Motherwort Extract

This is one of my top 5 herbs, I wild craft and tincture her every spring from my property and I am delighted to share my extra with you. It is only available until my stash is gone as I only like to make her fresh in early spring, this gives her some extra earthy/ grassy flavors. It is an extremely bitter plant and doesn’t taste good, but she makes the best medicine. 

Motherwort has been used for years as an effective tonic for menstrual and perimenopausal symptoms due to its anti-spasmodic actions that reduce cramping and pain. It is a plant that ‘mothers the mother’ and is often recommended for people postpartum, helping with exhaustion and irritability and for PMS and perimenopause.

The Latin name for this plant, ‘Leonurus cardiaca,’ means ‘lion hearted’, indicating its support for the heart. Motherwort was traditionally used to support the heart, bothphysically (as it can help with new blood vessel growth and strengthen electrical activity) as well as metaphorically (it can help with things like grief and sadness).
