These herbs work in concert to:
1. Open pores gently, promote a balanced sweat, releasing trapped heat
2. Soothe the nervous system, reduce restlessness and help sleep
3. Calm emotional and physical tension resulting in headaches, irritability, agitation
4. Support immune system
5. Rebalance heat and fluid movement, cooling without depleting, soothimg without sedating
