“Motherhood is a love that surrenders. That sacrifices. That pours out, even when you feel empty.

A love so deep, it remakes you.”

Hi! I’m Lauren, mom & Ayurvedic Postpartum Nutrition Coach.

Through my own pregnancy, birth and postpartum experience, I was shocked to find the lack of information on nutrition during this crucial season of a woman’s life. How, after birth, women aren't given the basic knowledge to properly fuel their bodies for recovery, breast feeding and the increased energy needs during the first fragile months postpartum.

After a falling into my own postpartum depletion, I realized how important nutrition was for a new mom.

While I have spent the last 10 years specializing in self-care; I am making a full circle back to nutrition. Helping momma’s step into motherhood fully nourished! To prepare her to have a smoother postpartum ride and to create lasting health into her later menopausal years. Rooted in ancient Ayurvedic wisdom - in a modern practical way.

 “I can’t believe how much knowledge I’ve gained around my diet. My (breastmilk) supply has maintained and I’m feeling so nourished, while nursing twins!”

What is Ayurveda & the Sacred Window?

Ayurveda, which means “The Science of Life” in Sanskrit. A 5000-year-old system of natural healing from India.

A holistic focus on achieving balance and harmony in the mind, body and spirit.

It views health as a dynamic balance of three doshas (energetic principles) - Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. Each person has a unique combination of these doshas, which affects their physical and mental characteristics.

By understanding your unique dosha composition, Ayurveda offers personalized guidance on diet, lifestyle, and herbal remedies to promote optimal health and prevent illness.

The postpartum period or the “Sacred Window” is the first 42 days after birth. A crucial time for recovery and rejuvenation. Ayurvedic theory suggests how a woman’s body is treated in the first 42 days after birth, will represent the next 42 years of her life. Suggesting that our postpartum experience will follow us into menopause.

During the Sacred Window, Vata Dosha is elevated. Due to an empty womb. This brings in an excess of the air and ether elements.

We use Dosha balancing principles to reduce Vata Dosha and bring our body back to balance through warm, easily digestible, delicious and nourishing foods.
