Known in TCM as Yi Mu Cao (“Benefiting Mother Herb”), it has been used for centuries in women’s wellness preparations across both Eastern and Western traditions.
• Organic Sage Leaf (Salvia officinalis) — A culinary and medicinal herb with one of the longest recorded histories in European herbalism, used since ancient Greek and Roman times. Sage has been a staple of women’s wellness preparations in Western folk herbalism for centuries.
• Organic Elder Flower (Sambucus nigra) — The delicate flowers of the elder tree, widely used in European folk medicine and culinary traditions. Elder Flower is prized for its light, floral character and long history in cooling and soothing botanical preparations.
• Organic Lemon Balm (Melissa officinalis) — A calming aromatic herb in the mint family with a long history of use in European herbal traditions for its gentle, soothing character.
• Organic Red Raspberry Leaf (Rubus idaeus) — A traditional European and North American herb with a long history of use in women’s wellness preparations in Western folk herbalism.
• Organic Dandelion Leaf (Taraxacum officinale) — A deeply nutritive botanical widely used in European and Western herbal traditions as a mineral-rich tonic herb.
• Organic Chickweed (Stellaria media) — A cooling, mild herb with a long history of use in European folk herbalism, traditionally used in soothing and cooling preparations.

TCM Element Alignment

• Metal Element — Sage Leaf, Elder Flower, Chickweed: In traditional Chinese medicine, the Metal element governs the lung system and the body’s protective boundary and surface. Cooling, aromatic, and clarifying botanicals with long histories in European soothing preparations align with Metal’s association with refinement, clarity, and the body’s protective interface.
• Wood Element — Motherwort (Yi Mu Cao), Dandelion Leaf: The Wood element governs the liver system and the smooth flow of qi and blood. Motherwort’s TCM classification as a blood-moving, liver-associated herb and Dandelion’s bitter, liver-supportive character in both Western and Chinese traditions align with Wood’s association with flow, renewal, and the liver system.
• Water Element — Red Raspberry Leaf, Oatstraw: The Water element governs the kidney-adrenal system and the body’s deepest reserves of vitality. Deeply nourishing, mineral-rich botanicals with long histories in women’s wellness traditions align with Water’s restorative, replenishing character.
• Earth Element — Lemon Balm, Oatstraw: The Earth element governs the spleen-stomach system and the body’s capacity for nourishment and calm. Gentle, grounding, and soothing herbs align with Earth’s centering, sustaining qualities.
