Citrus Potpourri

1 c peppermint leaves

⅓ c lemon verbena leaves

⅓ c lemon balm

½ c rosemary

½ c juniper berries

4 c dried orange peels

1 c dried flower petals (rose petals, or any dried flowers you have collected)

1/3 c orris root

½ c salt

15 drops lemon oil and lime oil

In a large plastic bowl layer the flowers, herbs and berries. Top with the orris root and salt, then add the essential oils onto the salt. Mix together and cover the large bowl. Turn the ingredients daily for a month to ensure everything blends together. Store in plastic bags until ready for use. View more of our potpourri recipes on our blog.

Can be used in DIY soaps: when it’s dried, lemon balm loses some of its lemony scent, but it still works very well in soap. It is said to be antiviral and can help to kill germs when you wash with it. It provides a dark green colour and a bit rougher exfoliation than lavender or chamomile, while not abrading the skin.

Relaxed

I make tea with lemon balm. It's completely changed my life, I feel relaxed and calm. Yet I can still focus when I need to. It's really been a blessing, I would recommend it if you are looking for a natural healthy alternative to reducing anxiety.

Calming

Whenever I struggle with my mood, feeling super anxious, or having intrusive thoughts, I drink lemon balm tea and it literally makes it all go away. Makes me feel like I'm riding a rainbow 😁 It has a sedative effect on me though, so I take it when I'm not busy.

Calm and relaxed

Firstly, the taste is absolutely wonderful. After my first cup, I was relaxed and so calm. I suffer with hyperthyroidism and this tea helps me tremendously.
