$5.34 – $11.17Price range: $5.34 through $11.17
Description
Amber Powder (琥珀, Hu Po) is the finely ground form of fossilized tree resin, a mineral substance long honored in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) as Hǔ Pò (琥珀) and historically known as 虎魄 (Tiger's Soul). Prized for centuries as a spirit-calming, Shen-settling, and blood-quickening mineral, Hu Po has been used to ease restlessness, palpitations, and disturbed sleep, and to support smooth movement of blood and qi. Its nature is sweet and neutral, making it a gentle yet deeply grounding substance traditionally used to anchor the spirit and harmonize the Heart and Liver.

Quality & Sensory
Each batch is carefully ground to a fine, uniform powder that preserves amber's characteristic warm honey-gold to deep reddish-brown hue. The texture is smooth and free-flowing, with a faint resinous aroma reminiscent of ancient pine. When decocted or blended into formulas, it disperses evenly and contributes a mild, neutral taste that does not overpower companion herbs.

Traditional Uses

It has long been used in traditional sleep-support and palpitation formulas, and in blood-quickening blends for menstrual and post-trauma support. As a daily practice, it appears in small measured amounts within multi-herb decoctions rather than as a stand-alone tea.
