“My body needs it—the hot baths, the care, the soft water, the perfume, the warmth. I take on the colors of the flowers, the bloom, the delicacy. It becomes me.”
― Anaïs Nin
Tahini Milk
Tahini makes for a satisfying drink when you need grounding. It is ideal for balancing vata dosha, or for grounding and nourishment, especially in the the fall and winter.
Tahini is generally easy to digest, unless you have a slow metabolism. It has a high protein content by weight and can be great for nourishing the brain and reproductive organs, as well as for treating anemia.
Here's the recipe:
1 cup milk of your choice
1 tbsp tahini
1 tsp raw organic honey, maple syrup or stevia (do not heat honey)
1/2 tsp ashwaghanda powder (optional)
Warm milk on the stove. Lower heat and add tahini and stir. Once removed from heat, add sweetener of your choice.
