BLUE LOTUS
Participants will be offered Blue Lotus tea, an ancestral plant revered by the ancient Egyptians for its ability to activate the third eye and induce lucid dreaming. Blue Lotus is also a nervine (a nervous system relaxant) and known as the "Gateway to the Divine" because of its ethereal effects, from euphoric tranquility to heightened awareness. Blue Lotus flower is also said to enhance the way we experience sound; this, along with its relaxing properties, makes this plant ally the perfect sound bath companion.
