Stillwater Vata-Pitta Evening Tea
@Dianna Doblosky The strongest direction for Vata-Pitta with past trauma is not to “lift mood fast,” but “restore safety in the body.” That points toward gentle nervines, mineral support, moistening herbs, and only light adaptogens so we do not push an already alert system harder. The best herbal direction is warm enough to ground Vata, cool enough not to inflame Pitta, moistening enough to soften depletion, and gentle enough not to overstimulate trauma-sensitive wiring. Best support herbs are Oat Straw or Milky Oats, Lemon Balm, Chamomile, Rose petals or rosehips, Linden flower, Tulsi, small amount, Passionflower, mostly evening, Lavender, tiny amount.
