Hot weather delay to chocolates orders: please note that due to the current heatwave, we are not expecting to dispatch chocolates until W/c 20th July because we want to ensure they arrive in mint condition. We will continue to dispatch tea and body, bath and home fragrance orders. Thank you for your patience.
This Mental Health Awareness week, we wanted to share the natural powers of peppermint. Known to have many therapeutic effects, one of these is its ability to lift moods.
In April 2016, researchers from the University of Northumbria’s Department of psychology published their findings that peppermint enhanced and aroused both mood and cognition, helping to improve long term memory, working memory and alertness. Whilst Studies at the Sense of Smell Institute confirm that peppermint oil has mood-elevating properties that make it useful for alleviating symptoms of anxiety and depression.
