Lighten + Breathe
 
Elderflower (Sambucus nigra) has been cherished in European herbal traditions for centuries as a gentle yet powerful support for the immune and respiratory systems. Harvested from the flowering tops of the elder tree in early summer, this fragrant blossom is traditionally used to open the pores, clear heat, and promote healthy sweating supporting the body’s natural detoxification process during seasonal changes.
 
Known for its cooling, relaxing properties, Elderflower is often turned to at the first sign of imbalance, especially when the body is in need of gentle immune support or relief from occasional congestion. Its light, floral nature also makes it a soothing ally for the skin, digestion, and the nervous system.
 
Often brewed into teas or syrups, Elderflower helps the body release what no longer serves, bringing clarity, ease, and a sense of renewed vitality both physically and energetically. Elderflower dried herb.
