Rae’s Rose Release Tea
- 3 parts Rose petals
- 2 parts Lavender
- 1 part Green tea
- Honey to taste
First, I ground everything together in my mortar and pestle, the entire time directing my energy and the intention of tension/stress release into the motion.
Then, I let it steep for 5min before stirring in my desired amount of honey. Before drinking, I held the cup in my hands with my eyes closed, allowing the warmth and peace to seep in. Then I enjoyed it.
I’ve found that this little “ritual” helps ease the tension in my body and the weight on my shoulders. I hope it helps you, too!
