In April, we’ll be connecting with the enchanting Meadowsweet — a plant with a name rooted in tradition, once used to sweeten mead. Have you ever caught its scent? Meadowsweet releases a distinctive sweet aroma of vanilla and almond that can be noticed from afar.
Thriving in cold, damp soils, Meadowsweet is especially beneficial for imbalances caused by cold and dampness — think fevers, colds, and rheumatic pains.
It soothes the gut, reduces acidity, and protects the mucous membranes of the GI tract. Ideal for gastritis, peptic ulcers, and nausea. With anti-inflammatory, antacid, carminative, and antirheumatic properties, it’s also a wonderful ally for joint and muscle pain.
Its Gaelic name, Cneas Chu Chullain — the belt of Cú Chulainn — hints at a deeper, mythical connection. Would you like to know how this legendary Irish hero is tied to such a delicate yet powerful plant?
Join us for our April tea ceremony and soundbath to experience Meadowsweet with all your senses — and uncover her story.
