postpartum herbal bath for perineal healing and ceremony

healing and soothing herbs for postpartum mamas. the herbs included in this blend help with perineal healing, soreness, and bleeding, as well as just nurturing and relaxing your body after birth. taking a daily herb bath while honoring your postpartum rest time is a wonderful way to reconnect to your body, soothe and heal your perineum, and just make space for self care during such a raw and sacred time.

this can also be used in a peri bottle to support healing and comfort while using the bathroom after birth.

st. john's wort infused oil is one of the most magical medicines to prepare. it has bright yellow flowers with sparkly starburst details. there are tiny pinpricks of ink inside the leaves which stain your fingers black as you harvest. and then the powerful medicine inside these brilliant yellow blossoms and inky dark leaves is deep blood red. it just FEELS alive. and it smells amazing. as the sunshine yellow flowers sit in the greenish gold oil they slowly transform the oil to crimson, an iridescent red that actually seems to glow. the plant blossoms and is traditionally harvested at the summer solstice, adding to its potency and power.

this herb has a strong affinity for nerves and traumatic injury to skin or muscle. it can be used on sore muscles or strains, or to treat minor burns. st. john’s wort oil is traditionally used for nerve and systemic pain - sciatica, shingles, or isolated nerve pain. it also has associations with mental wellness and brightness - as if the bright sunny yellow of the flowers brings that disposition into our spirits. it is a perfect oil for stimulating daily body massage to promote free flowing lymph nodes and circulation, especially in the dark winter months. it feels quite warm immediately upon rubbing into the skin and brings a sense of grounding and calm.

this is probably the most used oil in our home.

there are many variations of st. john’s wort out there, but ours truly captures an intensity of hypericum and deep red color i’ve never seen before.

the oil is a deep, opaque crimson and has a unique and enjoyable scent like fresh citrus and sunshine with a little evergreen tang.

for external use only.

tincture for afterbirth pains and bleeding time cramps

this tincture is made with medicinal herbs meant to ease and support the pain of cramps and uterine contraction in the immediate postpartum time.

immediately after birth, contractions begin again to facilitate the important process of the womb shrinking back to its normal size, healing the placental site, and regulating bleeding. this tincture includes crampbark, motherwort, yarrow, and red raspberry leaf to ease the pain of these contractions and support the uterus through this sacred process. these are all herbs with a special affinity for the female reproductive system.
hops are added to encourage relaxation, calm nerves, and support milk production.

take one dropperful under the tongue or in a small glass of water every few hours or as needed to reduce pain. for intense cramping after many births, 2-4 dropperfuls can be used.

this is also a wonderful remedy for cramps during your normal monthly moon cycle!

milky oats is such special medicine.

this tincture is difficult to make well requiring harvest of the fresh plant at just the right stage, usually lasting just a few days at peak potency. the plants cannot be shipped or stored, the medicine of milky oats must be captured from your own land and made at just the right moment of the season to store the milky green magic for the rest of the year.

this tincture is glowingly brilliant green as it is made, capturing the essence of early summer when it is at its peak. the medicine is rich with trace minerals and is known to deeply nourish the nervous system. it is soothing and gentle, comforting and feeding us in times of intense stress, exhaustion, overwhelm, or grief. it is said to be helpful with anxiety and sleeplessness, and particularly for times of burn out, intensity, or anger.

this is powerful medicine for our times.

it also has a special relationship with the endocrine system, and is sometimes used to support hormonal regulation, give rich, loving support to our libido, and is especially nourishing postpartum.

the milky sweetness of this medicine brings a tender mothering energy to all of us, through transition and overwhelm. it’s particularly beautiful medicine for the postpartum season.

this is by far our best selling tincture, with repeat customers coming back again and again for this potent offering.

delicious, nourishing hot chocolate mix with powerhouse ingredients for wellness and healing

this hot chocolate is SO GOOD.

it tastes rich, creamy, and delicious and it has so many healing benefits. it's a wonderful nourishing drink all winter long, and it's absolutely amazing for postpartum healing.
i crafted this drink mix in the last few weeks of my own pregnancy to be exactly what i would want to be nourished by in my postpartum weeks and it has since brought deep loving warmth to many a new mother in the days and weeks after birth. 

here's what's in this blend:

ashwaghanda root is a stress reducing, calming adaptogen that helps with restful sleep, increases nutrient absorption, reduces inflammation and swelling, and brings warming, iron rich nutrients. it also helps with hormone balancing.

marshmallow root soothes mucus membranes and has a special affinity for reproductive tissues, and supports a healthy milk supply. it helps with skin repair and smooths digestion, bringing moisture and balance. supports immune function. 

reishi also encourages stress reduction, supports healthy sleep, regulates anxiety and brings calm, reduces inflammation and boosts the immune system, helps regulate blood pressure and glucose and balances hormones.

lion's mane supports bone health and milk production, prevents depression and anxiety, improves brain function and clarity, and is rich in vitamin d and b vitamins and calcium. 

raw cacao is rich in oxytocin, can help boost milk production, elevate mood and is super rich in antioxidants and iron, magnesium and calcium - all of which are super important for replenishment in the postpartum weeks. 

collagen supports elasticity, sleep and hormone balance and encourages smooth digestion and healthy gut microbiome. it is a powerhouse after birth for repair and nourishment of healing tissues in the rapid physical changes occuring in the immediate postpartum. 

coconut sugar is added for a little touch of maply, warm sweetness. 

it's so easy to make - just heat up a mug of your favorite milk and add 1-2 tablespoons of herbal hot chocolate mix. whisk and enjoy! for an extra boost of nourishing postpartum fats, you can add a tablespoon of coconut oil or ghee and blend with a milk frother to combine.

the redwood trees of california are strikingly powerful, sacred, magic. this oil is made from fresh redwood leaves, lovingly gathered in accordance with the sacred harvest from the forests surrounding the bay area. the evergreens have a particular deep connection with ritual and ceremony, as well as traditional uses for protection, lung support, and antimicrobial care.

this is probably my personal favorite choice for daily use in herbal body oiling every morning.

this oil is a deep green with a lingering, subtly powerful scent of the redwood trees, sun soaked forest floor, fog drenched hills, and fresh spicy green leaves.

for external use only.

box set for deep nourishment and healing after birth

during the first few days and weeks postpartum it is essential to rest, to deeply care for our bodies, and to stay in bed skin to skin with our babies. the sacred postpartum rest time influences your body's healing from birth, your baby's immune system and life long gut health, your own pelvic floor health for the rest of your life, breastmilk supply, emotional and spiritual integration from birth, mental health and postpartum depression, and physiological bonding with your baby. while our culture is deeply broken around protecting and honoring this time for women immediately following birth, we can choose to prioritize this sacred time and set ourselves up for nourishment, love, support, and rest during those first days and weeks. this box includes my favorite plant medicine products for creating a healing, nurturing postpartum experience.
