Sage isn't just good for flavouring our food. In Ancient Egypt & Mediterranean is was used as a fertility remedy and as an essential herb to aid digestion after heavy meals.

 

  • ​Greco-Roman Tradition: Derived from the Latin salvare ("to save/heal"), ancient Greeks and Romans valued sage for enhancing memory, sharpening mental focus, and treating liver ailments.

 

  • ​Indigenous North American Cultures: Tribes such as the Lakota Sioux and Chumash have used White Sage (Salvia apiana) for centuries in sacred smudging ceremonies to clear stagnant energy.

 

  • ​Medieval Europe: Planted in churchyards and gardens as a symbol of wisdom, longevity, and comfort for those in grief.

 

​Healing Properties are wide and various.


  • ​Antimicrobial & Air Purifying: Contains polyphenols and volatile oils that inhibit bacteria, viruses, and airborne pathogens when burned or prepared as an extract.


  • ​Cognitive & Memory Enhancement: Natural compounds slow the breakdown of acetylcholine, supporting focus, alertness, and memory retention.

 

  • ​Anti-Inflammatory & Pain Relief: Soothes sore throats (when used as a gargle), joint pain, and digestive distress like bloating and cramps.

 

  • ​Hormonal Balance: Helps reduce hot flushes, night sweats, and mood fluctuations during menopause.

 

​Spiritual Benefits

  • ​Space & Aura Cleansing (Smudging): The smoke binds to positive ions in stagnant spaces, clearing negative vibrations and restoring energetic balance.

 

  • ​Protection & Banishment: Creates a protective energetic barrier around individuals, homes, or spiritual tools against negativity.

 

  • ​Grounding & Intuition: Enhances meditative states, calms racing thoughts, and awakens inner wisdom and intuitive clarity.


Sage has a resilience that transferrs to us when we ingest this sacred herb. Cooling the hot flushes which can spring up from anywhere at anytime 🤷‍♀️ during the journey to crone or menopause which ever you prefer to call it, mostly it's like the beginning of internal spontaneous combustion 😁


We named this tea 'Sage for earthly connections' as it really does feel like a connection to earth when you drink this. It calms and you delivers a mood of serenity.


Brewing Advice

We recommend taking 5 minutes for the tea to brew and enjoy the earthly connections you feel




Much love MammaMoody
