The Earth is the original goddess, so when you honour her as you would your body, there is a wonderful resonance – the more of a green goddess you become the more in touch with your feminine power you’ll be. At Faithful to Nature we believe every woman’s body deserves to be celebrated, cherished, honoured and loved – and that means awareness of your intimate feminine nature in a way that is unashamed and empowered.
We’ve put together some of our favourite products that empower you to honour your body with more Earth and body-loving choices as you explore all the intimate facets of your womanhood. There are so many natural options that support women’s health and allow you to be feminine, sensous and fresh without compromising your health or Mother Nature’s
Intimate Balance
Dong Quai
Dong Quai is an adaptogenic herb that can balance women’s hormones and ease the symptoms that come along with those imbalances. If you suffer from premenstrual syndrome, irregular menstrual cycles or menopausal symptoms Flora Force Dong Quai can provide you with some relief. Its analgesic effect relieves muscle cramps and pain too and it also improves circulation and peripheral blood flow.
Shatavari
Shatavari, also called the queen of herbs, promotes fertility, regulates hormones, supports and nourishes the female reproductive organs and reduces PMS by relieving the pain. Shatavari is a superherb every woman should take, according to herbalists. Used for a long time in Ayurvedic medicine, this herb is also embraced today by many alternative medicine practitioners around the world.
Good for pre-menstrural pain
30 Mar, 2015, By Ayumi I read the article shatavari helps to ease pain of period. Since I put this powder, flaxseed oil into my soymilk smoothie and drink everyday, my menstrural pain has been calm down.
Intimate exploration
Yoni or Jade Eggs
Yoni Eggs – or “Jade Eggs” as they are traditionally known – have been used in ancient China for thousands of years. These Yoni Eggs are for toning the pelvic floor muscles, which is great for pre and post-childbirth to help your muscles get ready and then recover afterwards. If you suffer from incontinence or have had any trauma to your sexual organs, these eggs and exercises are a wonderful aid. They also enhance sexual pleasure for both partners and stimulate vaginal reflexology points for greater harmony and hormonal balance in your body.
Note: These Yoni eggs are available in 3 sizes and it is recommended to start with the largest one first, then work your way down to the smallest as your vaginal walls tone and tighten. Many women gain just as much benefit from just using one size egg though– mainly the medium one. If you wish to experiment with sizes, we recommend you try the Yoni Egg set of 3.

Intimate Hygiene
Menstrual Cups
The Mooncup is a reusable menstrual cup, which will last for years unlike single-use sanitary ware. The Mooncup can hold up to three times more liquid than a tampon – giving you longer-lasting, ultra-discreet protection. Using a silicone cup is safer than a tampon, as it’s free of the harsh chemicals found in conventional sanitary product
Take a look the Mooncup product page to decide which size is suitable for you, they come in two sizes.
Hannah Pad
Hannahpad is an eco-friendly range of reusable cloth menstrual pads in cute and colourful designs. These fabric pads are so much better for you than synthetic, chemical-laden pads; they’re free of the plastics, glues and harsh chemicals found in ordinary sanitary ware. Hannahpads will last you for years, saving you money and cutting way down on household waste.
Amazing product
25 Jan, 2016, By Santie I love these! They look pretty and feminine with their floral prints, not clinical and white like the traditional disposable kind of pads. They are easy to wash and dry fairly quickly in our summer heat. They also work much better than expected – they hold quite a bit of liquid and in two cycles I have not had one of these pads leak with normal flow yet. Love, love, LOVE them!
Natracare
Natracare tampons and pads are made from only certified organic 100% cotton and are non-chlorine bleached. They don’t contain synthetic materials, such as rayon, or chemical additives such as binders or surfactants. Certified organic cotton removes the risk of direct exposure to residues from chemical pesticides and fertilisers used on traditional cotton.
Great Value for Money!
