Celestial Seasonings
Hi everyone! Hope you’re having a wonderful day. As you know, I received a package from the lovely people at Celestial Seasonings last week.
They sent me a plethora of teas and goodies, a mug and this book:
I’m especially excited about this because I try to use natural remedies whenever possible and avoid taking medication when I’m sick. I’d much rather feast on fresh organic produce, drink lots of tea and juice.

Upset stomach, headaches and um…loose bowels. All of which tend to happen when I’m stressed(all the time due to work).
I’m blessed regardless. 🙂
I keep terrible allergies all year long with runny nose, coughing and sneezing. I would very much appreciate trying your tea.
Between working part time, going to school full time, going to the gym to train for my 1/2 marathon, and still trying to be social I think that this is what I need:
I’m feeling run down.

* Revitalizing and refreshing flavors like orange peel and spearmint

I am feeling rather run down and would love to try a tea that would make that feeling go away!
I ate way too many fatty foods and beer yesterday for Superbowl and today my tummy is paying for it 🙁 I am feeling bloated, sluggish and very run-down today!!
could realllly use the ‘my tummy hurts/i’m feeling bloated.’ dealt w/ ibs nearly my entire life, and any relief is welcome! ppl must think i’m pregos sometimes, the way my belly bloats.
and we can all use a little ‘i’m feeling run down’ pick-me-up!
i cant sleep! for some reason i have the hardest time falling asleep lately
I have a very difficult time falling asleep at night if I know I have to get up in the morning. Every night before bed I drink a hot, steaming cup of Celestial Seasoning Sleeptime Extra sleep. It almost always does the trick! I would love to try their other flavors!
I’m a little ashamed to say I could use some AM Detox after a Superbowl party I attended last night. I also have a super sensitive stomach, so Tummy Mint might work wonders for me. I love my tea and love natural remedies as well!
oh am i in need of some energy! I am looking forward to trying the ginseng energy even if i dont win this giveaway 😉
oh i am desperate for tea!! i haven’t gotten much sleep my puupy is sick and i have been staying up to finish papers for school and it’s causing so many headaches!!!!
I could definitely use some tea for tummy issues as well as an ENERGY boost!!
I have indoor and outdoor allergies, so basically all year, all the time. And I have acid reflux, with a bad bout happening the past few days (heartburn and sour stomach, very painful actually). And who couldn’t use an energy boost? 🙂
Thanks for the giveaway!
I could use the Ginseng Energy or AM Detox. I need energy! My grandfather just had a stroke and a heart attack on Thursday, my sister-in-law had surgery on Friday and my 17-year-old brother-in-law has somehow (no one knows yet and tests are inconclusive) lost his memory and recollection of who people are. 🙁
Obviously, I could use a little boost and detox to keep me mentally fresh and sane through these crazy, draining days.
Feeling a little rundown and stressed out right now… Grad school is wearing me down!
I’m feeling run down (from this darn cold!) and have a scratchy throat 🙁
My symptons this week are stuffy nose, headache, tummy issues..and just overrall run down. Some of it is from the yearly cold/flu, some from the tons of volunteer work and taking care of three kids..including my youngest special needs kiddo. A cup of tea is just what the doctor ordered!
STRESS — I’m working and completing the prerequisites for medical school…and it’s one busy life.
Hey, such a great giveaway!!! Well, I’ve been staying in a hotel for a 4 day long training. Blah- run down from keeping a schedule in a different time zone and bloated (bloaty I like to say) from eating out more than usual.
Knock on wood – I am feeling fine and would like to stay this way!!! Gimme some Antioxidant Supplement Green Tea please! Could be I drink Green Tea everyday since I’m trying to get off coffee train (BTW… the green team is helping)
Feeling very run down from the stress of grad school. I could use some real rest as well and something for this headache!
I have no energy. It’s monday and I’m already completely sapped. Green tea is a savior!
I have NO energy – ever!!! Need some tea help!
I’ve had a dry scratchy throat for a few weeks now…I think its the dry air at work.
I love Sleepytime Extra. I helps when me sleep through the night. I would like to try their green tea and ginseng tea for daytime energy!
I have been over-indulging since…erm…last year (haha) and I desperately need to cleanse and boost my immune system at the same time because all the bad food and slothfulness had made me feel bloated, run down and just “mucky” on the inside. Plus, I love tea!
Celestial is my favorite tea in the whole world!!! I swear I am always bloated ugh, would love to try a natural remedy. Just drinking more water doesn’t work for me. also this semester has been crazy busy so I often feel just run down in general.
i guess my main thing is not getting to sleep on time. i’m a big fan of sleepytime / chamomile type teas for that reason.
I keep a box of Celestial tea at the office & a box at home. I love them! With all of this weird Texas weather (rain, cold .. blah)I have been catching colds left & right. Can’t wait to start feeling better! 🙂
I work night shifts and have SO MUCH trouble getting back into a regular sleep routine on my 4 days off!!
I’ve been really fatigued lately and would love a little tea pick me up!
i wake up in the morning with a sore, scratchy throat, which does not go away until late afternoon.
I’m starting to get sick with the rain around here.
I feel bloated after dinner for some reason
although I don’t overeat :/
Feeling run down since I average about 4-6hrs of sleep each night since I’m a student with high ambitions!
I love Celestial tea….I’m currently drinking the Holiday sugar cookie (I ordered a few boxes online because I couldn’t find it in the store) and the Vanilla Sleepytime. Yum !
OMGoodness! I could use a remedy for stress, sleep deprivation, and trying to stay healthy! I am an avid tea drinker and love Celestial Seasonings!! Tea helps me relax, and warms me up on these cold evenings!
Help!! Started with H1N1, then it turned into Bronchitis! I work in healthcare so I had to take 3 days of sick leave:( There goes my winter vacation. Oh well. Sure could use some tea! And other goodies!!!
I’ve been having a lot of trouble sleeping and its starting to affect my health 🙁 I’d love some tea to help me relax!
Sore throat, headache, fluid in ears 🙁 I would love some tea!!
i can’t stay asleep at night!
I feel cold feet and hands during winter time!!!! I need to have something warm all the time!!! love their chai! 🙂
I suffer from IBS and I get horrible bloating all month long 🙁 it’s not just unnattractive, it’s painful! i also feel runned down and fatigued all the time. i actually think i fell asleep typing this!
• I suffer from IBS and I get horrible bloating all month long it’s not just unattractive, it’s painful! i also feel run down and fatigued all the time. i actually think i fell asleep typing this!
