Aparajita or Clitoria ternatea, this striking blue-purple flower is not just beautiful—it’s a powerhouse of medicinal benefits, boosting memory and reducing stress.
A paste of Aparajita flowers with water or milk applied around the eyes soothes irritation and headaches. Traditionally, it’s used to calm mental stress and migraines.
Infusing 6–7 flowers with a small cardamom in 1 liter of water and sipping slowly throughout the day can help relax the body and reduce high blood pressure naturally.
A calming tea made with Aparajita flowers, rose petals, and cardamom relieves mental fatigue and aids light insomnia, perfect for today’s busy lifestyle.
Mixing fresh Aparajita flower paste with a little ghee and taking it on an empty stomach in the morning may enhance memory, focus, and cognitive function—beneficial for students and mental workers.
Soaking 6–7 flowers in 500 ml water overnight and sipping slowly in the morning may ease hormonal imbalances, supporting menstrual and menopausal wellness.
While Aparajita offers many benefits, pregnant or breastfeeding women and patients with high blood pressure should consult a doctor. It can interact with medications, so expert guidance is essential.
