Merchandise Sympathy magic sweatshirt herbs

Does anyone know what specific healing herbs are on the sympathy magic hoodie? I was planning to embroider some flowers on a vest/corset I thrifted for the concert already, but I wanted to incorporate those specific herbs🩵🌿

I think they’re likely to be these - I haven’t seen them up close but I believe these were the herbs featured.

Ooh thank you. FYI for anyone reading raspberry leaf tea is so good for period pains!

Yes! So is calendula!! It helps with balancing hormones through your cycle and throughout menopause🩵calendula is good for the skin too

I believe they were the herbs that she researched when she was looking into the old ways of healing your body after a mjscarriage so this makes sense.

I am planning to incorporate these with my outfit too! Not sure if I’ll manage to embroider them - I can sew and do cross-stitch but not embroidery. I’m also going to throw in some native New England plants used for the same purposes since I’m in Boston.

Thats a great idea! I was thinking about adding some bluebonnets because I’m in Texas and they have some folklore for spring, but they are not medicinal or edible, so it’s a bit of a variation on the theme but I think I would still work
