"How good it is, when you have roast meat or suchlike foods before you, to impress on your mind that this is the dead body of a fish, this the dead body of a bird or pig."
Marcus Aurelius (via fallingawakeee)
Some favorite herbs made it into a tea blend I put together for Alex now that he’s living on the road; it’s a sweet medley to uplift and promote vitality. Hawthorn is renowned for it’s benefits to heart health; lemon balm calms but also relieves exhaustion & stress; licorice supports adrenal function & aids digestion; oats are great nerve and cardiac tonics & a rich source of magnesium; red clover is a blood builder & can improve skin; damiana lifts the spirit & inspires passion - it also promotes our ability to recall dreams; tulsi (AKA holy basil) helps us to resist stress & increases stamina and immune function. Divine.
