Herbs of all kinds have wonderful properties and uses. I like Sage & Lavender as Tea or for Smudging to cleanse negativity attached to me, or in a home. Ill have to pick up some Peppermint and make a Nice Tea, could always use a Cleansing from Negativity picked up during the day. I'm thinking of trying Peppermint, Sage, & Lavender as a Tea, Triple whammy of a cleanse lol Rainbow

Many Blessings

After you asked the question d-knots about Lavender, i was like oh no Shocked i never actually read whether Lavender tea was safe or not. Drinking it for the first time, i got a very purifying feeling inside. It became one of my favorite teas. I have a difficult time growing Lavender, not sure why or i would have some stocked up for the winter months. Didn't realize how many Benefits Lavender has.

Many Blessings

I shall try Lavender tea!

When I am under the weather, I mail or text my friend and she does the same when she is down.
Then we usually go for a walk that evening after work, along the beach or in the woods and talk it out.

I am so lucky to have found this friend, we are so alike its uncanny, but great cos we understand each other.

I too am not sure about lavender as a tea.

Try nettle tea, you can buy it loose or in bags.

Benefits of Nettle Tea:
•This tea is made from leaves that are rich in vitamins A, B1, B5, C, D, E and K, iron, potassium, copper, zinc, magnesium, calcium and others. It also contains flavonoids, essential amino acids and proteins.

•The high levels of iron present in the tea are essential to improve blood circulation and to lower blood pressure. Acting as a diuretic nettle tea eliminates sodium from your body. It also decreases sugar levels in the blood.

•Again iron makes this tea anti-anemic improving on the overall well being of your organism.

•This tea is the right choice for helping in cases of physical and mental exhaustion. It stimulates your appetite, helping you to regain your strength in a healthy way.

•It builds up a natural defense mechanism in your body as well as eliminating viruses and bacterial infections.

•Nettle tea also helps with respiratory problems by fighting coughs, tuberculosis and asthma, clearing your lungs when you most need it.

•If you have intestinal disorders, nettle tea is recommended. It also helps with cases of dysentery, diarrhea, hemorrhoids and it is good for aiding the treatment of liver, bile and spleen diseases. It has a slight laxative effect, so best not to overdo it.

•Nettle tea may treat urinary infections, kidney inflammations and help prevent water retention. It helps to dissolve kidney stones and being a blood purifier, driving toxins from your body.
