Title is basically it.
For me, it’s usually coffee, or anything spicy, like cayenne pepper. Apple cider vinegar usually does it, too.
Grounding?
A lot of tea for me, especially earthy flavors. Shou Puerh tea is like a magical grounding experience for me every time I drink it. I love coffee and drink that daily, but when I really need to just be I break into the puerh stash.
For evenings I like a lot of herbal teas. Rooibos is probably my favorite. Lately I have been drinking a lot of lemon ginger tea with a splash of apple cider vinegar before bed.
Iron or copper.
I don’t think I’ve ever considered this before. How interesting.
My first thought is mushrooms. I think it’s the umami of them specifically. Totally unrelated, but I also think bourbon & Scotch would qualify. I tend to be very intentional when I’m in the (infrequent) mood for strong spirits, and it tends to be a quiet evening with a fire and/ or instrumental jazz.
That’s a thing? Like relaxing? I don’t think I have experienced that.
