lemon lollipop heaven. Better even than that miraculous hot lemonade cold medication, the lemon-flavored Celestial Seasonings made me warm up after the outside winter trek I had done power-walking for an hour, and made me unusually apathetic about snack foods that night. In other words, as a typically big snacker, I didn’t need any cookies or candy that night, as the tea had this fulfilling, satisfying characteristic.

The next report I might make on the wonder of Celestial Seasonings is in regards to the Sleepytime tea. At least ten years ago, when I was going to grad school classes at night, working three jobs, and doing student teaching and other gigs, I would get so jacked up that the few hours I had to sleep were hard to come by. I tried Sleepytime and fell immediately to sleep. Well, not with the cup in my hand, but close to it. By the time I had consumed a half a cup, I was lulled into the calm required to turn off lights and close eyes—and stop obsessing over the papers, reading, errands, tasks, and relationships needing attending to.

And this many years later, after being diagnosed with and getting medicated for ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder), I can speak to the “magic” of Celestial Seasonings Sleepytime and other herbal teas without exaggeration: the ones that are developed/grown to help calm and foster sleep really do just that. In other words, if a wired-for-sound, 17-hour-a-day person can fall into peaceful slumber over a cup of tea, anyone needing rest/sleep can.

And though I am disappointed I did not get the chance to suggest it first, my brother-in-law has taken to drinking Celestial Seasonings teas—as a replacement for the wine he was consuming a bit too much of. After getting clean and sober, after attending therapy, he now, my sister reports, has forsaken all alcohol and is “addicted to” Celestia Seasonings teas. Hey, that Morning Thunder? Or was it Red Zinger? Elaine (on Seinfeld) tells George Jerry drinks and loves (though Jerry does not do caffeine) it. She says he doesn’t realize it has caffeine, but walks around all day, saying, “I feel great!”

So if a speedy freak swears by Celestial Seasonings’ calming powers, a reformed/reforming alcoholic who is devoted now to Celestial Seasonings speaks to the substitution possibilities, and the greatest comic of all time who is reportedly (as a character, of course) not a caffeine drinker but loves the Celestial Seasonings caffeinated tea, you surely must be in good company with the millions who love their many-flavored, many propertied teas. Yummay!
