Your rest matters. Protecting your sleep is the first step in postpartum recovery.

Gentle movement after birth isn’t about “bouncing back.” ✨

It’s about healing your body, reconnecting with your core, and supporting your pelvic floor one simple stretch, walk, or breath at a time.

Even a few intentional minutes a day can make a big impact on your recovery.

Most of us in the West are taught to “bounce back” after birth. 💭

Short hospital stays, limited support, and endless to do lists make the first 42 days anything but sacred.

Traditional postpartum practices show us another way:

• Rest without guilt
• Meals that truly nourish and heal
• Gentle movement to reconnect with your body
• Emotional & community support

Even in the West, you can create your own sacred window. Protect it. Nourish it. Let yourself heal fully… body, mind, and heart.

Postpartum recovery isn’t about restriction.
It’s about rebuilding.

✨ Why this soup works postpartum:

Chicken broth → mineral-rich + gut-healing

Ground turkey → easy-to-digest protein for tissue repair

Potatoes + quinoa → grounding carbs to stabilize blood sugar

Kale + mushrooms → micronutrients + immune support

Trinity + herbs → warming, anti-inflammatory, deeply nourishing

Ayurvedic nutrition emphasizes warm, cooked, easy to digest foods in the postpartum window. This soup checks every box. It’s comforting, simple, and meant to be eaten on repeat while your body does the hard work of recovery.

🫶 If you’re in the postpartum season (or supporting someone who is), start here.

The first 42 days postpartum aren’t just “recovery time” they’re your Sacred Window. ✨

How you care for yourself now sets the tone for your healing, energy, and well being for months to come.

Rest. Nourishment. Boundaries. Support. Rituals. These aren’t optional, they’re essential.

One of the easiest ways to honor this time? Meals that fuel your body without stress.

In the Sacred Window, the body is rebuilding; digestion is delicate, the nervous system is open, and hydration needs more than cold water grabbed in passing.

Warm, herbal teas are one of the simplest ways to support that process:

• gentle hydration
• digestive support
• nervous system regulation
• a moment to pause

Not as a cure.
Not as a miracle.
But as a daily practice of care.
This is what we mean by a Food First approach; small, grounding choices that add up to real support.

✨ Prenatal + postpartum teas are available locally at EPIC Health for mamas who want something practical, warm, and nourishing in this season.

We prepare endlessly for birth…
but those first days after are where real work begins.

The first 42 days aren’t about pushing through or worrying about “bouncing back”. They’re about nourishment, rest, and rebuilding, physically and emotionally.

One of the simplest ways to support postpartum recovery?

✨ Consistent, nourishing meals you don’t have to think about.

As a mama I understand the blur that is being freshly postpartum and that’s what inspired me to help others like me! To do that I created a FREE 7-Day Postpartum Meal Plan Guide designed to support healing, stabilize energy, and take one decision off your plate during an already tender season.

🤍 Whether you’re pregnant, newly postpartum, or supporting someone who is… this matters.

All of my favorite people have been having babies lately.. so you know what that means..

First Days Rice Pudding on the stove.

And, yes, I always set a little aside for myself 🤤

I have been mindfully moving my energy away from social media . Which means that sometimes I’m going days between checking any of my apps.

I will be moving all conversations to my business line 337-502-8877 and will not be checking social media regularly for booking inquiries or changed appointments.

If you typically communicate with me via my personal line, I will also be moving those conversations to business number. This will ensure that multiple sets of eyes will see your message. This will help for a more timely response, if I am in treatments. Andddd in hope, my toddler won’t swipe the message away 😬

Thank you for understanding as I have been working very hard to protect my energetic balance between my work and family life.
If you would like to book or change a massage or facial appointment, you can book online or text 337-502-8877.

First vendor set up at Ascend Yoga Fest!

Being surround by wellness community is so inspiring! I had the chance to connect with so many amazing professionals, mamas and soon-to-be moms (and dads).

A lot of lessons were learned having my own setup. Like, check the weather and learn your POS system BEFORE your first sale… But, the biggest lesson, is how needed this work is.

I can’t wait to share all of the things I’ve been working on behind the scenes and doing more events ❤️
