Lemon Balm

Oh, Lemon Balm! We cannot begin to exalt this fragrant, delicious herb enough. A member of the mint family, Lemon Balm lacks the bite of peppermint but carries with it the brightness of lemon and slightly floral notes. Once Lemon Balm establishes itself, it doesn’t stop. Its enthusiasm for LIVING and sharing its aroma with anyone lucky enough to brush against it mirrors its ability to bring the vibrance out in us while offering a sweet sort of calm.

Lemon Balm is one of the most accessible, delicious, and effective nerve nourishers we know. If it’s growing near you, make yourself a cup of Lemon Balm tea with the fresh leaves for a calming but uplifting pick-me-up. We make large amount of Lemon Balm tincture every year because it is supportive in so many ways and like to put it directly in hot water for an easy cup of tea.

Not only is it excellent for the nervous system, Lemon Balm has been widely used to settle nauseous and gassy bellies, ease digestion, and for immune support. When combined with Motherwort, it can be especially effective at calming an agitated heart. It also goes well with California Poppy and CBD for sleep support, and bitter herbs for easy digestion.

We sell Lemon Balm on its own and use it in our Mellow Mood Daily Calming Tonic, The Root of Wellness, Porch Time, and Seasonal Resilience tincture blends.
