Your organs seem to fall back into place with every step, every inch of your bottom aches, and you feel bruised, swollen, heavy, and in shock.

From a sitz bath to a soak in the tub, herb baths are a great way for anyone to experience the restorative benefits of herbs.

A fascinating and, sometimes, bewildering example of this is the relationship between menstruation and breastfeeding.
