So much of the conversation around children’s emotional health overlooks the fact that parents, especially mothers, are human beings with emotions too. We often expect moms to stay composed, quiet, endlessly patient, and “regulated,” as if their humanity needs to be put on pause for their child’s sake. But when mothers are denied space to feel, children learn that emotions are unsafe or must be hidden.

The truth is: children learn not just from what we say, but from what we embody. A mother who is supported in her rage, grief, and exhaustion doesn’t pass those wounds forward she shows her children that emotion is survivable, that connection is still possible in the midst of intensity. She teaches that repair is part of love.

This is why community care matters. When mothers are held with compassion, they can model compassion. When mothers are allowed to break down, they can show their children what it looks like to rise again. That is how we break cycles of suppression and build cycles of deeper connection.

🌿 Let’s stop demanding composure and start offering support. Mothers deserve to be held too.

After birth, your hormones go through one of the biggest transitions of your lifetime. This natural reset is part of the healing process, but it can leave you feeling tired, emotional, or “off” in your body.

Herbs can be gentle allies in helping your body restore balance. They nourish your nervous system, replenish minerals, and support your reproductive health as you recover.

Here are a few of my favorite herbal supports postpartum:
🌸 Red Raspberry Leaf – tones the uterus & replenishes iron
🌸 Shatavari – nourishes hormones & supports milk supply
🌸 Vitex – encourages cycle balance when it returns
🌸 Oatstraw & Milky Oats – calm the nervous system & rebuild minerals
🌸 Nettle – strengthens thyroid & restores vitality

Remember: postpartum healing is not about snapping back, but slowly rebuilding your reserves and rhythm. Herbs work best when paired with rest, nourishing food, and support you can lean on.

👉 Save this post for when you need a reminder that your healing matters too.

It’s been a quiet few months on here, and I wanted to take a moment to share what’s been happening behind the scenes.

This spring and summer have been a season of deep reflection, simplification, and intentional change for our family. We made the big decision to move from our beloved rural property to a smaller, more manageable home and yard, more centrally located and better suited for this chapter of life. With that move came a lot of letting go - including stepping away from my independent massage practice to reclaim our weekends and spend more time together as a family.

Between stewarding an acre of land, running a small herb farm, working multiple jobs, raising our sweet Bodhi, and Joshua being in school full-time at OSU, we were stretched far too thin. The endless to-do lists and weekends filled with additional labor - rather than rest, were wearing us down.

So, we’re choosing differently.

We’re choosing ease.

We’re choosing presence.

We’re choosing to build a rhythm that nurtures our relationship with God, each other, our son and our own wellbeing.

And from that space, my work is shifting too - becoming more intentional, more sustainable, and more aligned.

What this means for Bodhi Mama Botanicals:

I’ve harvested herbs from our former garden to sustain us through this coming year.

We still have space to grow our herbs, just on a smaller scale. And I remain committed to offering you high-quality, farm-to-bottle, organic botanicals.

My work will now focus entirely on fertility, pregnancy, postpartum, and women’s health.

This includes:
💆🏻‍♀️ Mobile prenatal + postpartum massage for Linn and Benton counties
🤰🏽 Fertility, Pregnancy and Postpartum herbal consults and products
🌸 Doula & Postpartum care rooted in ancient wisdom, nourishment and rest

This is the work that fills me up. That feels most aligned. That serves the seasons of life I’m most called to walk with others through.

Thank you for your patience during this quiet season and for being here as I find my way back, just a little slower and softer this time. 💚

Meal Prep Monday 🍲✨
One of my favorite parts of supporting postpartum families is preparing meals that don’t just fill the belly—but deeply nourish, rebuild, and restore.

The postpartum period is a time of immense healing. Your body is replenishing blood, repairing tissue, and regulating hormones—all while possibly nourishing another life. Food becomes medicine, and what you eat matters.

This week’s menu was crafted with intention and tradition:

🥣 Beef, Barley & Nettle Stew
A hearty, iron-rich stew to support energy and blood replenishment. The beef and nettles both offer highly bioavailable iron, while barley adds fiber and B vitamins to gently support digestion and energy levels. Nettle is also rich in calcium and magnesium—key minerals for calming the nervous system and restoring vitality.

🍜 Chicken Noodle Soup
Made with garlic, turmeric, fenugreek, and ginger-infused bone broth—designed to reduce inflammation, support milk production, and ease digestion. Comforting, immune-boosting, and grounding.

🍛 Thai Chicken Curry
A client favorite! Coconut milk provides healthy fats to support hormone regulation and energy levels. Anti-inflammatory spices and warming flavors promote circulation and comfort.

Postpartum food should feel like a warm hug—nourishing, comforting, and full of life-giving ingredients. If you’re in your fourth trimester, or preparing for it, this kind of nourishment can make a world of difference.

DM me to learn more about postpartum meal prep or to reserve a delivery spot. 💛

Postpartum isn’t just about the baby — it’s a tender, often overwhelming time for the mother.
Her nervous system is doing a lot, and the simplest acts of care can make the biggest difference.

This is your reminder:
You don’t need to have the perfect words.
You don’t need to fix anything.
You don’t need to do anything big.
Just show up — gently, consistently, and with love.

Save this post for when someone you love welcomes a baby — or send it to someone who may not know how to help.

Which of these would feel most soothing to you postpartum?
Tell me in the comments — your insight could help someone else feel more prepared and less alone.
