Folk Healer's Herbal Tea

The myth

All over Brazil, herbal tea is a home remedy passed from grandmother to granddaughter: boldo for the stomach, lemon balm and chamomile to calm, mint, lemongrass, guaco and many other plants. This knowledge joins Indigenous heritage, which has known native plants for thousands of years, with European and African traditions. Benzedeiras and root doctors often prescribe teas along with prayers, because for them body and spirit heal together. The card is inspired by this living tradition; remember, though, that many plants have strong effects and should be used with guidance.

Why it has this power

A common healing spell: it restores 800 breath points to its user. It is the region's simplest recovery effect, like a cup of tea after a hard day. It neither attacks nor defends, but it can buy one more turn for your story to go on. It pairs with the Rue-Branch Folk Healer.

Did you know

Guaco, a native plant used in homemade cough syrups, is also known in Brazil as snake herb.
