Abonnement de thé : le cadeau parfait des entreprises et des relations professionnelles

A good relationship with your customers and employees is built on respect and mutual trust.

That said, it can sometimes be complicated to know exactly what to offer as a gift to your customers and your employees. Yes, when you meet them, you can offer them a dinner in a restaurant, a classic that allows for the exchange and deepening of bonds and trust. But when it comes to marking your appreciation in the form of thanks, without adding the meeting and the conversation, how to choose the perfect gift?

Because in our time, the subject is delicate! Sweets and chocolates are to be avoided for diets, diabetes and health problems. Local products must be careful not to trigger allergies ... or to go against ethical or religious values. Serrano ham is an excellent delicacy, but certainly not to the taste of your vegetarian customers or your Jewish or Muslim collaborators! And sending them an inexpensive item will often be seen as pure marketing ... What to do?

Our modest but clever proposal: offer a tea subscription as an appreciation. As long as you have some water to boil, tea is a perfect and all-round gift. No calories, a bunch of health benefits, easy to prepare and available in a vast sample of flavors, the tea manages to match most tastes without the inconvenience!

In addition, the advantage of a tea subscription is that it stretches over time. Thus, every month that your customer or collaborator receives an assortment of tea from you, he or she will inevitably think of you well. By remembering the positive memory of your company in their mind, you increase the chances of them coming back to make extra purchases in your company! This is called a gift that keeps giving!

After Cleopatra's donkey milk bath, the tea bath

The end-of-day sweetness you deserve

The suggestion seems straight out of an exotic spa. Chocolate massage, tea bath, pine sauna room ... Yes, without a doubt, we would not be surprised to see a green tea bath formula appear in the program of a day detox and well-being!

Besides, what would prevent us from letting one of these baths "good for the body and for the soul" sink at the end of a long day? A good bath has always been a privileged way to unwind and relax. Only, instead of putting foam on it, you'll put five or six bags of green tea this time! Fifteen to twenty minutes of waiting will be necessary.

In case you wonder why:

A cocktail of antioxidants and detox to tame, inside and out!

Green tea does not have a good taste and a good effect on your digestion and your cells: it also contains a ton of antioxidants helpful that help keep your body young and healthy. This goes for your skin too! Not only does its properties help fight wrinkles and the harmful effects of the sun: a green tea bath will also help you relax your sore muscles and accelerate the healing of certain sores and wounds, thanks to its anti-inflammatory properties.

In addition, the green tea bath will allow you to revitalize your skin! With the detoxifying effects we love so much, tea cleanses your skin deeply and restores radiance to your pores and elasticity to your skin. In addition, the vitamin B contained in the tea will soften your skin - and your worries! Because, little more sweetness, tea in general is known to lower the levels of cortisol - and therefore, by extension, stress. We open a bottle of red and relax!

Goodbye wrinkles: Drink to your health and your youth!

Of all the benefits of tea, one of the most surprising is perhaps its anti-wrinkle effect. After all, as it is a beverage that is ingested and slowly making its way into our digestive system and, subsequently, into our system and our metabolism, it is easy to understand that tea benefits our "temple and its effects on our health are multiple.

But how does drinking tea delay the formation of wrinkles - or reduce the crow's feet that we already have?

Not just a drink!

Surprise! Those who praise the benefits of tea do not boast that ritual and ingestion after a meal. Although you have already put wet tea bags on your eyes to clear your dark circles, you probably already knew.

 Numerous researches, both on animals and on humans, have shown that the topical application of tea reduces the harmful effects of the sun on the skin. And tea has not only pleasant after-sun effects: it has been proven that tea provides UV protection. This can be effective on days when you forget your sunscreen!

The secrets of an elixir of youth

What are the mechanisms of this anti-wrinkle effect? The answer lies in the many properties of tea. In general, antioxidants and anti-inflammatories are the most common "workers" of youth, and they are legion in your cup of tea!

Let us also note that the phenomena attributed to old age are related to a certain dehydration of the body. The cells lose their water and elasticity at the same time, so wrinkles are formed. This is why moisturizing creams are the usual anti-wrinkle formulas and this is partly why the sun has an aging effect.
But tea is also very moisturizing! By drinking your tea daily, you allow your body to regenerate deeply.

