Every year, as flu season rolls in, many of us brace for the sniffles, coughs, and overall run-down feeling that comes with it. In my home, we’ve had our fair share of long nights, warm tea, and attempts to soothe little ones—and grown-ups—through seasonal bugs. It’s actually those very experiences that inspired me to create our Gentle Mending Box , a bundle of comfort-focused items crafted with intention, natural ingredients, and a whole lot of heart.
Before Moonlight Elixirs was even a business, I relied heavily on homemade remedies, especially elderberry syrup made from the elderberries growing right in our backyard. For years, that syrup helped support my family’s wellness through every flu wave that came our way. It was one of the first things I reached for when symptoms started creeping in, and it truly saved our household more times than I can count.
Sharing those benefits—with real, natural ingredients and no shortcuts—became one of my biggest motivations for offering these remedies to others. I wanted families like yours to have access to the same comfort, care, and support that we depended on.
And that’s how the Gentle Mending Box was born.
What’s Inside the Box — and Why It Helps
Every item in this set is chosen with purpose, designed to soothe, restore, and bring a moment of comfort on even the toughest days.
🍇 Homemade Elderberry Syrup
Made with love—and originally grown from the elderberries in my own backyard—this syrup supports the body during cold and flu season. Elderberries are known for their immune-supporting properties, offering a natural boost when you’re feeling under the weather.

An instant mood-lifter! Warm, cozy socks help keep your body temperature regulated and provide a sense of comfort when rest is the best medicine.

Why This Box Matters During Flu Season
When someone in your home isn’t feeling well, the smallest comforts become the biggest blessings. A warm bath, cozy socks, a soothing rub, and a burst of clean air in the room really can make all the difference.
More than just a product bundle, this box is a reflection of real homes, real families, and real moments of needing a little extra care. My own family has leaned on these remedies through countless flu seasons, long before they were products on shelves. They’re tried, trusted, and loved—because they’ve supported us firsthand.
And now, I’m honored to share them with you.
