Product Details
“Lavender tea was drunk by Queen Elizabeth I for migraine. Tea is believed to have special use in treating all grieves and pain of head and brain.”
The relaxing, sweet floral scent is what makes Lavender extremely popular around the world. The name Lavender comes from the Romans. The Latin word Lavere means “to wash.” Lavender may have earned this name because it was frequently used in baths by Romans and Greek to help to purify the body and spirit and has a calming effect on the skin and mind and sets the mood.
Linen bags containing lavender flowers were commonly placed under pillows for their alleged soporific properties. Used as an ingredient in cooking, perfume, healing wounds and insect repellent.