Why incorporate tea into your beauty rituals!

Break your wrinkles with tea as a sword!

Aging should not cause so much panic. However, with all the associated health problems, getting older is a widespread concern. Moreover, with the beauty standards we are bombarding with movies and the media, keeping a young face is a priority for many women - and, more and more, this obsession with youth is also affecting men!

If keeping a smooth and elastic skin is important for you (it is for us!), Industries have made your priorities a livelihood: anti-aging cream, facelift, supplements ... These miraculous promises are expensive and rarely fill the only role they intended to fill.

On the other hand, thanks to its antioxidant, moisturizing and anti-inflammatory properties, tea restores youth and vigor to your skin. By detoxifying and rehydrating, you'll enjoy soft skin - and all the other benefits of tea!

Bath in the tea

The tea bath is not only a pleasure of relaxation: its detoxifying and revitalizing virtues will also help you to make a beauty, from head to toe! Who needs to go to the spa when you have a bathtub and some tea bags at home? A bath of tea will detoxify your pores and your skin, which will serve to give you a resplendent look. Go a little further and enjoy this unusual moment of relaxation to exfoliate your skin and moisturize you with coconut oil at the end of the bath. Who needs super expensive chemical creams to take care of your skin?

Tea to massage

Anyone who has ever received a professional massage knows that the sensations are not only divine: once your muscles are requinqué, the whole life seems to you more simple and beautiful, and your body rested, free from fatigue, increases your capital beauty. For a long time now, massage parlors have been offering tea cups to clients before or after the session to help their bodies relax and regenerate. However, since we understood the virtues of the application of tea on the skin, tea massages are gaining momentum! The caffeine contained fight against the fat cells, the leaves purifies the skin - in short, the massage experience is a must for any day well-being and beauty!

Une tasse réconfortante : thé et bien-être

Tasse de thé

Votre beauté se compte dans vos feuilles de thé!

Vous avez sans doute déjà entendu dire que le thé vert est bon pour la digestion ou qu’il aide à réguler votre taux de sucre. Peut-être avez-vous entendu parler des recherches indiquant certains effets contre le cancer et les problèmes cardiovasculaires.

Mais saviez-vous que le thé joue aussi un rôle dans votre beauté?

En effet, le thé est un cocktail d’antioxydants qui vous permet de garder un air jeune et beau longtemps! En combattant contre le vieillissement des cellules et la formation des graisses, le thé vous aide à obtenir un corps resplendissant de santé et de vitalité – et les vitamines vous gardent aussi une peau lisse et souple.

Et tout ça grâce à un breuvage savoureux à 0 calories!

La paix du matin à chaque infusion

Le thé, c’est aussi un rituel de sérénité. Pensez un instant à la cérémonie du thé, telle qu’on la connait du Japon – des gestes posés, habiles et mesurés. Une atmosphère sereine et sérieuse. Pensez aussi à la tradition du thé en Angleterre – plusieurs sont les citoyens britanniques qui arrêteraient le cours du temps et le chaos d’une guerre pour pouvoir tranquillement siroter leur tasse de thé.

Et maintenant, pensez aussi au rituel du matin quotidien. Se réveiller, faire chauffer de l’eau, laisser le thé infuser tranquillement pour pouvoir relâcher ses saveurs… Pendant que la magie s’opère, vous avez le temps de vous étirer et de revenir à vos sens en douceur. Dans la préparation du thé, il y a l’attente et le calme. Rien à voir avec les gestes frénétiques et désordonnés de la quête de café le matin! Et l’effet sur votre corps diffère de manière très différente entre le thé et le café. Le café crée l’effet d’un coup de fouet : dès que vous le buvez, vos sens sont en alerte, agités, énervés. Le thé, au contraire, stimulera vos capacités intellectuelles mais son effet sera progressif. D’ailleurs, le thé n’a pas que des propriétés qui augmentent votre vigilance! Votre tasse de thé relâche également des effets anti-stress qui vous aideront à trouver la perspective désirée dans le calme et la sérénité.
