Lavender

Lavender is celebrated for its calming and restorative properties, helping to ease stress, anxiety, and insomnia while promoting deep relaxation and restful sleep. Its natural anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial compounds make it effective for soothing skin irritations, burns, and minor infections, both in teas and topical applications. Lavender also supports healthy digestion by stimulating bile flow and relieving bloating, gas, and nausea. It may help improve circulation, reducing muscle cramps and spasms, and offers gentle pain relief for headaches, sore muscles, and arthritis discomfort. Known for its mood-boosting aroma, lavender essential oil can help uplift the spirit and reduce feelings of depression or tension. Rich in antioxidants and a natural source of vitamin A, lavender helps protect cells from oxidative stress and supports eye health.  Directions: Take 1 teaspoon of the herb and place it in a strainer while pouring 8oz of hot water over the herb.
