Your pelvic tissues do a lot of work during labor—stretching, swelling, and sometimes even tearing—which can leave everything feeling pretty tender in the early postpartum days. A warm herbal sitz bath is a soothing way to care for your body and support the healing process. This gentle ritual can help reduce inflammation, ease soreness, and bring comfort in those first sacred days after giving birth.

Nettle Soda Bread
This nettle soda bread is one of my favorite quick bread options. It’s quick, delicious, and pairs wonderfully with a hearty soup or a breakfast scramble. It's wonderful when enjoyed warm, slathered with butter and a sprinkle of salt.
Nettle is a nourishing addition to this simple bread. It's rich in iron, calcium, magnesium, and several other important nutrients. This recipe is a great way to use those lovely nettle tops that emerge in the spring.
