So today I
tried a tea just for its name – Dragonfly Song tea. How lovely does that sound?
It’s a mix of lemon, mint & spearmint leaves that has a few benefits for
your health like: helps your immune system, improves your skin health and,
especially, gives you a bit of energy and helps you with your mood if you feel
a little down.
It should
go well with the next song, a song that I love, by the way. I even shared it
with one of my favorite people right when I found it, a few years ago, and she
loved it instantly. I’m talking about „King For A Day” by Pierce The Veil
featuring Kellin Quinn. It’s a post-hardcore, screamo track that’s about
getting pushed passed the breaking point and the fact that sometimes there are
too many things going thrugh your mind. But like the tea, it will raise your
mood, pump you up and enliven you with energy. Hope you enjoy it as much as I
do.
Kisses and
Go drink your tea, I’m already drinking mine.
I've already started my ritual
without you guys, and now I'm drinking my tea. This morning I woke up with the
taste of purple in my mouth and I thought that lavender tea would be the
perfect thing to drink to help me with my craving. It's a good thing that I had
the urge to buy it yesterday, for other reasons, but still, that was apparently
a very good thing to do. Even if what I had in mind for today did not happen,
let's hope tomorrow will be the day I'm going to do at least half of the things
that I'm not doing today, or something else that will make me happy.
Lavender has a nice smell and
even a better taste. It's a good choice for those days that are just mellow and
chill. Lavender is purple which is a very expressive color, is feminine,
graceful and very elegant. I like it even if it's not my favorite color anymore;
it used to be when I was little, but now I like it in other ways. Also it's the
color for Thursdays which has been my favorite day for the past three weeks.
Lavender is a medicinal plant and
doctors say that it can make wonders when you're in a bad state of mind, being
a very good antidepressant. They also say that lavender tea will make you feel
better, eliminating psychic problems and helping detoxify the body and will
maintain blood pressure at normal levels.
I'm certain that this tea with work
perfectly with the song "Gimme Your Love" by Morcheeba, a band from the
UK, formed in 1995 (I was 3 then and far way). They have a modern psychedelic sound.
This genre is one of my favorites. Trip-Hop can put you in motion and give
you a lift when you need it the most.
Now let's talk about the song.
"Gimme Your Love" it's
one of the singles from the album "Head up High". This song makes me
quite happy and makes me look at the world in a very pink/purple way. It has
some cute lyrics like "Take your time now, Or do it right now" that
can make you wonder about what could happen next. You can feel the drum kick
all thru the song and that makes it even sexier in my book. It could be one of
those songs where you can try the motion of the ocean but it's not necessary.
You can listen to this song and just be in your own world, like I'm doing right
now. It's a fantastic song that can make you feel really good because "Our
love's here to last" and who doesn't want that now and then?
So here are my choices for today.
Kisses and Go drink your tea, I'm
already drinking mine.
This is a song that I've loved for
the past four years. It's pretty sad, full of melancholic sounds, but it makes
me feel good although it’s the kind of song that you would listen to when you
feel down.
The song is called "Forever
Lost" and it's by God is an Astronaut. Weird name for a band, I know, but
I think this is actually one of my favorite names especially when it comes to
this music genre. It's called post-rock, the genre that I love the most. This
is what I listen to when I'm by myself. The band comes from Ireland and is
currently one of the world's biggest instrumental groups. And like all the
bands nowadays, they describe their music as "a photograph or a snapshot
of who we are in that moment of time". That's pretty great since I love
their music.
Like I said before I've known it
for the past four years or more. It's a beautiful, relaxing and moving, and
absolutely incredible song. It starts a little slow and kind of depressing, but
slowly begins building up more and more and by the first minute you are hooked.
It's a rollercoaster of emotions. The last 2 minutes build up to the point
where you can't let go and you shouldn't. I absolutely adore this song and I
wanted to share this experience with you.
Since this could be a song that you
listen to when you're down, I think it will pair up nicely with a citrus
tea, like orange or lemon, or even better, try honey lemon tea.
Because the scent of citrus has
been proven to boost your mood, and tanks to the high level of antioxidants
found in tea, this makes a far better choice for the blues than a bottle of
Jack Daniel's or a bucket of ice cream, even though you sometimes need that
too.
Citrus has a lot of benefits, and
in combination with tea all those benefits are doubled. That makes them a must-have,
a must-try of the day.
Here is how you should make it, and
the ingredients you need:
1 cup of water
2 teaspoons of honey
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
Heat the water, but don't bring it
to a boil, then add the honey and the lemon juice and mix until the honey
dissolves. That is it. If you want it to be sweeter add sugar.
