Motherwort

(Leonurus cardiaca)

Product description
Motherwort is the nurturing herb of protection, heart-healing, and courage. Its soft, fuzzy leaves carry a gentle, stabilizing energy—scatter dried foliage around your altar to shield the heart, steep it in a comforting ritual bath to soothe emotional turbulence, or weave it into sachets to carry its steadfast, protective embrace with you.

Folklore Story
Named for its maternal care, Motherwort was traditionally placed on birthing beds in medieval Europe. Women believed its presence eased labor and guarded both mother and child. One tale tells of a mother who, while weaving a wreath of Motherwort, felt her anxieties dissolve and welcomed her newborn with calm confidence—cementing its reputation as “The Birth Guardian.”
