Chasteberry

Chasteberry (Vitex agnus-castus), also known as monk’s pepper or vitex, is a renowned herb traditionally used to support women’s health. When incorporated into teas or tinctures, chasteberry may help alleviate premenstrual syndrome (PMS) symptoms, regulate menstrual cycles, and support hormonal balance. Its active compounds are believed to influence the pituitary gland, aiding in the normalization of progesterone levels.

Energetically, chasteberry is associated with purification, chastity, and spiritual strength. In spiritual practices, it has been utilized to promote celibacy and enhance focus during meditation. Incorporating chasteberry into rituals can aid in fostering self-discipline and clarity of mind.

Whether you’re brewing a tea to support hormonal health, preparing a tincture for menstrual relief, or incorporating it into spiritual practices for purification and focus, dried chasteberry is a versatile addition to your herbal collection.
