Dre brought by this organic tea that is reputed to help full-term women go into labor. Supposedly it helps with a variety of female complaints—including easing menstral pains—but also helps soothe and tone the uterus. Additionally, pregnant women who are not considered "full-term" are warned not to drink this item.
How can one beverage boast so many fantastic properties? Because, of course, their claims have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.
So I brewed a few cups up for Charlotte already and, so far, no—nothing.
Aside from providing a quality organic tea at outrageously high prices, the dear Yogi Bhajan also includes several strategies for meditation and key insider Yoga tips, as well. Also, consider this scary poem which adorns this inside flap of the tea box:
There is a garden, in which so many plants have grown.
They bear the ambrosial nectar of the Name as their fruit.
Consider this, O wise one, by which you may attain the state of bliss
All around this garden are pools of evil, but within it is the abrosial nectar,
O Siblings of Destiny.
There is only one gardener who tends it.
She takes care of every leaf and branch.
She brings all sorts of plants and plants them there.
They all bear fruit—none is without fruit.
One who recieves the ambrosial fruit of the name from the Guru
O Nanak, such a servant crosses of the ocean of life.
Now that is what every woman needs—a tea with a philosophy! One that can speak poetically, abstractly, and metaphorically about Sikhism.

Everything I've seen about it says it doesn't actually induce labor, but makes contractions more effective. Supposedly it makes labor a LOT easier. It is, however, supposed to tone the uterus, so if Charlotte keeps drinking it after Alyse arrives her belly should get back into shape much sooner. Or so "they" say...
Now you tell me. I guess if Charlotte really bought the buzz about it, it may have acted as a placebo.
Man, Andrea's really pushing for today.
"Clever girl."
