Motherwort

Alternative Name:

leonurus cardiaca

Motherwort, or Leonurus cardiaca, is a perennial plant native to Central Asia and southeastern Europe. Historically, it has been used in traditional medicine for its calming and heart-supporting properties.

The name “motherwort” reflects its traditional use in women’s health, particularly for easing childbirth and postpartum recovery. In medieval Europe, motherwort was also used to treat heart conditions, anxiety, and menstrual disorders.

Its botanical name, Leonurus cardiaca, translates to “lion’s heart,” indicative of its historical use to strengthen the heart and promote courage.

Today, motherwort remains a popular herb in herbal medicine for supporting cardiovascular health and alleviating stress.
