⋒ The butterfly’s delicate wings get tossed about on their journey looking for a flower to rest on, to sip life-juice from, so the journey can continue. When there is chronic exhaustion the uterine arteries may struggle to close leading to menstrual spotting between periods or excess menstrual bleeding. This blend gives us extra support by taking its plant intelligence to the blood (and its containers, blood vessels/veins/arteries) and signals them to calm the flow, to rest, to close. This is a toning and astringing blend that encourages the body to regulate menstrual flow.
⋒ This blend is for short cycles and long periods. People who start bleeding before cycle day 28, have longer than four-day periods or bleed two or more times per month. (Please email for a consultation to get on the right steam plan with these bleeding patterns.) This blend is for those who have spotting at any time in the cycle.
⋒ For those bodies that don’t menstruate, this blend is useful for inflamed hemorrhoids or tears in the rectum, diarrhea patterns, leaky gut syndrome, and IBS (irritable bowel syndrome).
***Make sure not to steam the penis or testicles, see here for tips.
⋒ The Butterfly blend of herbs is useful as an upper respiratory steam when there is a nosebleed pattern or allergy symptoms such as watery, itchy eyes, and dripping nose.
