Michele's Tea- Fibromyalgia, Pain, and Energy

Michele contacted me in July, asking if I could make her a personalized tea to relieve the pain and fatigue associated with fibromyalgia.   Herbs sometimes take time to initiate a change in the body's systems. Consistency also helps. Michele noted, "Aspects of life that were once unbearable seem more manageable; movement is better too." Other symptoms, such as regular bending and stretching, improve when the body feels better.  

One resealable bag comprising 4.5 ounces will last roughly six weeks if consumed two cups daily.

Ingredients: Michele's tea comprises organic holy basil (Rama and Vana,) passionflower, ginger root, cinnamon bark powder, ground turmeric. and astragalus root.

Directions: Add two teaspoons of loose tea to four cups of boiling water; then, add a pinch of black pepper.  Steep for 20 minutes, stirring frequently. (If making a large batch, double the recipe, steeping for over 30 minutes.) Make enough to consume within three to four days. Refrigerate. If you like hot tea, simmer it until it suits your temperature.
