Welcome to The Mother’s Temple, a sanctuary of warmth and reverence, where the path of woman into motherhood is honored as Divine.

This is a space where your story is honored, your heart and womb are nourished, and your spirit is held in ceremony, so that you may remember the sacred power woven through you and your lineage.

Whether you are preparing to welcome life, softening into postpartum, walking through loss, or seeking a deeper connection to your feminine essence, these sessions meet you compassionately where you are, in the season you are in.

Birth Trauma Debriefing

Investment: $444 for 2-60 minute sessions

Birth leaves lasting imprints on our bodies, hearts, and spirits. When the experience does not unfold as hoped, a mother may carry unspoken grief, fear, or shame long after her baby arrives. Birth trauma can take many forms, such as unexpected or unnecessary interventions, an emergency cesarean, feeling silenced or dismissed by providers, lack of support, being abandoned by your midwife, separation from your baby, or even simply the heartbreak of a birth that felt different from your prayers. These tender wounds often remain unseen, yet they shape a mother’s sense of safety, her connection to her body, and even her future births. These tender wounds are often left unseen with the potential to impact her future births as well, but here, they are honored and held with compassion.

The Birth Trauma Debriefing Journey is a two-part sacred container of healing and reclamation, held over two 60-minute sessions.

Session One: The Telling
A safe space for you to share your birth story in full, where you will be deeply witnessed without judgment, interruption, or minimization. This session is about unburdening, speaking your truth, and being fully held, seen, and validated.

Session Two: The Integration
Together, we will revisit your story with tenderness, honoring what was lost, naming what was gained, and weaving back the threads of your strength. Through ritual, somatic practices, and spiritual guidance, you will be supported in integrating your experience and reclaiming your power.

You cannot erase what happened, but you can transform and shift how it lives within you, so that you may step forward lighter, stronger, and clearer.

This space is open to all mothers, no matter when or how your birth unfolded. It is never too late to be witnessed and honored.

RECLAIM YOUR BIRTH STORY

IN-PERSON POSTPARTUM CARE

This is specialized, hands-on tending rooted in the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda and the sacred art of feminine care. During your postpartum season, you are held in warmth, nourished with herbal remedies, oils, and foods, and supported through bodywork and ceremony that honor the profound threshold you have crossed. These sessions are a sanctuary of presence, touch, and deep listening — restoring balance, soothing your nervous system, replenishing fluids, and guiding you into rejuvenation, radiance, and strength.

Why Postpartum Care Is So Important

The postpartum season, often called the fourth trimester, is a sacred and transformative threshold in a mother’s life. Just as the baby is born, so too is the mother. This tender window shapes her vitality, radiance, and emotional well-being for decades to come. When honored with rest, ritual, and nourishment, it becomes a time of profound healing, restoration, and empowerment. When overlooked, it can leave deep imprints of depletion, grief, and disconnection.

Postpartum care is not a luxury or indulgence; it is deep lineage work.

It is the fertile soil from which your strength, your joy, and your bond with your child will grow. To honor the mother is to honor the future, for when she is nourished, generations are nourished. This care is your birthright and a blessing every mother deserves to receive.

Ayurvedic Postpartum Care

Ayurveda, “the knowledge of life”, is the oldest living system of healing on Earth, born in India more than 5,000 years ago. Rooted in the rhythms of nature, Ayurveda teaches that food is medicine, and that warmth, oil, and sweetness rebuild a mother’s body after birth. Through simple meals, spices, and rituals, this ancient wisdom restores balance, replenishes vitality, and awakens the glow of ojas—the essence of health, radiance, and love.

This tradition states that,

“The first 40 days after birth shape a woman’s health and well-being for the next 40 years of her life.”

At The Mother’s Temple, the postpartum season is honored as a sacred passage of renewal, where mama is tended to with deep warmth, devotion, and reverence. Rooted in Ayurvedic wisdom, herbal medicine, and feminine ceremony, my care weaves together practices that calm your nervous system, replenish sacred fluids, and restore balance to body and spirit. Through nourishing foods and elixirs, ritual touch, ancestral herbs, and a listening presence, you are invited to soften, to be replenished, and to rise rooted in your feminine grace, beauty, and radiant power.

