Herbalist Susun Weed has said working with Motherwort is like climbing into the warm lap of a mother, and I have to say in my experience, she's right. Motherwort has many superpowers- pain and heartache, PMS and menopause-related challenges; is a powerful heart tonic, relaxing the arterial muscles of the heart, thus also acting on anxiety and other tension issues (such as high blood pressure). I use her to support my cycle as I am aging, but she has given me so much more. Knowing that I can reach for her when I'm having a hormone freakout as well as when I'm dealing with anxiety through life's rollercoaster is a deeply powerful support.
