LARKSPUR, CALIF. (September 27, 2021) – The Republic of Tea, leading purveyor of premium teas and herbs, is delighted to announce its newest tea collection: a collaboration with Calm, the leading mental wellness brand. The three new blends – Focus, Relax, and Rest – are specifically formulated with unique combinations of soothing teas and herbs like Rooibos, Dandelion, Chamomile, and Lion’s Mane, to inspire Citizens (customers) to sip and savor as a part of their daily wellness and self-care practices.
With every purchase of these great-tasting teas, comes an additional special value – a complimentary two-week trial to the Calm app to enhance the sipping experience with mental well-being. Uniquely, each Calm tea also features a thoughtful, custom meditation on its artful label that complements its function to support focus, relaxation, or rest, respectively – created exclusively for The Republic of Tea.
“The Republic of Tea is inspired by Calm’s mission to make the world happier and healthier,” said Kristina Tucker, Minister of Enlightenment and Commerce at The Republic of Tea. “As part of our Healthy Minister (employee) program, every employee has a subscription to Calm. We believe that healthy Ministers create a fulfilling and prosperous work environment which boosts creativity and innovation, furthering the importance of mental wellness in the workplace.”
Tucker added, “There is a practice we refer to at The Republic of Tea called TeaMind®: a state of calm alertness where we have the ability to appreciate the perfection, the harmony, the natural serenity and the true aesthetic in every moment in every natural thing. A daily meditation and calming tea ritual is the perfect pairing to further strengthen and support this philosophy.”
