Resin is a beautiful experience. I found the effect a bit long to come but I slept very well and had a deep and restful sleep. It was nice and sweet. Thank you for discovering this new treasure.

We answer.
What is white lotus (Nymphaea lotus)?
White lotus is a sacred flower of ancient Egypt, botanically a water lily named Nymphaea lotus (Nymphaeaceae family), the nocturnal sister of the blue lotus. Her particularity is rare — she opens at night and closes in the morning, exactly the inverse of the blue lotus. The Egyptians made her the flower of Isis, of passages and dreams. INFUSE offers her whole flowers and a paste extract.
What are the felt effects of white lotus?
Traditional uses describe white lotus as both calming and subtly euphoric — a relaxation of the body, a refined presence, a softness that inclines toward inner silence. She is situated in the evening, for meditation, ritual bath or entry into sleep. She is not a health product; she is a flower of slow moments.
What is the difference between white lotus and blue lotus?
These are two close water lilies, Nymphaea lotus (white) and Nymphaea caerulea (blue), of the same Nymphaeaceae family. Their cycles oppose — the blue opens in daytime, the white opens at night. Coherent use reports over decades describe the white as more sedative and oriented toward sleep and dream, the blue as more euphoric and social. This is exactly the ritual distribution of ancient Egypt.
Is white lotus a true lotus?
Botanically no — she is a water lily, Nymphaea lotus (Nymphaeaceae family), not a true lotus like the Asian Nelumbo nucifera (Nelumbonaceae family). But in ritual use, from Egypt to Sri Lanka, she has been called "white lotus" for millennia, and she bears this name with dignity. Her modern commercial name in aquatic gardening is tiger lotus.
How do I prepare a white lotus infusion?
Place a whole flower in a large cup, pour simmering but never boiling water, and let infuse 7 to 10 minutes. The same flower reinfuses two to three times. At one moment she stops floating, sinks to the bottom and reopens, submerged — a spectacle. In the evening, in silence. A little honey or lemon enhances.
Does white lotus help to sleep and dream?
Traditional use situates her in the evening, as companion of relaxation and the sleep threshold, and several traditions place her near the bed for dream quality. INFUSE formulates no medical promise — the flower accompanies an evening ritual and heals nothing. Many take her during life passages: grief, age change, crossing.
What precautions with white lotus?
Start with a small quantity to observe your body's reaction. To avoid in case of pregnancy or breastfeeding without professional advice. Caution with sedative or antidepressant (SSRI) medications, or those acting on dopamine. Do not drive after a full dose. Vaping and hyper-concentrated extracts are not the traditional way — INFUSE works with the whole flower. DYOR, as always.
Where do INFUSE's white lotus flowers come from?
Our white lotus flowers are wild-harvested in the lakes of Sri Lanka, in collaboration with a small family business. Quality control is carried out in France. The supply details (harvester, lot) are in process of confirmation.
