    PAAVANI Ayurveda Women's Moon Oil

    Balance Menstruation, Perimenopause & Menopause With our Women's Moon Oil

    As a female-founded and operated business, we understand women and how it feels to navigate through the moon cycles. We have first-hand experiences of what it is like to endure hormone imbalance, discomfort during menstruation, bloating, exhaustion and mental unrest due to the natural rhythms of the female body. Hence, it’s instinctive that we would feel called to help our sisters through the discomfort by prioritizing and supporting women’s health through our Ayurvedic offerings. We believe that through practicing self-care and utilizing the appropriate herbal allies to support the ebbs and flows of the female cycle, we can all enjoy a heightened quality of life and improved overall health. From our Women’s Blend Tea to our Herbal Yoni Steam , we have Ayurvedic remedies to balance menstruation, perimenopause, menopause, and yoni health. Today, we are excited to announce the latest addition to our line of female support - our Woman’s Moon Oil! This transdermal, topical, roll-on oil is formulated for women by women to facilitate nourishment, comfort and ease through the cycles of womanhood when it is needed the most. 

    Women’s Connection to the Moon


    Our Women’s Moon Oil is named after the moon due to the special connection between women and the moon. Just as the moon moves through its phases, the female body also waxes and wanes through its own monthly rhythm, drawing parallels between the lunar and menstrual cycles. For example, the moon's cycle lasts about 29.5 days, which is interestingly close to the average length of the menstrual cycle, which is 28 days. Women’s monthly cycles are often seen as energetically aligned with the moon, with phases like the new moon associated with menstruation (a time of reflection and renewal) and the full moon with ovulation (a time of creativity and fertility). In various traditions, the moon is often associated with feminine energy, known in many spiritual practices as the "Divine Feminine" or yin energy. This energy is nurturing, introspective and intuitive. Many believe that women, especially during certain lunar phases, are more in tune with their intuition and emotional insights.


    While menopause is not as commonly associated with the moon in the same way the menstrual cycle is, there are symbolic and energetic connections that link the two. In Ayurveda and other holistic systems, menopause is often seen as a time when women transition from a more active reproductive stage (symbolized by the waxing/full moon) into a more reflective and spiritually focused stage (symbolized by the waning or new moon). Tuning into and honoring this beautiful connection to the moon no matter what phase of life a woman is in helps her to reconnect with the natural rhythms of life in a more expansive and spiritual way, allowing for greater alignment, renewal, ease and balance.

    Women's Moon Oil | For female support throughout all cycles & phases


    Formulated for women by women, our Women’s Moon Oil relieves menstrual discomfort such as cramping, bloating, backaches & digestive disruption, as well as mental distress like anxiety, upset, sadness & irritability. This transdermal oil can also be utilized to address symptoms associated with perimenopause & menopause, such as hot flashes, insomnia, headaches, mood changes & trouble concentrating. Recenter your feminine nature & breathe in soothing aromatherapy with this natural, comforting women’s remedy. 

    The Linguistic Connection Between Menstruation & Menopause


    For those interested in Latin roots and the English language, menses (menstruation) originates from the Latin word mensis, which translates to month. Menopause is from the Greek words men (month) and pausis (pause); thus, menopause signifies the end of monthly cycles. It is fascinating to understand how words capture their meanings and how language beautifully depicts the essence of natural cycles and transitions in a woman’s life. 

    Formulated for Women, By Women


    In honor of the female body, which creates life, we set out with the intention to formulate a topical product that relieves the discomforts associated with female moon cycles. Our Women’s Moon Oil has a unique, synergistic blend of effective, time-tested, Ayurvedic herbal ingredients chosen for their specific actions in supporting all phases of women's health. This Ayurvedic remedy will ease menstrual discomforts such as cramping, bloating, backaches and digestive disruption, and balance mental distress like anxiety, overwhelm, sadness and irritability. This oil can also be utilized to address symptoms associated with perimenopause and menopause, such as hot flashes, insomnia, headaches, mood changes and trouble concentrating. Recenter your feminine nature and breathe soothing aromatherapy with this natural, comforting women’s remedy. 

