Headache Relief Blend
When your head starts to pound, you can turn to this blend full of cooling, tension-relieving herbs.
Flavor Profile:
Mint, citrus, floral, earthy notes
Herb Information:
*Peppermint: An especially cooling, refreshing herb
*Catnip: While catnip is a stimulant for cats, it’s actually one of the most soothing herbs for humans, easing internal stress and spasms.
*Passionflower: Relieves muscle spasms and nervous tension
*Lemon Balm: A cooling, antiviral herb that helps relieve tension and treat fevers
Brewing Instructions:
Prepare an infusion. Place 2 tsp herbs in a glass bowl or jar with a lid, or a ceramic teapot with a lid. Bring water to a boil, then shut off heat and pour water over the herbs. Place the lid over the bowl, jar, or teapot and let steep for at least 20 minutes. The lid helps trap the volatile oils in the herbs that carry the most potent medicine! You can also steep this overnight at either room temp or in the fridge after the liquid reaches room temp.
Kristina’s Preparation Recommendations:
This blend is beautiful on its own, but you can add a spoonful of raw honey. I brew this tea whenever I feel a headache coming on. Savor every sip; let the peppermint and lemon balm cool you down while the catnip and passionflower relieve tension from the physical and emotional brain space.
