About the herbs...
 
 
Our exceptionally generous yet humble plant ally we know as green tea expands herself throughout almost every nation in the world, celebrated for centuries as a custom in multiple cultures. Beyond the caffeine most people rely on her for, she offers us anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, enhances brain performance, reduces the risk of various diseases and so much more!
 
 
Oat Straw's strengths lie in the field of mental heath matters, having the capacity to alleviate one's stress, symptoms of depression and anxiety. She is the true star of our show here being that studies prove oat straw to be highly effective in improving cognitive function and mood. And as we all know, our thoughts shape our reality - with a healthy state of mind, light shines on the cloudiest days!
 
 
Alongside mental alertness and fortitude, rosemary brings to the table a powerful force of protection. She is widely used as a purifying agent, be it in household cleaning products, hair and skincare, or in the practice of smudging (a traditional Native American method of using smoke from burning herbs to cleanse one's space from negative energy.)
 
 
Similar to rosemary, skullcap carries with her a protective essence. Being what is referred to as an anxiolytic herb, she has the ability to relax the nervous system, reducing agitation, anxiety and stress. Ultimitely, skullcap helps to clear out these lingering clouds of negativity, protecting our peace.
 
 
In the ancient medical system of Aryuveda, Holy Basil, or Tulsi, is used to restore balance and harmony in the mind, body and spirit. Similarly, it is a well respected herb among practitioners of Traditional Chinese Medicine as it is referred to as the “herb that nourishes the spirit” with its greatest physical benefits of restoring the nervous system, being a powerful corticosteroid with the ability to reduce circulating stress hormones in the body.
 
 
Lavender is highly demanded for her delicate, floral fragrance. However, perhaps we are drawn to lavender for more reasons other than simply the way she smells, rather what we physically and mentally experience when we smell her. According to research, breathing in the scent of lavender transmits messages to the limbic system, a brain region known to influence the nervous system. It is for this reason lavender is highly effective in regulating emotions. When ingested, additional benefits include reduction of inflammation, preventing a host of serious ailments, heart health support by lowering risk of strokes and heart attacks by its ability to reduce blood presure and ease tension on blood vessels, and detoxification of the body, eliminating toxins that can cause harmful side effects. 
 
 
Taking a moment to admire a rose will undoubtedly arouse euphoric sensations, and as so, drinking a cup of brewed rose petals promotes relaxation, calming the mind and reducing stress. It improves digestion, protects body from cell damage and helps ward off harmful microorganisms to prevent illness.
