Lavender and Rose are beautiful calming botanicals that can aid with sleep and are deeply relaxing. Reishi is one of our favourite fungi, not only does it have a broad range of adaptogenic properties that can improve immunity, the liver and more but it’s also a great tonic to calm the nervous system and sooth the spirit (Shen). To make the sleep enhancing effects stronger add Valerian tea.
- 1 tsp lavender
- 1 tbsp rose petals
- 2/3 cup coconut milk
- 1 tsp Evolution Botanicals Organic Reishi Extract
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
(add valerian for stronger sleep enhancing properties)
Steep the Lavender (sub valerian if needed) and Rose in 1/3 of a cup of hot water for 10 minutes. Strain water to remove the leaves and pour into a saucepan with the coconut milk and gently heat. Once warmed blend with Evolution Botanicals Organic Reishi Extract, vanilla and then drink. Take one hour before sleep or as needed.
