Rebecca’s Notes
I have been creating vaginal steam herbal blends for almost ten years. Growing my own herbs for these blends has deepened my relationship with these plant-teachers—original medicines that connect us to ancient wisdom. Creating healing tools and medicines for women in this way is a sacred art, a practice that honors the connection between nature and healing.
