Heart + Womb {creative energy centres} Electuary is honey based offering with Schisandra, Rose, Shatavari & Ginger powders. Helping to move stuck or stagnant energy held in our bodies, especially in the Heart or Womb space. Supporting Liver & TCM Kidney, potentially balancing hormones & connecting us to our Hearts, womb/lower energy centers, creative potential & inspiration. Vitality.
The taste is quite unique in that Schisandra, a Plant kin native to China, Eastern Russia & Korea, is sometimes known as the 5 flavour fruit. It contains all 5 flavours: salty, sweet, sour, pungent, and bitter. And really comes through in this honey, balanced with the sweetness of the honey itself. The Rose & Ginger also come through to bring balance.
Schisandra & Shatavari are both Adaptogenic plant kin, meaning, they may help to support our bodies during stress {ahem, life?}. Helping to balance cortisol & bring us back into harmony when indicated.
Schisandra help to nourish the Liver, Heart & Kidney in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Acting as a Qi tonic. Supporting overall vitality, and acting as an aphrodisiac. Aphrodisiacs can be worked with to help us *feel,* to enliven & awaken pleasure, our senses & creativity. Schisandra offers potent support to the entire nervous system.
Shatavari is an Adaptogen with a strong affinity for the female & male reproductive systems. There is research suggesting that Shatavari can enhance fertility, as well as increase one’s ability to handle stress. I think of their Medicine as not just enhancing physical fertility, but also our ability to Create. To heal our Sacral + Root energetic centres.
Rose is of course a quintessential Heart Medicine. Supporting us through grief, through keeping our Hearts open yet protected after loss, after difficult experiences, or anytime we feel ourselves hardening our Hearts. They are healing & supportive to our maternal lineages especially.
Ginger is added in a balanced amount to help support movement, circulation & bring warmth to the body. To the gut & womb.
