  • Lavender Silk Eye Pillow, $24.50
    • Ingredients: flaxseed & lavender bud in a unbleached cotton muslin satchel (approx 5" x 9") covered in a silk removable cover. Available in teal, plum or deep rose silk.
    • Good for covering eyes and helping to sink down deep into your pillow. The lavender helps you to relax and the weight of the flaxseed makes the pillow contour to your face. Can be used at room temperature, stored in the freezer (in a ziplock bag) and used for headache relief or to calm puffy eyes, OR can be popped in the microwave for 30 second and used as a hot magic bag on strained muscles.
  • Herbal Sitz Bath (perineal wash tea), 240ml $14.50
    • Ingredients: Plantain leaf, Calendula flower, Yarrow leaf, Lavender bud
    • This is such a practical and thoughtful gift for a postpartum mom. Use this herbal blend to brew "tea" for perineal care. Can be used in a peri bottle for first days after birth or in a Sitz Bath for daily soaks. I recommend to soak a couple maxi pads with this tea and freeze for use in the first 24-48 hours postpartum. This helps with the pain and to bring down the swelling. It can also be used in the bathtub (for this I recommend using a cotton muslin bag to contain the herbs).

Herbal Teas

  • Ripe 'N Ready Tea (Third Trimester partus preperator), 120ml $12
    • Ingredients: Partridgeberry, Red Raspberry leaf, Alfalfa, Lemon Balm, Nettle leaf.

  • Mama You Rock! Tea, 120ml $12
    • Ingredients: Lemon Balm, Chamomile flower, Hibiscus flower, Rose petal, Lavender bud, Rose hips
    • This tea is an herbal blend to help relax and sooth the mother and the entire family. While it is best to drink this tea hot, it is also delicious cold. Place 1-2 teaspoons of loose tea leaves per cup of almost boiling water. Allow the tea and water to steep for at least 20 minutes.
  • Mama's Pick Me Up Tea, 120ml $12
    • Ingredients: Motherwort, Passionflower, Lemon Balm, Dandelion Root, Nettle leaf, Red Raspberry leaf.
    • This blend supports both the physical and emotional aspects of a mother who has the baby blues or postpartum depression. Motherwort is an herb that helps “mother the mother” and can aid in quieting an anxious mind and heart as well easing hormone shifts, and provide non-drowsy relief from tension. Passionflower is a calming herb that soothes the nerves and assists with calming an anxious mind, especially when struggling with insomnia. Lemon Balm is an herb that eases transitions by calming and soothing the anxious mind. In addition, it is known to ease cramps and aid in digestion.  Dandelion Root is high in minerals including iron, and nourishes and balances the body.  Nettle leaf is a nutritive tonic; a blood builder due to it's high mineral content. Red Raspberry leaf is a uterine tonic, and is high in calcium.

    • This blend supports both the physical and emotional aspects of a mother who is exhausted and recovering from birth while adjusting to her new life with baby.

Herbal Tinctures

A tincture is a liquid preparation that uses alcohol and water to extract the constituents of herbs. Put a small amount (approx. ¼ cup) boiled water into a cup. Add ½ tsp of tincture. Allow preparation to sit 15 minutes (this allows the majority of the alcohol in the tincture to evaporate via the steam). Take the blend of tincture/water with meals (i.e. ½ tsp. tincture in water three times daily). Follow with a dried apricot chaser if you dislike the taste.

    • This tincture is inspired by the Eclectic physicians (medical herbalists of the 1900s) which contains herbs that may be considered unpleasant to drink in tea form, but have valuable properties that aid in preparing the uterus for labour and birth and in tincture form can be taken in smaller quantity.
