Herbs and spices to help you on your healing journey in alignment with self.

7th Chakra - Crown

Lavender
Tulsi (Holy Basil)
Valerian Root
Sage

A couple of great teas by Traditional Medicinals that I like for the Crown Chakra.

Sleepy & Relaxing

For your relaxing options, I have Chamomile Lavender or Nighty Night (which is their Valerian Root tea). You can also find other brands that carry these, I personally stick to what I know. Traditional Medicinals is all organic and the herbs truly feel in alignment with my body.

Energetic & Vibrant

Tulsi Ginger by Traditional Medicinals - this one is GREAT in the mornings!

Alternatives to Tea

You can make a Lavender Oil for popcorn, add lavender into a dessert, latte or morning oats or quinoa. How about some lavender lemonade?

Personally…I love a good Lavender Coconut Drizzle for my pancakes, mmmmm!

This is where you get creative!

6th Chakra - THIRD-EYE

Mint (my personal favourite)
Mugwort
Rosemary
Lavender

5th Chakra - THroat

Eucalyptus
Peppermint
Lemongrass
Sage
Chamomile

My personal favourite

Throat Coat by Traditional Medicinals.
Peppermint is also a great option.

Pro Tip

If you’ve got allergies or a scratchy throat, you may want to consider swapping out Chamomile for something that suits your body.

I’ve got seasonal allergies and find that sometimes Chamomile tends to leave my throat a little scratchy - especially in the Summer time.

4th Chakra - Heart

Hawthorne Berry (great for a broken heart)
Jasmine (peaceful and calming)
Rose (self love, love and being open to love)
Basil
Chamomile
Marjoram
Peppermint, Spearmint or Mint
Parsley
Cilantro (Coriander)
Cayanne
Chili Powder

The heart chakra is associated with two colours

Pink and Green! I have included Chili Powder in here as I find it very heart opening due to the heat. I love Simply Organic’s Chili Powder mix, it’s amazing!

You’ll find a lot of these support multiple Chakras - Chili Powder being one of them! It’s a great one for the Root Chakra, which we will get to in a minute, I promise!

Herbal Tea Tip

You’ll find a great Hawthorne Berry Hibiscus tea by Traditional Medicinals ;)
I swear I am not sponsored by them… but maybe I should be.

3rd Chakra - Solar plexus

Turmeric

Saffron
Cinnamon
Ginger
Cumin
Yellow Curry Powder
Mustard Seed
Anise
Fennel

2nd Chakra - sacral

Calendula
Raspberry Leaf
Cinnamon
Vanilla
Sweet Paprika
Turmeric
Coriander
Fennel
Sesame

Menstrual Cycle TipS

Raspberry Leaf is great for relieving cramps and any stress your system is experiencing. Turmeric is great to induce your period - this isn’t proven, however, some say it works.

1st Chakra - Root

Cayenne
Black Pepper (any pepper really)
Chili Poweder
Smoked Paprika
Chives
Onion
Garlic
Horseradish

Hope this was helpful for ya’ll!

Even if you aren’t spiritual and don’t believe in this “stuff”, I guarantee you, you will feel so much more aligned, at peace and generally more “clear” if you explore some of these options. If you’d like a more logical perspective: Herbs and spices have been used for centuries and there’s a reason for that - herbal/plant medicine really works!

Welp, that’s my two cents.
