Whether at work or in daily life, drinking tea for health has become a habit for many people. For example, drinking flower tea in spring and black tea in summer. But do you know what kind of tea to drink when you're feeling depressed or having trouble sleeping? If you don't know, let's take a look together with me.
【What tea to drink for relieving liver qi stagnation and depression?】
【Rose and Longan Tea for liver health】
According to the "Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon", the liver is the general of the body, responsible for planning and strategy. Whether our intelligence and wisdom can be fully utilized depends on the abundance of our liver qi. If the liver qi is abundant, people will be steadfast and stable; if the liver blood and liver qi are deficient, people will be easily irritable and prone to anger.
I recommend a liver-nourishing tea - Rose and Longan Tea. The rose is known as the "Queen of Flowers". It has a sweet taste and a warm nature. It enters the liver meridian and has the effects of promoting blood circulation, regulating qi, reducing swelling, and detoxification. Longan has a sweet taste and a warm and balanced nature. It is rich in glucose, sucrose, protein, various vitamins, and minerals. Its high content of niacin and vitamin K is rare among other fruits. Longan can nourish qi and blood, tonify the liver and spleen, nourish the muscles, and treat symptoms such as spleen damage due to overthinking, dizziness, insomnia, and palpitations. The combination of the two has the effect of tonifying the liver and nourishing qi, making it very suitable for liver health.
Recipe for Rose and Longan Tea: Take 5 roses and 50g of longan flesh, and add some honey to taste. Cut the longan flesh into small pieces. Rinse the roses and cut them into shreds. Boil water and add the longan flesh. After 3 minutes, add the roses and mix well. Let it simmer for a moment. When drinking, you can add honey for flavor.
