Afternoon Snack

By mid-afternoon, something very specific happens.

The mind begins to dull and grow sleepy.
The body wants a little lift, usually with a snack.
The spirit glances at the clock in the office and thinks, Surely it’s snack/tea time somewhere.

And that is precisely when three co-workers,  Black Tea, Jasmine, and Bergamot found themselves in the same office kitchen, each looking for a quick pick-me-up.

Black Tea arrived first, of course. He's dependable, capable and slightly overworked. Entering the break room, he loosened his tie, rolled up his sleeves, cracked his neck left and right and said, “Right then. Let’s find something to get through the rest of the day.”

Jasmine floated into the room next, almost unnoticed at first. She didn’t need caffeine—she was longing for something to center her instead. She leaned against the counter, breathing in, reminding everyone that not everything needed to be done urgently to be done well.

Next, Bergamot burst through the door next, bright-eyed and enthusiastic, bringing sunshine in human form. “Well!” Bergamot exclaimed. “This place needs a mood adjustment.”

And just like that, afternoon tea was born.

Black Tea provides the backbone—the structure. He sharpens focus, restores momentum, and says, "You’ve got this.”

Jasmine softens the edges. She calms frayed nerves, opens the heart, and reminds everyone to breathe between tasks.

Bergamot lifts the whole room. He brightens moods, clears mental fog, and turns the afternoon slump into something almost… enjoyable.

Together, they form the perfect trio for that long moment between lunch and the end of the day—when energy dips but giving up is not an option.  With this trio you feel alert but relaxed and focused without pressure.

Energetically, this blend activates:

• the solar plexus (confidence, momentum)

• the heart (emotional balance)

• the third eye (clarity and insight)

Black Tea grounds, Jasmine listens, Bergamot inspires, and somewhere between the first sip and the last, the afternoon stops feeling heavy and starts feeling possible again.

As they gathered their mugs and returned to their desks, the trio left behind a simple truth:

“You don’t need to push harder. You just need to find the right support.”

Here’s to afternoon tea— to unexpected meetings, perfectly timed pick-me-ups, and the synergy that happens when the right energies mingle together at the right moment.

With warmth, humor and deep intention, your tea-totaling sommelier,
