Schisandra Lovin'... An herbal ally for whole body resilience + hormonal health Herbal Womb Wisdom

    • Alternative Health

Oh, schisandra, what a great herbal love.

I know, not as popular as say, dandelion or nettles, but to me, schisandra is just as essential for our apothecaries. 

Perhaps you're familiar with this plant already, maybe you think of schisandra as an adaptogen, or as a lung tonic, or even as an herb to contain and replenish fluids in the body... or maybe you're completely new to this beautiful herb. 

Either way, this episode will help you to get to know this plant - which is not commonly thought of as a hormonal or sexual health herb - in a new light.

Truly, an herbal ally for transitions in our cycling years, and beyond.
