Our Mother's Milk Breastfeeding support tea is consistently rated ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 stars by our new mamas.

I've personally tried a LOT of lactation teas, and this one stands head & shoulders above the rest.

It does exactly what it says it will, but it actually tastes great too!

One of my hardest times breastfeeding was when Isla was just 4 weeks old.

She caught RSV off Isaac, which quickly developed into Bronchiolitis.

She was so tiny, and here we were at the Royal Children's Hospital in Sydney, hooked up to continuous oxygen and feeding via nasogastric tube.

We'd barely started breastfeeding, nowhere near having it nicely established between the two of us.

I was sharing an electric pump between myself and three other mothers on the ward, so getting a full session in every 3 hours was near impossible.

Instead, pumping sessions stretched out to 4, sometimes 5 hourly.

My supply very quickly dwindled.

The stress of the whole situation didn't help.

I found out the hard way that when you need to re-establish breastfeeding, support in the form of lactation products is an absolute godsend!

For all my breastfeeding mamas this , Buy a Mother's Milk Breastfeeding Support Tea, and you'll receive a FREE MAMA Calming Essential oil blend.

This tea is the absolute bomb for increasing milk supply fast. It tastes great, too.

For all new mum's that aren't breastfeeding (but deserve just as much support!), buy any tea from our range and add a little note in the 'Add a note' in the cart page letting me know you're a new mama, and I'll add a complimentary essential oil blend to your order 🤍

As a mother, breastfeeding my kids has been one of, if not THE most challenging aspects so far.

There were things I loved about it.

💕The closeness of the cuddles.
💕The feeling of their soft warm skin against mine. 💕Knowing I could comfort my babes through anything.

But there was far more I disliked about it.

Actually dislike feels too nondescript, and doesn't really cut it for me. 'Hated and and thought it could EAD' is far more accurate.

Things like:

⚡️The enduring pain (thanks, Raynauds).
⚡️The whole body shakes, aches & pains of mastitis.
⚡️The painful blocked ducts.
⚡️Engorged breasts that felt like they might explode. ⚡️The leaking through clothes.
⚡️Cluster feeding.
⚡️Lacking any feelings of being my own person.

Still, as many mothers before me have & will long after my time, I persevered.

For 6 weeks with Isaac.
Then 14 months with both my girls.

While it was all still raw for me, too often looked back and felt like I'd somehow 'failed' with Isaac, in my mind I 'only' made it to 6 weeks.

In hindsight, I'm damn proud of myself for all I was able to do, against the odds.

But especially for having the knowledge (& support) to STOP trying to feed Isaac when it was clear it was playing a starring role in my spiraling mental health at the time.

So, a huge high five and an even bigger 'You're doing FU***NG awesome MAMA!!!' for all the new mamas out there.

Together let's get society to a place where we all feel free & completely supported to feed our babes, in whichever form that takes 💕

To show some love for my new mamas this Week:

✨ Breastfeeding? Receive a FREE 'MAMA' oil with every Mother's Milk sold this week

✨ Not breastfeeding? Buy any other tea and let me know you're a new mama in the 'Add a note' section of your cart page, and I'll add a complimentary oil blend to your order, too 🤍🤍

The ultimate hormone boosting herb for women is undoubtedly Ladys Mantle.

This simple herb has been used in tea for thousands of years, aiding women with menstruation, menopause, and even weight loss.

The hallmark benefit of Lady's Mantle is it's ability to regulate menstruation.

Whether you suffer from irregular periods, painful periods, a lack of periods, intermenstrual bleeding or spotting, this tonic herb can help bring your body back into balance.

You can also use her in the postpartum period to encourage healing, and following miscarriage.

So what makes this herb so special?

She contains a unique profile of:

✨Anti-inflammatory flavonoids (think gallic acid & quercetin)
✨Antioxidants that reduce oxidative stress & cellular damage
✨ Analgesics (like salicylic acid) which alleviate pain

On an energetic level, Lady's Mantle is gentle whilst protecting & connecting female energy

She soothes the nervous system and it suitable even for the most sensitive.

