Big Hug Tincture

Big Hug tincture combines “happiness herbs” like motherwort, mimosa flowers (albizia julibrissin), and rose, each known for their mood-enhancing properties. Motherwort calms and reduces stress, mimosa, also known as the "happiness tree," supports a healthy mood and stress response, while rose helps ease pent-up emotions, promoting emotional balance and heart opening.

Yes, we love using Big Hug to ease period cramps and other symptoms around your cycle. Motherwort is one of the best herbs for period pain because it tones the uterus and helps stimulate menstruation by increasing uterine circulation.

At the same time, it can help your mood! Motherwort, rose, and mimosa are all mood enhancing herbs, which can offer some emotional balance and relief for those who need it around their cycles.

No. While Motherwort (Leonurus cardiaca) is a tonic herb for female reproductive health outside of pregnancy, it mildly stimulates the uterus and can actually promote menses, so it falls in the category of herbs not to take while pregnant.

Yes, Big Hug is safe for postpartum use and offers several benefits during this time! Motherwort is a great herb for postpartum because it supports uterine recovery after birth, supports postpartum hormone balance, and is a natural mood boosting supplement for postpartum.

If you're new to herbal mood enhancers, start with a small dose to gauge your body's response. Big Hug is designed to be a gentle, supportive blend that can be taken one to three times daily. Incorporate it into your routine by taking it directly on your tongue (it’s delicious) or adding it to sparkling water, smoothies, or tea.
