Innovative new beverages with a variety of unique ingredients have found their way to New York City consumers. Rather than seeing tea and other similar beverages as separate from all the different foods individuals eat, those beverages are now being measured by the same standards.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A white paper recently published by the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.worldteaexpo.com\/en\/home.html\">World Tea Expo<\/a> examined several industry issues that are projected to impact the future of the industry. According to the document, New York City consumers want the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>convenience: hot and cold options, easy to consume on the go, anytime and anywhere<\/li><li>nutrient density and health potential: organic farming, regenerative agriculture and zero waste<\/li><li>consciousness: supporting a system that that has a positive impact; <a href=\"https:\/\/marchenyc.com\/sustainability.php\">sustainability<\/a> and Fair Trade<\/li><li>ingredients: no sugar, organic, nutritious and functional<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>While all these characteristics are important, functional ingredients stand out as a smart way to combine the enjoyment of drinking tea with positive health benefits such as an increase in energy or relaxation.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With at least 80 percent of Americans experiencing stress daily and struggling to relax their bodies and calm their minds, the chance of illnesses occurring increases. But a reduction in stress can help combat many of them including heart disease, high blood pressure, chronic pain and poor sleep.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Relaxing with a cup of tea can reduce stress on its own, but when it\u2019s combined with practicing mindfulness, the health benefits grow to include a reduction in stress and anxiety, improved attention and memory and better self-regulation and empathy.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/marchenyc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/AdobeStock_62895545-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Tea in New York City\" class=\"wp-image-658\" srcset=\"https:\/\/marchenyc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/AdobeStock_62895545-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/marchenyc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/AdobeStock_62895545-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/marchenyc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/AdobeStock_62895545-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/marchenyc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/AdobeStock_62895545.jpg 1555w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>What exactly is mindfulness? It\u2019s the ability to be fully present or being aware of what\u2019s going on without becoming overwhelmed. A different way to look at it is noticing all one\u2019s thoughts and emotions without making judgments about them.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Incorporating mindfulness opportunities into the workday is beneficial for both employees and employers. New York City employees who are healthier and have less stress not only develop better connections with others including their colleagues but are also more productive.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To increase the likelihood that employees can practice mindfulness (and enjoy <a href=\"https:\/\/marchenyc.com\/coffee.php\">hot beverages<\/a>), employers need to step up and provide a variety of relaxing environments from quiet corners to break rooms with comfortable seating options. <a href=\"https:\/\/marchenyc.com\/products.php\">Healthy snacks<\/a> and fresh food in the break room will also help employees manage their health.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the 2019 ends and 2020 approaches, how will your organization help employees reduce stress, improve their diet and find small moments to practice mindfulness? We here to help design a break room that encourages mindfulness and to create a customized refreshment menu with everyone\u2019s favorite choices.
