Happy November! As we move deeper into the dark and chilly weather, I thought I’d share a tip or two for Ayurvedic self care.
💝Did you know warm, spicy-sweet Cardamom has long been used to support the respiratory system? Its essential oil is well known for its mucolytic and expectorant properties, helping to loosen and clear phlegm, congestion, and excess mucus from the lungs and airways.
⭐️Energetically, Cardamom is both warming and drying, making it particularly beneficial for cold, damp respiratory conditions that weigh down the breath.
🍯A lovely way to use this beneficial herb is to mix Cardamom powder into raw honey to create a delicious electuary – a spoonful makes a tasty heartwarming tonic or a soothing tea when stirred into hot water!
💆🏻♀️Another tip, schedule yourself a nourishing Energetic Abhyanga Session! Let’s warm you up with an exfoliating dry brush and soothe away stress, aches and pains with a lymphatic supporting oily body treatment!
