Breathe Deep

A blast of cold winter air is a chilly reminder that the harshness of winter has arrived and this dry air outdoors and even in our home  is hard on our respiratory system. this cold winter air increases your chances of catching a respiratory illness, by disrupting the moisture layers and can irritate the airways and lungs, and suppressing our immune system. 

Did you know that White Pine needles have 4 times as much vitamin C as orange juice.  White pine can be an effective medicinal plant to help support respiratory health to calm a cough and soothe a sore throat. 

So we took to our Soma tea lab to blend all organic rare botanical roots and herbs for this special naturally caffeine free wellness tisane.

We combined all organic:   healing white pine needles, green rooibos, ginger, turmeric, wild cherry bark, slippery elm, eucalyptus, nettle, licorice root, mullein leaf & flower, gingko biloba burdock root, lemongrass and marshmallow leaf, then balance out the flavor profile with orange peel, cinnamon, fennel, cardamom and anise.

Ginger root can also be effective in relieving congestion and as we know it helps to  reduce inflammation.  

Licorice root is also used to help soothe the respiratory system, relieve irritation, and expel that sticky mucus.

Ginkgo biloba may help to reduce inflammation which can make breathing easier.

Slippery elm is well known for its ability to coat the throat providing relief from sore throats and coughing,

Mullein for its antiviral and antibacterial properties.

Burdock Root Its packed full of antioxidants, removes toxins and promotes increased circulation.

Citrus peel are full of  immune boosting vitamin C, and anti-oxidant & anti-inflammatory bioflavonoids.

Lemongrass may help with coughs and colds. It strengthens the immune system and has a calming effect on the body.
