Introducing Red Raspberry Leaf and St Johns Bush!
Our world has evolved into something that is extremely fast paced, intense, and demanding. This only makes maintaining your physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health and wellness that much more important but also that much more difficult. As women, we especially face a myriad of health challenges, particularly related to our womb and our hormones. We have some of the highest rates of PMS, endometriosis, fibroids, and PCOS in history.
It's crucial in order for us to help and heal ourselves that we find natural and effective solutions to our issues! In this article, we'll delve deep into the incredible healing properties of Red Raspberry and St. John's Bush, two potent herbs that can restore hormonal balance, nourish the womb, and promote overall women’s reproductive health and vitality.
While both herbs can have many positive benefits when used on their own, they are even more powerful when combined together. St Johns Bush is a potent womb cleanser and Red Raspberry Leaf is a womb replenisher and strengthener. So, when used together they FIRST reset your body by clearing out anything that is not supposed to be there, then SECONDLY boost and heal by adding potent vitamins and minerals. Both herbs will also work together to balance hormones and regulate cycle length.

The menstrual cycle is the 5th vital sign, and so ultimately womb health is crucial for women's overall well-being. Like we've touched on throughout this article, womb wellness plays a significant role in reproductive health, hormonal balance, and even emotional stability.
On the spiritual side of things, the womb is the center of not only our bodies but our universe. She observes, records, collects, keeps, and reflects on all our entire lives. It’s our creative and power source. When we heal our wombs we are healing ourselves as a whole because they are linked. Not only that, but we are healing our pasts and all the women who came before us as well as our future generations.
When we are imbalanced with our menstrual cycle, we have a severely decreased quality of life. Issues like fibroids and endometriosis can lead to chronic pain and make it very difficult to complete daily activities like exercising, cleaning, having sex, completing work, cooking to name a few. Severe PMS (and PMDD) is linked to higher suicide rates due to the severe anxiety, depression, and mental disease women experience. fertility challenges, and a decreased quality of life.
