Understanding these phases and working with herbal allies can help create balance, ease discomfort, and optimize overall well-being.

In this post, we explore distinct herbs for each phase of the menstrual cycle. Read more to better understand each phase and to connect even more deeply with your natural feminine rhythms.

Women of the world who seek natural solutions for PMS and wish to embrace your bodies as beautiful!

Remember, you are not alone on this journey. Many women walk this path, seeking harmony and balance, and together, we can share knowledge, support, and strength. Celebrate your womanhood and all the nuances it brings. Your strength, resilience, and beauty shine through in every moment.

Trust in your body, listen to its signals, and treat yourself with the kindness and compassion you deserve. You are powerful, wise, and perfectly you.

And...

Having said that, let's face it. Women often experience a variety of complaints regarding their menstrual cycle. 

There are several factors that play into how long it takes for your body to return to it’s full fertile cycle; meaning that you ovulate, your uterine lining is prepared to nurture a fertilized egg, and you menstruate. Although it is unlikely that you would get pregnant if your period has not returned, it is still possible. So, be careful! If you would not welcome a new pregnancy, use birth control that will be compatible with breastfeeding.

Our Cycle Relief herbal tincture can provide relief from painful cramps and heavy bleeding during your period after giving birth.

What messages are in your menstrual cycles?  

Today, let's connect with our wombs and practice listening, observing, and learning from our bodies. There is so much information stored in our blood, breast, bones, and breath. It takes patience, curiosity, and compassion to be a good listener.

Often we feel vulnerable, and our periods are private personal experiences. I think we feel that way because our blood comes from deep inside us. It comes from the most amazingly creative and productive space in our bodies: that space that no one can feel but us. I mean, so many things come from there. From mucus to blood, clots, amniotic fluid, and babies to art, businesses, healing practices, to everything in between.
