Restore & Revive — Liver Blood Tea
US$29.00

Dong Quai • Red Date • Goji Berry

A traditional whole-herb tea created to nourish Liver Blood, replenish Qi, and restore the body from within.

Unlike our tincture version of Restore & Revive, this pouch contains the whole herbs themselves, portioned into 5 individual packs for you to simmer slowly at home.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, Blood is more than something that circulates through the veins. Blood nourishes the muscles, skin, hair, eyes, menstrual cycle, reproductive system, and Shen (spirit). When Blood is abundant, the body feels nourished, grounded, warm, and resilient.

This simple combination of Dong Quai, Red Dates, and Goji Berries has been treasured for generations as a deeply nourishing tea—particularly during times when the body needs replenishment.

BENEFITS

Traditionally used to:

  • Nourish Liver Blood

  • Strengthen Qi and replenish the body

  • Support healthy circulation

  • Support menstrual and reproductive wellness

  • Replenish the body after menstruation

  • Support natural energy without caffeine

  • Nourish the skin, hair, and eyes

  • Support the Liver and Kidneys

  • Warm and nourish the body

  • Support healthy digestion

  • Calm and nourish the Shen

  • Provide antioxidant-rich plant compounds

THE HERBS

DONG QUAI — DANG GUI 当归

Often called the "female ginseng," Dong Quai is one of the most important Blood-nourishing herbs in Traditional Chinese Medicine.

It traditionally nourishes and invigorates Blood, while encouraging healthy circulation. It is especially associated with women's health and is commonly used when Blood nourishment is needed around the menstrual cycle.

RED DATES — DA ZAO 大枣

Sweet, grounding, and deeply nourishing, Red Dates have been used for centuries to strengthen Qi, nourish Blood, and support the Spleen and digestive system.

They bring a naturally gentle sweetness to the tea while helping replenish the body during periods of fatigue, stress, or depletion.

GOJI BERRIES — GOU QI ZI 枸杞子

Goji berries traditionally nourish Liver Blood and Kidney essence and are especially associated with the eyes, skin, healthy aging, and vitality.

Added toward the end of the simmering process, they give the finished tea a beautiful natural sweetness while completing this classic nourishing combination.

All About Dampness: A Traditional Chinese Medicine Guide to Feeling Lighter, Clearer & More Energized

Have you ever felt heavy, bloated, foggy, sluggish, puffy, or simply “stuck”, even when everything seems normal on paper?

Traditional Chinese Medicine has a name for this internal environment: dampness.

Dampness is one of the most common patterns I see in modern life, yet most people have never been taught what it is or how deeply it can influence digestion, energy, weight, skin, mental clarity, circulation, and overall vitality.

In this beautifully illustrated 75-page digital guide, I take you inside the Traditional Chinese Medicine understanding of Dampness: how it develops, how to recognize it, and most importantly, the everyday practices that can help you strengthen your digestion and prevent Dampness from accumulating.

INSIDE THE GUIDE

You'll learn about:

  • What Dampness actually is and the many ways it can show up in the body

  • The Spleen + Stomach system and why strong digestion is at the heart of preventing Dampness

  • The Five Element framework and the relationship between Dampness and the Earth element

  • The everyday foods, habits, emotions, and environmental factors that can contribute to Dampness

  • How to strengthen your Spleen and stoke your digestive fire

  • Why warmth, regular meals, movement, sleep, and even your emotional state matter

  • Traditional practices including moxibustion, acupressure, gua sha, and abdominal massage

  • The foods I rely on most—including congee, bone broth, ginger, Job's Tears, and simple warming meals

  • Herbal support traditionally used for Dampness

  • My 20 digestive tips for putting these principles into practice every day

This isn't another cleanse, diet, or wellness trend.

It's about understanding your internal environment.

When you understand why your body becomes sluggish, heavy, or stagnant, you can begin making simple choices that support it at the root.

My hope is that once you understand dampness, you'll begin to see your body differently— and you'll carry this knowledge with you for the rest of your life.

Black Sesame Seed Balls
US$35.00

We replenish our stock as soon as each fresh batch is ready. Join the waitlist to be the first to know when it’s back—you’ll get one!

九蒸九晒 (nine times steamed, nine times dried) comes from classical Chinese herbal preparation methods used to transform the nature of an herb or food so it becomes safer, more absorbable, more deeply tonifying and less harsh on digestion. Many of my herbs in my tinctures are prepared this way. 

1. The nine-cycle process unlocks the essence. By the ninth cycle, the sesame becomes warming, deeply tonifying, and gentle on digestion. Steaming and drying nine times isn’t just symbolic— it’s alchemical. Each cycle:
• Breaks down tough fibers and anti-nutrients
• Makes minerals, oils, and Jing-building compounds far more absorbable
• Concentrates the life force of the seed

2. Profound Kidney & Liver nourishment. The nine-cycle method allows it to tonify without clogging, which is crucial for long-term use. In Chinese medicine, black sesame enters the Kidney and Liver systems— the organs that govern:

• Aging & longevity
• Hair, teeth, bones, fertility
• Hormonal balance and willpower

3. Supports Blood, Yin, and Jing. This is why it’s traditionally used for graying hair, postpartum depletion, fatigue, and low vitality. This preparation is famous for:

• Nourishing Blood (dry skin, dizziness, brittle nails)
• Replenishing Yin (dryness, heat signs, night waking)
• Protecting Jing (burnout, overwork, premature aging)

4. Easier on the Spleen & digestion. Raw or improperly prepared sesame can be heavy. Nine-steamed sesame becomes silky, warming, and digestible, allowing nourishment to actually be assimilated.

5. The addition of black bean is key. Together, sesame + black bean form a classic longevity pairing. Black beans further:
• Strengthen Kidney Qi (aging, hair health, energy, fertility, hormones)
• Support adrenal energy
• Enhance detoxification and water metabolism

Shelf life: 6-7 months if stored in the fridge or somewhere cool

Each container contains about 22 balls
