Rose Water is an exceptionally unique and spiritually significant hydrosol. It is meticulously prepared by distilling the petals of wild-grown roses (Rosa damascena or Rosa centifolia) hand-picked from the pristine, high-altitude regions around Badrinath in the Himalayas. Crucially, this process incorporates Ganga Jal (holy water from the Ganges River), adding a sacred dimension to its purity. This combination of untouched mountain roses and revered Ganga water yields an elixir of unparalleled purity, a delicate yet profound floral aroma, and a profound sense of spiritual well-being, revered for its cosmetic, therapeutic, and spiritual applications.
Health Benefits: This unique rose water, particularly due to its pure source and spiritual infusion, offers several benefits. It acts as a powerful antioxidant, protecting cells from damage and reducing oxidative stress. Its natural anti-inflammatory properties soothe skin irritations and reduce redness. It is a mild antiseptic and astringent. The combined aroma of the roses and the spiritual essence of Ganga water is known for its profound calming and mood-enhancing effects, reducing anxiety, promoting deep relaxation, and fostering a sense of inner peace. When consumed, it can aid in digestion and offer mild detoxification.
