With DHT blocking properties, high vitamins, minerals & silica content, this brew aims to help improve bone density, stimulate the hair follicles, combat fatigue, ease joint pain & improve circulation. We demand SO much of our bodies on a daily basis. The idea of this medicinal tea was to craft an offering that will be soothing to our nervous system while helping bring vitality & energy to our bodies. One that nourishes that which gives us the incredible ability to move through life. Feeding the bones, hair & nails that are extensions of our beings, of our ancestors. The ‘That Which Binds Us’ line was first inspired by my own experience. After I had the ick, I suffered a significant hair loss which was very traumatic. These herbs are tried & true allies I have used for my own hair, nails & bones for many years. They’ve also significantly helped me recover after the ick. They’re wonderful for postpartum or anyone struggling with loss, weakness & fatigue.  I am grateful my experience allowed me to conjure up these deeply supportive allies (That Which Binds Us Elixir, this tea, Nourish Your Roots & Roots of Sif and Odin) for those who need extra strength & resilience in their lives. Meet the 8 powerhouse Ingredients, all Wildcrafted or Organic: 🌀 Stinging Nettle Root & Leaf ~ Stinging Nettle is known as one of the top hair and bone allies. Nettle is known to specifically help block DHT - a hormone that if overproduced can be detrimental to hair follicles. Studies reveal that nettle extract may help block the production of DHT by reducing the production of the 5-alpha-reductase enzyme. Nettle is packed with a plethora of vitamins and minerals, giving this ally the unique ability to help combat hair loss while also aiding in hair re-growth. The flavonoids and phenols in Nettles work as a powerful antioxidant, helping rid free radicals and help heal damaged hair strands, roots and follicle. Nettle leaves are also rich in silica, iron and sulfur. All of which play an important role in making collagen and glucosamine, which are vital for healthy hair, bones, nails and joints.   Horsetail ~ Horsetail is thought of as a deeply wise ally, being a prehistoric plant, it’s referred to as a “living fossil” dating back over 400 million years ago. Being such an ancient plant, they’re used in virtually every culture. As a Saturn-ruling plant, they conjure fire power, energetically bringing you prehistoric healing, wisdom and transformation of ancestors and Earth. Horsetail has the keen ability to really pull up all the minerals and energy from deep in the Earth, making them extremely nourishing and nutritive-dense. Horsetail is a mineral rich ally specifically in their high levels of silica ~ coming from the Earth’s Crust. This makes them amazing medicine for helping hair grow faster and stronger while helping reduce dandruff. They are known to restore antioxidants and help improve blood circulation. This helps restore and rebuild thinning hair, leading to healthier hair follicles. I harvest the horsetail I use fresh along the Oregon Coast, so they're filled with the deep nourishing ancient minerals of both Sea and Earth. Horsetail is also extremely rich in minerals such as silica, which is extremely important for rebuilding and strengthening hair, bones, nails and joints. 🌀 Oatstraw ~ This deeply nourishing herb is high in silica, calcium and magnesium, which are essential for stimulating strong growing hair, nails and bones. Oatstraw is thought to be especially beneficial in cases where hair loss and thinning are linked to chronic stress, anxiety or illness. As a nervine, Oatstraw may help relieve the body of stress and anxiety, which can also indirectly prevent hair loss. The micronutrients of Oatstraw can helps strengthen hair, bones, joints and nails while also helping to reduce pain and inflammation. It is also known to help improve brain function and rebuild tissue abnormalities that cause pain. 🌀 Brahmi ~ This sacred Ayurvedic herb helps provide strength and nourishment through the scalp, helping to prevent dandruff. She strengthens the blood vessels, providing oxygen & nutrients that stimulate hair growth & prevent hair loss. She has the ability to cleanse the system by removing toxins which aids healthier hair. The alkaloids in Brahmi bind to the proteins in the hair shaft producing stronger and thicker hair. 🌀 Ginger Root ~ a fantastic ally for so many things. Their warming qualities help stimulate the circulatory system & gets your blood moving which is fantastic for physical & emotional energy. They really help relieve inflammatory issues within the body which helps reduce swelling and tissue damage. Ginger also enhances digestion, allowing your body to better absorb important bone-building nutrients in the foods you eat. This magical root has the ability to modulate blood glucose levels. The midday crash in your energy levels is often due to blood sugar levels abruptly dropping. By keeping blood sugar more stable, ginger can result in natural energy boost. 🌀 Spearmint ~ this beautiful, sweet tasting mint is wonderful in so many ways! It not only adds a lovely flavor to tea, but helps give an extra pep in our step. Being high in antioxidants, they help to deliver vital nutrients to cells and organs. As a nervine, Spearmint brings both uplifting and relaxing qualities which are known to help improve memory and reduce stress. Spearmint is known to help stimulate the hair follicle and help reduce hair loss thanks to it being a powerful anti-androgen. 🌀 Burdock Root ~ this root has been used as one of the top allies to help strengthen hair, nails and bones. Studies indicate that Burdock root is rich in phytosterols and essential fatty acids (including rare long chain EFAs), the nutrients required to maintain healthy scalp, helping to reduce and reverse hair thinning, while promoting natural hair growth. Being an anti-inflammatory, this root may help reduce bone and muscle pain while encouraging joint healing. It’s also wonderful at helping reduce oxidative stress, supporting the ability to raise our natural energy levels. 🌀 Lemon Verbena ~ this ally is so delicious! It holds uplifting and refreshing citrus and herbaceous flavors, making it a wonderful ally at naturally elevating our bodies energy levels. Packed with vitamins necessary for strong hair and nails, Lemon Verbena helps reduce inflammation in the body which may also help relieve oxidative stress.