    The Herbal Ingredients Behind Our Woman’s Moon Oil


    Scroll down to explore the actions and benefits of each Ayurvedic herbal ingredient used to formulate our Woman’s Moon Oil.


    Mahanarayan Oil


    A traditional Ayurvedic remedy, mahanarayan oil is a blend of over twenty potent herbs such as ashwagandha, turmeric, shatavari and gokshura, slowly infused into sesame oil. It is revered for its healing, anti-inflammatory and soothing properties and is particularly beneficial for alleviating menstrual cramps and menopausal symptoms. Mahanarayan oil can also support healthy digestion and a downward flow of energy, which, in turn, helps to maintain balance throughout the body and mind.


    Castor Oil


    Derived from the castor bean plant, castor oil has been praised for its numerous health benefits, including soothing menstrual cramps and menopausal discomfort. This herbal ally is known for its ability to relieve tension, improve circulation and reduce excess heat when applied topically. Additionally, for menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes and mood changes, castor oil can offer relief by balancing hormonal levels and promoting overall well-being.


    Sunflower Oil


    Applying sunflower oil topically can be a wonderful addition to a woman's health routine! Not only does sunflower oil contain antioxidants and vitamins that nourish the skin, but it can also help ease symptoms of PMS and menopause. When massaged onto the abdomen, sunflower oil's anti-inflammatory properties may help alleviate cramps and bloating during PMS. Additionally, during menopause, its moisturizing qualities can relieve dry skin and its omega-6 fatty acids might assist in hormone balance.


    Clary Sage


    A versatile essential oil known for its comforting and balancing properties, making it a popular choice for women’s health. With a warm and earthy aroma, this fragrant oil can help relax muscles and provide analgesic relief from cramps, backache and bloating during that time of the month. Additionally, its hormone-balancing effects can help alleviate headaches and reduce hot flashes associated with menopause. Even more, clary sage can help harmonize emotions such as irritability, overwhelm and anxiety associated with your moon cycle or menopause journey. Bid adieu to bothersome symptoms and say hello to optimal balance!


    Geranium


    A fragrant flower known for its impressive benefits in alleviating moon cycle and menopausal symptoms. This aromatic oil possesses anti-inflammatory and relaxing properties that help ease the body and mind during menses, perimenopause and menopause by reducing cramping, improving mood, supporting better sleep and relieving hot flashes.


    Marjoram


    A fabulous herbal addition that contains unique benefits for women during their moon cycle and menopause. Its sweet, woodsy and floral aroma can promote relaxation and relieve stress. Also, marjoram’s calming properties may alleviate menstrual discomfort and hormonal imbalances. Additionally, marjoram’s soothing properties can help ease digestive discomfort, reduce bloating and expel gas from the digestive system. By incorporating marjoram essential oil into your daily female wellness practices, you may experience a more balanced and harmonious journey through your menstrual and menopausal journey.


    Eucalyptus


    Eucalyptus oil, derived from the eucalyptus tree, offers refreshing comfort to support the feminine cycle. For women managing PMS symptoms, massaging eucalyptus oil onto the lower abdomen can help alleviate discomfort and cramping, providing a soothing relief during that time of the month. Further, during menopause, eucalyptus oil's cooling properties can assist in managing hot flashes and various emotions when applied to pulse points or through aromatherapy. 

    How to Use Women's Moon Oil


    Menstrual Phase & Menstrual Cramps


    During menstruation, apply Women's Moon Oil on the abdomen in a gentle, circular motion as well as the back to alleviate menstrual cramps and muscle tension, minimize bloating and reduce digestive disruption. You may also apply the oil to your wrists or chest to enjoy its aromatherapeutic benefits and promote harmony and relaxation in the body and mind.


    With a Castor Oil Pack


    Our Women’s Moon Oil is a fabulous addition to enhance the effectiveness of a castor oil pack. Simply apply the Moon Oil directly onto the area of concern and then place the castor oil pack on top for soothing relief.


    Menopause Symptoms


    For menopausal symptoms like hot flashes, insomnia, dryness and various emotions, apply Women's Moon Oil on pulse points and inhale its aroma for a calming effect.

    Waxing & Waning Through the Cycles
