Introduction: If women are in a state of depression for a long time, it can lead to various illnesses. In fact, brewing a cup of rosehip tea can help to soothe the liver and regulate qi.
The ancients said that life is unsatisfactory eight or nine times out of ten. When encountering不顺心 (unfavorable) matters in daily life, one cannot vent them at will, and they are bound to accumulate in the heart. This is especially true for women; if they remain depressed for a long time, it can lead to various illnesses. In fact, brewing a cup of rosehip tea can play a role in soothing the liver and regulating qi. Women might consider it as a wellness companion to nurture their body and mind.
Rosehip and Osmanthus Tea
According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, rosehip is sweet and slightly bitter in taste, warm in nature, and non-toxic. It enters the liver and spleen meridians, and has the effects of regulating qi to relieve depression, soothing the liver to awaken the spleen, invigorating blood to dissipate stasis, and regulating menstrination to relieve pain. It can treat conditions such as liver and stomach qi stagnation pain, chest and hypochondriac distension and fullness, breast tenderness, and irregular menstruation.
The medicinal nature of rosehip is mild. On one hand, it can harmonize qi and blood, and soothe the stagnant qi in the body. On the other hand, the unique appearance and fragrance of rosehip can uplift the body and mind, making one feel refreshed and in a good mood. It has a dual effect of medicinal conditioning and mental therapy, making it particularly suitable for women with a fast-paced life and high work pressure. It also has a certain therapeutic effect for patients with postpartum depression.

For brewing rosehip in water, dried rosehip buds should be used, with 6-10 buds being appropriate each time. Brew with boiling water as a tea substitute. A small amount of rock sugar or honey can be added according to personal preference for a better taste. It is worth noting that rosehip is a common qi-regulating medicine. People with insufficient qi and yin, or with yin deficiency and fire hyperactivity, should use it with caution. Additionally, because rosehip is warm in nature, it is not advisable to drink it for long periods during the summer.
