Root Blend | Herbal Tea for the Pre-Menstrual Phase VEDDA^®

Somewhere after ovulation, the light in your day changes. Your energy withdraws. What felt manageable last week feels like too much. The noise of the world starts feeling closer than it should.

The Root blend is here to support this phase. This cup works to calm excess heat in the body and mind, ease tension and mood swings and nourish you from within. The intention of the blend is to help the days before your period feel lighter and your evenings feel peaceful and steady.

The luteal phase begins after ovulation and runs until the first day of your next period. In most women, that's roughly days 17 to 28. The autumn of your cycle.

For the first stretch you may feel your most focused, your most yourself. Toward the end things soften. Progesterone drops. The world gets louder. The tears come more easily. The tolerance for people who take up more space than they earn goes quiet and then goes away.

None of this is a problem. All of it is on time.

This tea is made for the days you want the volume down. It helps you feel lighter, nourished and helps your body to cool down during this intense phase.
