Why We Put Affirmations on Every Packet of Tea

Let’s be honest, life is full. Mornings rush by, inboxes overflow, and sometimes the best part of the day is when you finally get to sit down and sip something warm. At Kind Tea, we believe tea is more than just a drink. It’s a daily ritual, a tiny pause, and we wanted to make that pause even more meaningful.

That’s why every single packet of Kind Tea comes with a little affirmation, a gentle reminder to speak kindly to yourself.

We didn’t do it to be cute (although yes, they’re cute). We did it because we’ve felt that shift ourselves, how the words you read, say, and believe can change how you carry yourself through the world. And we thought, why not use something as ordinary as tea to deliver something a little extraordinary?

A sip of kindness, inside and out

Our affirmations aren’t just feel-good fluff. They’re grounded in the idea that kindness, especially self-kindness, creates ripples. When you start your day with the words “I am doing my best, and that is enough,” you’re not just calming your nervous system. You’re softening the way you treat yourself, and likely, the people around you too.

Tiny rituals, big impact

You don’t need a three-hour morning routine to change your life (but if you have one, we love that for you). Sometimes, all it takes is:

• putting the kettle on

• choosing your tea with intention

• reading your affirmation out loud (or quietly, if your house is still half-asleep)

• taking that first sip

That’s it. That’s a ritual. And if you do it often enough, it becomes an anchor — a moment that’s yours, no matter what else the day throws at you.
