May is Mental Health Awareness Month—a time to slow down and explore ways to feel more grounded, balanced, and at peace. At Bula Kava House, we believe in the power of natural stress relief to support well-being, and there’s one root we keep coming back to: kava.
Whether you're new to the world of kava or a seasoned kavasseur, this ancient brew has a lot to offer. So, let’s talk about how drinking kava tea can be a simple way to support your mind and mood.
What Is Kava, Anyway?
Kava (pronounced kah-vah) is made from the root of the Piper methysticum plant, native to the South Pacific. For generations, people in places like Vanuatu, Fiji, and Hawaii have prepared and shared kava during ceremonies and social gatherings. It’s traditionally consumed to promote relaxation, connection, and a sense of calm—minus the hangover. Think of it as nature’s original “unwind” button.
Say Hello to Natural Stress Relief
With so many stress relief options out there, it’s refreshing to find something rooted (literally) in tradition. Drinking kava as a stress relief tea means giving your mind and body what they need, without the harsh side effects. Kava helps take the edge off and invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with the present moment.
Whether you enjoy a shell in the morning to set a calm tone for the day, or in the evening to wind down after a long one, kava fits easily into your routine.
