It's Moonwise Monday, so I gathered a few of my favorite Red Tent Tips to share...
- Make a Moontime Tea of equal parts dried chamomile, lemon balm and passionflower. Use about a tablespoon of herbs per cup and steep for 10 minutes, add a dab of honey (or not). Delicious!
- Buy yourself a luxurious thick, deep red, cotton bath towel to use just during your menstrual bleed.
- Try washable cloth pads instead of environmentally and body-unfriendly disposables. If you're hesitant, try just one for a few hours and see if you can feel the difference. Soft cotton or bamboo beats the heck out of sticky tabs & that horrid plastic-feel.
- Take a mini-retreat each cycle - lock the door, read a book, light candles, take a bath & renew yourself. Even if it's only for 20 minutes.
- Try the chocolate & raspberry PMS Potion. Yummy!
- Moon Cycle Oil: 10 drops of geranium, 12 drops of lavender, 8 drops of mandarin & 5 drops clary sage in 4oz (125 mls) of almond oil. Use as a massage oil or a few teaspoons in the bath. Enjoy!
