Melissa Officinalis
Melissa officinalis
A balm is a remedy or medicine, and the one Melissa delivers is that of bringing low spirits high. The cool, sweet, and uplifting aromatics of this mint family plant are not only good for shifting out of unpleasant moods but also helpful for fighting off viral infections, soothing irritating coughs, and relaxing the body when a fever is present. Lemon balm is supportive to the heart, thyroid, and brain cognition. It can be used in many different herbal preparations while fresh or dried.
