Organic Catnip (Nepeta Cataria)
Traditional Uses Catnip tea is most commonly used to aid nervousness and anxiety, along with other symptoms these conditions can cause, such as indigestion and insomnia. It may be used to address conditions or symptoms related to gastrointestinal upset, including indigestion, cramping, and gas. It may act as a diuretic, increasing urination and thus decreasing water retention. This could help a number of different conditions. Catnip tea has historically been used to address arthritis coughs, hives, fevers, and viruses. Cautions + Considerations A common side effect of catnip tea is drowsiness, which is often mild. While this is a plus if you’re trying to relax it's not ideal at the beginning of a workday. Drink catnip tea at night so you can learn how it affects you. Metaphysical + Spiritual Uses Sacred to Bast; should be used in any ritual involving cats or cat deities. Used in love workings and to enhance beauty or happiness.
