About the lotus and rose medicine

Lotus Flower Medicine:

The lotus flower is a highly treasured spiritual and physical remedy by countless ancient and modern cultures for its therapeutic benefits, nutritive alkaloids, antioxidants, flavonoids, triterpenes, vitamins, and minerals. These benefits include calming the mind, deepening meditation, enhancing creativity, regulating the nervous system, and more.

Rose Water:

Traditionally, rose has been used in Persian medicine for its healing properties, treating ailments ranging from digestive issues to skin conditions. Its deep, invigorating aroma, reminiscent of freshly bloomed roses, fills the senses with a mesmerizing and refreshing scent. Additionally, rose water is rich in vitamin F, composed of linoleic and alpha-linoleic acids, which contribute to its beneficial effects.
