3 Reasons to Make Less Caffeine Your New Year’s Resolution

3 Reasons to Make Less Caffeine Your New Year’s Resolution

New year, new habits! As we step into 2025, it’s the perfect time to reflect on our routines and make positive changes. If you’re a coffee lover, you may be wondering if it’s possible to enjoy your favorite cup without relying on caffeine so heavily. The answer? Absolutely! 

Cutting back on caffeine doesn’t mean you have to give up the rich flavor of coffee you love. Whether you choose to go full decaf or find a balanced middle ground with half-caf, Savorista has you covered. Here are three reasons why making less caffeine your resolution could be a game-changer, and why our craft decaf and craft half-caf coffees are perfect choices for achieving that balance.

1. Say Goodbye to the Midday Crash

You know the drill: one too many cups of coffee in the morning, and by 2 p.m., you’re crashing hard. That midday slump can leave you feeling tired, cranky, and unproductive. The reason? The caffeine in your coffee wears off, leaving you low on energy. According to studies, caffeine leads to an increase in adrenaline, but once the effects wear off, it can result in a sudden drop in energy, leaving you feeling drained. Cutting back on caffeine can help you avoid that dreaded crash and maintain steady energy throughout the day.

2. Better Sleep, Better You

If you've ever had coffee late in the day and found it hard to sleep later, you're not alone. Even if you're not drinking coffee right before bed, caffeine can still mess with your sleep. It works by blocking adenosine, the chemical that helps you feel sleepy. Plus, caffeine stays in your system longer than you'd think—its half-life is usually around 6 to 8 hours, so it can affect your sleep even if you had that last cup in the afternoon. If you’re looking to sleep better, cutting back on caffeine later in the day is a good place to start.

3. Clearer Mind, Less Anxiety

For some, caffeine can bring on feelings of anxiety, jitteriness, or even make it harder to focus. Research has shown that high caffeine intake can increase symptoms of anxiety, especially for those who are sensitive to it. If you find yourself getting a bit too wired or anxious after a cup of caffeinated coffee, cutting back could help you find more mental clarity and calm.
