Spring 2021. Just an herbal tea I really like. Cooling and soothing. Chamomile, chrysanthemum, mint, honey. Brew strong and only a small cup so I don't wake up needing to pee.
I got the lemon balm at the farmer's market. I dried it in the kitchen window. The previous fall, a cop that had walked around back of the house appeared suddenly in my periphery, which ruined my fried rice and my afternoon. I had so much anxiety afterward from being by that window alone, unless I was looking out of it. Hanging the lemon balm created a bit of a soothing ward.
Now whenever I have those same flashes in my peripheral vision, or feel alone or vulnerable at home, I brew up some of this tea to cool my vigilance.
