The Great Silencer
Indian Valerian (Tagara) • Valeriana wallichii • The Oil of Deep Grounding
Silence the Mind. Sink into the Earth. While common European Valerian is known for its pungent aroma, the mountains of Nepal offer a different treasure: Valeriana wallichii, known in Ayurveda as Tagara. This "Indian Valerian" is the sophisticated, elder sibling of the Valerian family. It retains the profoundly calming nature of its cousin but wraps it in a richer, muskier, and earthier aroma that grounds the spirit instantly.
In the Pranic Lifestyle, this oil is the ultimate "Tamastic" tool—energy that brings stillness, heaviness, and rest. It is the antidote to the "Rajasic" chaos of modern life. We offer a Vintage Distillation of this root oil. Like a fine wine, root oils improve with age; over time, the sharper top notes evaporate, leaving behind a thick, viscous nectar. This is not just an oil; it is a heavy, liquid blanket for the spirit.

Experience & Application
Indian Valerian is a heavy-duty tool for when "light" relaxation is not enough. It pulls energy down from the head and anchors it into the earth.
- Profoundly Restful Atmosphere: This oil is legendary for its use in creating a deeply tranquil environment. Its aroma doesn't just suggest relaxation; it creates a profound sense of stillness, making it the perfect aromatic centerpiece for a pre-sleep ritual.
- Soothes a Racing Mind: The rich, earthy scent is a powerful tool for soothing the spirit. It helps to quiet mental chatter and comfort feelings of being overwhelmed or anxious.
- Radical Grounding: For those who feel "floaty," dizzy, or disconnected from reality, the heavy, musky scent of Valerian provides an immediate energetic anchor, pulling your awareness back into the safety and stability of your physical body.
Sacred Rituals for Mastery
I. The "Hibernation" Foot Anointing
Because the aroma is potent, the best place for Valerian is the soles of the feet. Create this blend to prepare for a night of deep rest:
- 1 tsp Carrier Oil
- 2 drops Indian Valerian (The Anchor)
- 2 drops Lavender (The Soother)
- 1 drop Sweet Orange (To sweeten the scent)
Massage deeply into the soles of the feet 30 minutes before bed. Put on socks to protect sheets and contain the aroma. Sink into the mattress.
II. A Moment of Stillness
For acute moments of feeling overwhelmed or ungrounded, simply uncap the bottle and take one deep, slow inhalation from a safe distance. The heavy, musky scent acts as a "pattern interrupt," encouraging a pause and slowing down racing thoughts.
The Safety Vault: A Guide to Respectful Use
This is a "Vintage" root oil with specific handling requirements due to its thickness and potency.
- VISCOSITY WARNING: As an aged root oil, this product is naturally thick and syrupy. The dropper may be slow. Warm the bottle in your hands or a cup of warm water for a few minutes before use to encourage flow.
- PROFOUNDLY CALMING EFFECTS: This oil creates a deep sense of tranquility. Do not drive or operate heavy machinery after using therapeutic doses.
- AROMA INTENSITY: The aroma is potent and long-lasting. Use sparingly. A little goes a very long way.
- FELINE ATTRACTION: Cats are often strongly attracted to the scent of Valerian. While not considered toxic in the same way as other oils, it may overstimulate them. Store securely away from pets.
