⋒ For uterine health: The River encourages the uterus to release old, stuck matter which appears during our period as brown, black, dark wine-red blood, ꃼ a sign there is stagnation in the uterus. When the body struggles to release it we call those cramps. Sometimes this unsuccessful attempt to release old, stuck matter presents as serious period pain, headaches/migraines, PMS/PPMD, and more. We can also have stuck emotional energy/grief, an unintentional holding that causes pain and/ or the pelvis to not release effectively. Remember, the period is a monthly clearing and release. Also, use this blend for postpartum clearing / release of birthing matter during the 1-2 week time after giving birth.

⋒ For those bodies that don’t menstruate: The River blend is also useful for a constipation pattern.

⋒ For prostate issues check out this specific clearing blend: The Root

***Make sure not to steam the penis or testicles.***

⋒ Upper respiratory: For upper respiratory steams (head, chest) when mucus is stuck in the sinuses and lungs. These plants are also working on areas that hold grief, so please send an email if you want to discuss how to go slowly and gently moving through grief with this blend (our strongest clearing blend in the steaming herbs collection).