It's no wonder alchemists described the dew that formed on lady's mantle leaves as ' Alchemilla' - meaning 'Small Magical one'.

This truly is one magical herb.

Lady's Mantle features pride of place in our Secret Women's Business Hormone Balance Tea.

(which I believe every woman needs in their healthcare toolkit).

Buy it alone, or spoil yourself with some everyday luxury with our WOMAN LUXE Gift pack. It contains everything you need to support healthy hormones & cycles.

My go to advice was given to me years ago by my acupuncturist, and it's served me well ever since - give thanks to the universe for all you want, as if it's actually already happened.

It puts you in the right positive energy to receive all you're after.

It's been a huge part of my process in creating Awakened Health Co.

You see, creating an organic tea brand is something I have wanted to do for almost 9 years, basically since I met my husband.

I spoke about it as a 'maybe one day' kind of dream.

Until one day arrived. The time was just right.

Creating joyful living through quality health products + simple wellness rituals has never felt more important than now.

I'm the first to put my hand up and admit that juggling a busy household with 3 kids, whilst also trying to carve out a fulfilling career for myself that doesn't actually cause more stress, is in itself damn stressful at times.

I don't always manage as well as I'd like.

The road has been bumpy, but at every hiccup I stop and give thanks for all I have, and all I know is coming ✨

It's a practice that has served me well, and keeps me excited as my business baby grows....alongside my human babies 😁

I have some big lofty goals of Awakened Health Co. becoming the household name for natural women's health products.

I hope you'll be there along side me for the ride! 💕

What's the best piece of life advice you've ever received?

3 Easy ways to support your digestion....

We all have times in our lives when our digestion is a little 'off'.

Stress.
Poor diet.
Recovering from illness.
Eating too fast.

These can all contribute to stomach pain as well as feeling sluggish and bloated after eating.

3 super simple things you can do to improve your digestion include:

1./ Avoid eating 'on the go'.

Our bodies need to see food, smell food, and anticipate eating that food to start producing digestive enzymes (which help break down food).

So, eat slowly. Relish each mouthful. 😊

2. / Choose foods that include beneficial bacteria (yoghurt, kefir, kombucha, kimchi), especially following illness which can affect your gut microbiota. Start with small amounts only, and increase as your tolerance increases.

3./ Drink teas (and eat foods) that contain herbs that soothe and support digestion (our CLEANSE Tea has you covered on that front 😉)

This is game changing.......

When it comes to tea, you might be surprised that there is actually a huge difference between organic vs conventional farming methods. Investigations have found pesticides and other additives in some produce even though they claimed the opposite!

Pesticides & other chemicals are harmful to our health, and despite some of them being banned in many countries, their residues are still being detected in concerning quantities in tea.

Some nasty substances you may find in conventionally grown teas:

Endosulfan – a toxic chlorinated insecticide that is chemically similar to DDT, a known carcinogen, endocrine disruptor, and cause of liver, skin & nervous system abnormalities

Acetamaprid – an agricultural insecticide linked to issues with brain development.

Bifenthrin – A pesticide that is similar to glyphosate & a carcinogen.

Carbendazim – A fungicide linked to male reproductive issues, is highly genotoxic (meaning it can cause chromosomal or DNA damage), and is a known endocrine disruptor.

Monocrotophs - a toxic insecticide.

So.....which do you choose in the Conventional Vs. Organic debate?

Double tap if you learned something new!

My go to tool for banishing bloat & relieving indigestion.....

A perfect digestive aid, our peppermint tea is made for enjoying after a meal or before bed.

Peppermint has been used for centuries to aid digestion, reduce gas & bloating, to freshen breath and to relieve headaches and other pains.

We recommend a cup of peppermint tea after every meal, made using 1tsp tea steeped in hot water for 10 minutes to allow the best flavour & benefits to infuse into the tea.

Only 1 ingredient in our tea means the true quality of this organic tea can shine through - you'll know the difference from the first sip!
