Melissa, also known as “balm of the heart,” is one of the most cherished herbs of the Greek countryside. With its gentle lemony aroma and soft, sweet flavor, it offers a sense of calm and well-being that soothes the mind and refreshes the body. Since ancient times, it has been used as a relaxing and uplifting herb, and it continues to be a trusted companion in moments of daily stress.
Traditionally, lemon balm is used:
• to reduce stress and ease tension,
• to support restful and restorative sleep,
• to relieve mild digestive discomfort,
• to enhance mood and promote emotional balance.
As an infusion, it is wonderfully aromatic and enjoyable, making it ideal for evening relaxation or any moment when body and mind seek tranquility. Its fresh, delicate character evokes the feeling of open air and sunlit garden paths.
