The minute I heard my first love story, I started looking for you, not knowing how blind that was. Lovers don’t finally meet somewhere they’re in each other all along ~Rumi

Tulsi, also known as Holy Basil, tulsi assists in channeling prana down from the crown chakra and up from the soles of the feet, meeting at the heart. The result is an elevated state of focused awareness in the physical body. Tulsi is tonifying and balancing to the subtle bodies, and assists in tuning into the subtle life force radiating from all things. Tulsi essence promotes restful sleep and rejuvenation of depleted conditions, and assists with opening our hearts to the beauty in the world.

You can work with some of these herbs in tea ritual for…

• Rose – quiets an overactive mind and connects us to our ‘Essential Nature’, boosting feelings of self-worth.
• Lemon – encourages a child like sense of wonder and freedom in thoughts for new ideas
• Tulsi – Helping us to center at our heart and connect with our inner knowing.  Great for meditation as it clears out unwanted chatter as well as strengthening the immunity of our bodies.
• Blue cornflowers – It helps to develop feelings of wholeness, empathy, integration, cooperation, inner peace and connection with the earth.

Tea Blender: Fehreen Ali Ayurvedic rituals and plant medicine have been a part of my life since the beginning. Born and raised in Fiji, currently living in Brisbane, Fehreen was immersed in the world of Ayurveda through food, herbs, ancestral rituals and storytelling. She grew up in a tea-drinking culture where women would blend their own spices for masala chai and men would gather around a Tanoa (ceremonial wooden bowl) to drink Kava. Both Tea and Kava were the glue that bonded people and communities together. Her grandmother wasa huge influence and inspiration as – she was a very successful spice blender and her recipes and healing rituals have been passed down to me and woven into Tea Coup’s philosophy.
