Kapha Tea ~ Motivate

Kapha is predominantly made up of the element of water (and earth) and a person with a kapha predominant constitution or imbalance has a tendency toward feeling cold, damp, lethargic and heavy. To counter that, Ayurveda uses warming, drying, lightening and stimulating foods and therapies.

Kapha Tea combines three varieties of Tulsi or Holy Basil (Krishna, Rama and Vana) a special herb known for its sattvic (mind harmonizing) qualities, and that clears cold and damp. Rooibos is rich in antioxidants that stop free radicals from damaging cells in the body; licorice is an effective expectorant, helping to liquefy mucus and facilitate its discharge from the body; ginger helps to alleviate indigestion and nausea, and cardamom a digestive stimulant that removes kapha from the stomach and the lungs.
