Motherwort (Leonurus cardiaca)

Motherwort is a traditional European and Asian herb with a long history of use in Western herbalism. Its name reflects its longstanding association with women’s herbal traditions, although its uses extend beyond reproductive support.

Traditional Uses: Motherwort has traditionally been used to ease occasional nervous tension and promote a sense of calm, support menstrual comfort and normal menstrual cycles, and support normal cardiovascular function during periods of stress or tension. Its bitter qualities have also led to its use as a traditional digestive herb.

How to Use: Motherwort can be prepared as an herbal tea or infusion, although its strongly bitter flavor makes tincture preparations particularly common. It is frequently combined with other herbs in calming, menstrual, and traditional heart-support blends.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from heat, moisture, and direct sunlight. Keep sealed to preserve freshness and potency.
