Valeriana wallichii, or Indian valerian, is a perennial herb which grows throughout India and the Himalayas. It can be interchanged with Valeriana officinalis, or garden valerian, common to Europe and Asia. The root of the herb has been used traditionally in Ayurvedic medicine for its sedative properties. Many choose valerian to treat headaches, stress and anxiety due to the sense of relaxation it promotes. As an aromatic herb, it is also often used for its carminative properties.

While valerian root may be used to get a good night’s rest, it is not advisable to use as a long-term treatment for clinically diagnosed insomnia. For those who do not have diagnosed sleep disorders and are looking for a peaceful night’s sleep, it is best to use valerian root regularly as opposed to as needed* – consistency is key! Since this herbal brew does have a pungent taste and smell, we suggest brewing it with another herbal tea like chamomile or peppermint or using lemon or honey to taste.

These tea bags have a noticeably earthy, grounding aroma that I actually look forward to each night. Steeped for ten minutes, it's become the calm signal my brain finally recognizes before bed.

Thomas B. ★★★★★

The Himalayan origin is what sold me, and the tea bags steep into a surprisingly earthy, calming cup. After a week of nightly use, I'm falling asleep about twenty minutes faster and staying asleep longer.

Abigail K. ★★★★★

I’ve tried other sleep teas that barely make a dent, but this Indian valerian blend actually has me dozing off within half an hour of finishing the cup. The dried root pieces are visible in the bag, which feels reassuringly potent compared to the dusty powders I’ve used before. Only downside is the
