Spice it up with cardamom.

Also known as ShaRen in the Chinese herbal apothecary, cardamom enters the Spleen, Stomach & Kidney meridians. Yes, herbs and spices enter meridians. It is one of the considerations for practitioners when prescribing a formula for a patient. This seed is warm & pungent and functions to ‘wake’ the spleen, remove dampness, promote the circulation of qi and warm these organs.

💫 So…….sleepy spleens, imbalanced stomachs and cold kidneys: this spice is for you!

Cardamom is a stellar attraction in my chai tea, delightful brewed with coffee beans and lovely sprinkled on frothed nut milks. If you don’t have cardamom pods or powder in your spice rack, bring it in now – during the Earth season for seasonal wellness support. 🌍 If it is already in your spice rack – pound or sprinkle up your holy day creations. Your Spleen, Stomach and Kidney thank you!
