Rooted Relief: Pain + Relaxation Tonic

Rooted relief was crafted around a new favorite plant of mine: Kava root. I have used this plant on every member of this family for various reasons: Luna when she was sick and couldn’t rest well, my husband when he tweaked his back and was a crabby mess, my baby Cleo when she was teething and crabby, and on myself to help myself relax and unwind, and I found when I took it, it had the added benefit of making Cleo sleep through the night at night (I am not the only breastfeeding mother to have this experience, either!)

Kava is famous for its ability to relieve pain and relax the body and mind, and so I wanted to formulate a tincture that would help relieve pain and also the crabby demeanor that goes along with being in pain. I added chamomile for its ability to relax the nervous system and muscles, provide mild pain relief, and most importantly, chamomile has an affinity for adults and children with that “tantrum type” fussiness! Finally, I added turmeric for its ability to relieve inflammation and pain in a different way, and now we have Rooted Relief!
