Default Sedative Effects of Tea

Hi all,

I've noticed that when drinking tea, specifically green (more specifically
Dragon's Well), I get into a tranquil and euphoric state. I feel as though
I've been tranquilized and do not want to move a limb. Is this mainly a
state of mind, or are there actually some chemical(s) in green tea that have
this effect. Anyone else notice this?

Thanks,
