Yogi’s history is rooted in Ayurveda, the holistic teachings that focus on achieving balance between the body and mind. For many of us, achieving this mind-body balance in today’s fast-paced, over-stimulating world can prove to be quite difficult. Thankfully, a number of Ayurvedic herbs – such as Lavender, Kava, Valerian, Chamomile, and Helichrysum – offer natural support for those seeking a moment of rest and relaxation. And, because the teachings of Ayurveda continue to inform how we develop our products; you’ll find these herbs in many Yogi teas, particularly our Sleep & Stress Relief teas.
