Scholastica's Storm Herbal Bath Tea

2.5 oz

$15.00

An evening bath infusion named for St. Scholastica—she wanted to linger a little longer, so she prayed down a storm. Chamomile releases muscle tension. Lemon balm quiets nervous energy. Skullcap stops the mental spiral. Valerian draws you into deep rest. The bathwater turns golden-green, smelling of sweet florals and apple-honey against a deep, earthy undertone—flowers heavy with rain. For the evenings you refuse to rush.

The sun was setting. Benedict rose to leave.

His twin sister did not rise with him.

"Please," Scholastica said. "Stay. Let us speak of heaven until morning."

He shook his head. The Rule did not permit him to spend the night outside his monastery. He had to return before dark.

She folded her hands on the table. Bowed her head.

Within moments, the sky went black. Thunder cracked. Rain fell in sheets so thick the doorway disappeared.

Benedict stared at her. "God forgive you, sister. What have you done?"

She lifted her head. "I asked you and you would not listen. So I asked my God, and He listened."

They spoke through the night—of the psalms, of the resurrection, of the city whose builder and maker is God.

Three days later, she died. From his cell at Monte Cassino, Benedict saw it: her soul ascending to heaven in the form of a dove.

This evening blend bears her name. For the evenings you refuse to rush.

Place 4-5 tablespoons of herbs in the muslin bag (included). Boil 2-3 cups of water and pour over the bag in a heat-safe bowl. Steep 10-15 minutes, breathing in the aromatic steam. Pour the infusion (with the bag) into your drawn bath. Soak for 15-20 minutes, gently squeezing the bag to release the herbs. Each jar makes 3-4 baths.
