About Rooted Woman

Every product brought to life is created with the needs of mothers in mind. Will it support nourishment, vitality, well-being? Knowing that mothers are the lifeblood of their communities, we are deeply committed to supporting them.

When mothers are well, families and communities are well.

We also believe in the wisdom of traditional ways: small-batch to preserve potency, ceremonial in creation (because intentions + prayers matter), and rooted in slow herbalism, with all batches steeped for a moon cycle.

Rooted Woman Botanicals is led by me, Bethany Wilde — mother of two girls, herbalist, and author. As a women’s health bodyworker, I have been in the space of holistic women’s healing for years. I wrote a book called Pelvic Awakening about this work.

After walking through multiple pregnancies, I found myself needing more — deep replenishment, nourishment, and re-mineralizing to return to a state of vitality. The formulas I now offer are the very ones that have been most life-giving and supportive to me.

Underlying it all is a devotion: to the well-being, support, and centering of mothers.

Thank you for being here.

About the Products

  • Starting with high quality ingredients. Sourcing the highest-quality, always organic, fresh herbs and ingredients is essential — it directly impacts the potency, vibrancy, and healing power of each remedy. You can see, smell, and feel the difference.

  • Supporting small, mother-owned businesses first. We also focus on sourcing from local, ethical companies with earth-friendly practices and who care about their workers.

  • Traditionally made. All liquid tinctures (elixirs, oxymels) are slow-steeped for a moon cycle. We never use heat extraction, which speeds up the process but can compromise the nutrient profile of the final medicine.

  • Infused with intention. I speak prayers for thriving health over each batch, and I deeply believe this affects the final product. Each batch is ritually and energetically created.

Rooted Woman Botanicals is a small business. I say “we” often but currently it is a one-woman operation and includes my daughters helping along the way.

Every batch is made by hand, with care and intention.

FAQs

  • Oxymels are a delicious and nutritive way to get in your herbal medicine.

    Herbs are steeped for a moon cycle in RAW apple cider vinegar and then honey is added after straining. This is the best way to extract vitamins and minerals from the plant, which is why we use it for our nutritive tonics.

    Optimal storage is in a cool, dark place, and they will last around 6-12 months.

    Oxymels are kitchen medicine - that means you can't really go wrong! With an apple cider vinegar and honey base instead of an alcohol extract, there is less of a specific dose.

    There are suggested doses of 1-3 teaspoons per day, but please follow your intuition.

    They are delicious taken straight or pour a dose into your favorite sparkling drink or add to a latte.

  • All of our herbal tinctures are made as elixirs - herbs steeped for a moon cycle in organic alcohol and organic 100% coconut-based vegetable glycerine. This is the best blend for potent medicine and taste.

    Dosage for elixirs are generally 1–2 dropperfuls per day as needed. Start with 1 dropperful and adjust based on your needs.

    We recommend using elixirs within 2 years. They don’t really go “bad”; they will just lose potency after that time. Optimal storage is in a cool, dark place.

  • PREGNANCY:

    Best practice during pregnancy is to use safe herbs (PDF coming soon on this!) and start with small doses and see how you feel, then you can adjust from there to work up to the full dose as needed.

    Always check in with your intuition and any health care provider you are working with.

    If you are pregnant, choose products within the fertility/pregnancy category (or even child wellness).

    KIDS:

    Kids can take oxymels, and they often love them. We recommend staying within the products in the Child Wellness category, but you can also add in Nourish for a daily multivitamin. It contains all kid-safe herbs.
