WHY MOMS DO IT


Mother Roasting is the practice of keeping a birthing person warm immediately after birth and in the first few weeks following birth. It rejuvenates their body, helps them to focus and connect with their newborn baby and nourishes them back into being. It also seals up emotional, physical and spiritual gateways that have been opened by birth. Traditional Mother Roasting services include healing massage, cooked foods for nourishment, herbal support and warmth, through binding the womb space, warm teas, herbal baths and herbal tummy paste application.

It's about putting the birthing person in the sacred place to give them a sense of coming home.

It helps birthing people regain their emotional and physical balance through a deep heart-centered, honoring ceremony carried out in a conscious way. It's a combination of soft voice, gentle touch, healing hands and a listening ear in a soulfully designed and prepared environment.
With handcrafted balms, tinctures, teas and all remedies used in the honoring ceremonies, every substance being used and all ingredients are pure and organic. This is a delicate spiritual time that deserves humility, expert care and warmth to help the birth giver heal and seal their birth story.

It is a sacred vow to birthing people to be there for them, and to hold their hand during their special transition in giving life. We will hold this healing space for you.
