Deeply rooted in traditional Western herbalism, our organic motherwort comes from Leonurus cardiaca, a member of the mint family long associated with emotional steadiness and the heart. Motherwort has been worked with for centuries as a grounding, bitter herb, often turned to during times of stress, overwhelm, or emotional intensity.
The aerial parts of the plant are harvested and carefully dried to preserve their natural character. Motherwort is known for its distinctly bitter flavour, a quality traditionally associated with its strength and effectiveness. It is most commonly prepared as a tea or tincture, and has often been paired with other classic heart herbs such as hawthorn in traditional formulas.
Motherwort tea produces a strong, herbal infusion that reflects the plant’s bold nature. Rather than being a gentle sipping tea, it has historically been used with intention and respect, valued for its steadying presence. Herbal traditions have long described motherwort as cooling and drying, making it a plant often chosen during periods of emotional heat or tension.
At Apotheka, our organic motherwort is sourced with care, prioritizing quality, freshness, and integrity. Each batch is selected to ensure a clean, vibrant herb suitable for teas, tincturing, and traditional preparations. Whether you are familiar with motherwort or newly exploring its place in herbal practice, this plant offers a powerful connection to time honoured botanical wisdom.
