We alight with Sun. A personal Spring, movement returning to the world and a fire lit for the turning of the day. Dawn by LMNL is your energising spark, lighting up the circulatory and central nervous systems with supportive, stamina enhancing and stimulating botanicals. Spiced & citral, caffeinated yet balanced; a perfect accompaniment to any strong movement practice, martial art or sacred combat.

Pair with The Hunter | Temple Tonic for an amplified experience.

Dawn, a gradual lightening of the darkness
Shifting in colour and hue
From deepest almost-black through navy and into shades
Of purple and pink,
A prelude to this most (w)holy of events,
This turning of the world
This Sunrise

_

Piercing the veil of night, javelins of light
Strike cloud and sky
Through the half-grey of morn
Rays refracted, reflect unrelenting emergence
This sphere, this centre of faith and belief
This Sun rising.

CAUTION

Some plants have strong effects, and some more subtle. We share botanicals (extracts and straight) that have storied history from all around the world, in some cases for millennia.

We believe in personal empowerment and self-sovereignty. Common caution applies for anyone that has life conditions that warrant it.
