Motherwort herb, c/s, wild crafted

Motherwort, scientifically known as Leonurus cardiaca, is an herbaceous plant that has been used for centuries in traditional medicine. The herb is native to Europe and Asia but has since been naturalized in North America and other regions. Motherwort herb is often harvested in the wild, a practice known as wild crafting, which involves gathering plants from their natural habitat. The leaves and flowers of the motherwort plant are typically dried and then cut and sifted (c/s) to create a convenient form for use in teas, tinctures, and herbal preparations.

In traditional herbal medicine, motherwort is valued for its calming and relaxing properties. It is often used to help ease nervous tension, anxiety, and stress. Motherwort is also believed to have a positive effect on the cardiovascular system, with some studies suggesting that it may help support heart health. Additionally, motherwort is used by some women to help regulate menstrual cycles and ease symptoms of menopause.
