New Moon Tea ~ Menstrual Phase
Couldn't load pickup availability
Our loose-leaf New Moon Tea aims for pain relief with soothing & cramp reducing herbs, all while providing hormonal balance during week 1 of your cycle-the menstrual phase; your "inner winter"!
Your 28 day menstrual cycle starts on day 1 of the menstrual phase, which typically lasts around 3-7 days. Your BBT drops to its lowest, along with your energy, libido, & mood. The hormones estrogen, serotonin, and testosterone continue declining as progesterone plunges, signaling to your body there is no pregnancy. Your uterine lining (endometrium) sheds as your bleed arrives.
While pain during this time is common, it is NOT normal, and can often times signal hormonal imbalance. You can manage this by syncing up the herbs you use, foods you eat, ways you move your body, & the activities you engage in! Follow @thecyclicalherbalist for more info on cycle-syncing.

Directions: Steep 1 Tbsp of tea blend in 1 cup of boiling water; add honey or blackstrap molasses to sweeten. Make 2-3x/day for best results**
Blackstrap molasses contains minerals that are lost while bleeding (zinc, iron, magnesium..), so adding it in can help to replenish these while being a natural sweetener*
