Valerian is a flowering perennial plant native to Europe and Asia with sweetly-scented pink or white flowers. The pungent root is well-known for its sedative effect, so it is a great addition to spells for relaxation or sleep. When worn in a sachet, it attracts both love and healing. It is also powerfully protective against negative forces when kept in the home. Valerian can be used in teas or baths, but its strong scent and flavor may need to be balanced with other herbs.
