Mentha aquatic. Manipulative.

This water-loving mint grows on wet marshes, fend and woodlands. The peppermint-scented plant bears tiny purplish-blue flowers, crowded into whorled spherical heads. The water mint may be used in herb medicine in the preparation of peppermint tea and used to alleviate coughs, colds and flu.

Wolves in sheep's clothing, or manipulators, turn your words against you. If you say, "I'm really annoyed that you forgot to repay that debt," they will say, "Fancy thinking I'd forget. I should have told you about the worries I have at the moment. I didn't want to trouble you." You know they're really not sorry at all, but trying to gain your sympathy. Trust the little voice inside that tells you they're being manipulative. If you give in, they'll continue. Instead, drink Mentha peppermint tea to alleviate the symptoms, and retain your positive outlook.