Sessions Include:

  • Ayurvedic Postpartum Rituals: healing rituals tailored to your needs, promoting balance, wellness, warmth, and womb care. 

  • Herbal Baths and Abhyanga (Warm Oil Massage): Enjoy soothing treatments designed to support your physical and emotional well-being.

  • Guided Meditations and Energy Work: Experience techniques that promote deep relaxation and emotional integration.

  • Womb Massage & Belly Binding: Gentle and nurturing womb massage paired with traditional belly binding to support postpartum recovery, promote healing, and reconnect with your feminine essence.

  • Herbal Teas: Handcrafted, nourishing blends of herbs designed to soothe, heal, and energize your body and spirit during postpartum and beyond.

  • Meal Prep + Recipe Book: Wholesome, Ayurvedic-inspired meal prep and recipes tailored to support recovery, enhance vitality, and provide optimal nourishment for mothers.

SACRED CEREMONIES

Ceremonies are ancient gateways, woven into the fabric of womanhood to honor the profound passages of birth, motherhood, and the cycles of life. They are holy pauses; spaces to remember who we are, to root into our lineage, and to connect to the divine feminine that lives within us. In honoring these rites of passage, we reclaim the beauty and depth of our feminine cycles and the wisdom they bring, ensuring that no phase of life is passed through unnoticed or unsupported.

Ways We Can Walk Together

  • Mother Blessing Ceremony

    A sacred circle woven in beauty to honor the pregnant mother. Unlike a baby shower, this rite of passage centers on you, your body, your spirit, your journey. Surrounded by flowers, prayers, and song, you are held in love as you prepare to cross the threshold of birth.

    Through intention-setting, guided blessings, and beautiful rituals, your community weaves protection, strength, and grace around you. Together, we curate a ceremony unique to your beliefs and lineage and call in the ancestors, the elements, and the divine feminine to walk with you into labor.

    You will leave this ceremony feeling loved, supported, and reminded that you are not alone.

    Investment: Inquire
    Each blessing is uniquely woven for the mother, shaped by her intentions and her community.

  • Closing of the Bones

    This ancient ritual honors the profound passage of birth, loss, or life transition. In the tender time after a baby arrives, or after any experience that has stretched you open—your body, heart, and spirit long to be gathered back home.

    The Closing of the Bones is a ceremonial return: a wrapping and holding that helps you integrate, release, and reclaim your strength. Through warm oil massage, herbal support, womb steam, guided meditation, and the sacred practice of gentle binding, your body is reminded that it is safe to soften and to heal.

    This ceremony is for all women, whether you are weeks, months, or years postpartum, grieving a loss, or moving through a major transformation. This ceremony holds you in rebirth and renewal, creating a cocoon where your energy, your bones, and your spirit are lovingly drawn back together. You will emerge feeling more whole, grounded, and ready to step into the next chapter of your life with clarity and grace.

  • Womb Steam & Feminine Rites of Passage

    The Womb Steam Ceremony offers a gentle yet powerful ritual of warmth, medicinal herbs, and prayer to soothe, cleanse, and awaken the womb. It supports postpartum healing, menstrual harmony, fertility preparation, and the release of grief or stagnant energy.

    The Feminine Rites of Passage extend this care into the broader arcs of womanhood — honoring menarche (first bleed), motherhood, miscarriage or abortion, menopause, or any sacred threshold of becoming. Each rite is tailored uniquely, weaving ritual, prayer, and ancestral wisdom to anchor you in remembrance and renewal.

    Whether you are steaming, blessing, or marking a threshold, this work is about coming home to yourself. You emerge feeling grounded, nourished, and deeply reconnected to the timeless rhythm of the feminine within you.

To honor the mother is to honor life itself—her healing is the soil from which joy, strength, and love will root, blossom, and bloom.
