Blue Lotus Whole Flower: Calm, Connection and Ritual

For millennia, the striking blue petals of Nymphaea capensis, also known as Blue Lotus, have held a revered place in traditional cultures across Egypt, India, and Southeast Asia. Once prized by pharaohs and depicted in ancient temple art, Blue Lotus was regarded as a symbol of rebirth, serenity, and spiritual elevation.

Today, these hand-harvested whole flowers continue to be valued for their deeply soothing aroma and their use in relaxation rituals, sensual teas, and mindful herbal blends. Our Blue Lotus Flowers are grown organically in South Africa.

Traditionally Used to Support:

• A calm and reflective mood.

• Relaxation after emotional or mental stress.

• Restful sleep and dream enhancement.

• Romantic and ceremonial experiences.

• General emotional wellbeing.

Aromatic, Soothing, and Versatile:

Blue Lotus Whole Flowers are perfect for those seeking a gentle, non-intoxicating botanical experience. Their sweet, slightly bitter floral profile makes them ideal for evening use - whether sipped as a tea, included in a smoking blend or steeped for bathing or aromatic rituals.

The flowers contain naturally occurring compounds such as Nuciferine and Aporphine, which are currently being studied for their potential to support relaxation and emotional balance.

• Steep 1 to 2 full flowers (approximately 1 - 1.5g) in hot water for 10 - 15 minutes.

Naturally Gentle, Rich in Tradition:
