Use Strategies
"Half of it is the awesome formulas...the other half is how you use them!"
This was a lovely blend and there is surprisingly so many herbs in this little container! Would love for it to come in something other than plastic but other than that it was great.
I enjoyed healing support and pain relief (minor tearing) in a strong bath, as well as a strong tea in a peri bottle. An experienced midwife recommended making "burritos" by wrapped the steeped herbs (tea reserved for bath) in cheese cloth. Store these in the freezer and let thaw a bit then add to underwear over a pad for wonderful pain relief and healing support.
Smells great! Lots of uses out of one container! Will be gifting this to my new mama friends!
