Sweet Release

A Gentle Spell for Hormonal Harmony

Honor your seasons. Embrace your softness. Find beauty in letting go.

There is a special kind of magic in learning to listen to yourself. Sweet Release is a delicate floral botanical infusion inspired by the rhythms of nature, self-care, and the beauty of embracing life's changing seasons.

This thoughtfully layered blend brings together raspberry leaf, red clover, chaste tree berry, and lady's mantle with the bright floral character of hibiscus, the gentle herbal notes of lemon balm, and the refreshing touch of peppermint. Rose petals and golden calendula complete this fragrant blend with a soft, romantic finish, while nettle leaf adds an earthy botanical depth.

With its beautiful balance of floral, herbal, and subtly tart notes, Sweet Release is an invitation to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and make space for moments of comfort and reflection.

Whether you're enjoying a quiet afternoon, journaling through a season of change, or creating a personal self-care ritual, let this cup remind you that every season has its purpose and every version of you deserves a little tenderness.

You don't have to bloom every day. Sometimes the most beautiful thing you can do is simply allow yourself to be.

Honor your rhythm. Release what no longer serves you. Make room for your own kind of bloom.

✦ The Grimoire Saying

“By rose and root, by moon and tide,
I honor the seasons held inside.
I release the weight, I welcome the flow,
And trust the beauty of how I grow.”

✦ Brewing the Spell

You will need: 1 teaspoon of loose-leaf tea or 1 tea sachet, 8 oz of freshly boiled water, and your favorite cup.

1. Place the tea in your cup or infuser.
2. Pour freshly boiled water over the botanicals.
3. Cover and steep for 5–10 minutes, adjusting to your preferred strength.
4. Strain and enjoy as is, or add a little honey for a touch of sweetness.

Apothecary tip: A little honey complements the tartness of hibiscus beautifully. For an extra floral experience, enjoy your tea in your favorite porcelain cup.

✦ The Intention Ritual: Honor Your Seasons

Sweet Release celebrates the idea that we move through seasons just like the natural world. Some seasons are for growing, some for resting, and some for letting go. Use this ritual when you need a moment of self-compassion or are navigating a personal transition.

1. Prepare: Find a comfortable, peaceful place to enjoy your tea.
2. Reflect: While your tea steeps, consider which season of life you find yourself in right now.
3. Release: Think of one expectation, worry, or burden you can give yourself permission to set aside.
4. Welcome: Choose an intention for yourself—self-love, patience, acceptance, grace, or renewal.
5. Nurture: Sip slowly and consider one small way you can show yourself kindness today.

Grimoire prompt: What would change if I gave myself permission to grow, rest, and bloom in my own time?

✦ A Note from the Apothecary

Sweet Release is a botanical tea intended for enjoyment and personal ritual. Although its name and inspiration celebrate feminine rhythms and hormonal symbolism, this blend has not been established as a treatment for hormonal imbalance, menstrual symptoms, menopause, or other medical conditions.

This blend contains chaste tree berry (Vitex agnus-castus), red clover, and other botanicals that may not be appropriate for everyone. Chaste tree may interact with hormonal medications, dopamine-related medications, and certain fertility treatments. Red clover contains plant compounds with estrogen-like activity and may be unsuitable for people with hormone-sensitive conditions or those taking anticoagulant medications. Avoid use during pregnancy or breastfeeding unless specifically advised by a qualified healthcare professional. Consult a healthcare professional before use if you take medication or have an underlying health condition.
