Wellbeing Tips For Pregnancy and Early Motherhood
Pregnancy diet and nourishment note
As miraculous and joyful as pregnancy and early motherhood can be, it’s also a phase that brings many physical, mental and emotional changes that may be challenging to navigate. So, whether you’re looking to conceive, are pregnant or in a postpartum bubble, we’re here to share some simple, practical ways that natural remedies can help nurture your individual needs and complement your journey wherever you are.
Pregnancy vitamins and supplements
At all ages and stages, a nourishing, balanced diet should provide you with the nutrients, vitamins and minerals needed for your body’s natural development and to maintain overall good health.
There are times, though, when you may want added support, like in pregnancy, when hormones and energy levels are changing and your body’s accommodating space to grow, birth and feed a baby. The good news is that plenty of things can help, as well as easy ways to incorporate them into your everyday.
Pregnancy self-care
While your body shapeshifts, when skin feels tugged and pulled, or if you’re feeling a little off-kilter, self-care habits can be a force of good to enhance your overall wellbeing. Something as simple as a relaxing bath to ease weary limbs or a bedtime routine to help you settle for sleep can make harder days more manageable and good days even better.
That’s why we created our Mother’s Collection, a beautiful range of expertly made natural products to condition skin and calm the mind during pregnancy and beyond.
Our bestselling Mother’s Balm is a daily go-to for mums and mums-to-be. Perfect for sensitive skin, this certified organic, fragrance-free formula is blended with nourishing plant oils and beeswax to soothe the skin and help reduce the appearance of stretch marks.
For the ultimate moment of me-time, soak the day away with our beautifully aromatic Mother’s Bath Oil. Infused with uplifting organic bergamot, ylang ylang and lavender essential oils, this nurturing blend works to replenish the skin and relax the mind.
There’s something to be said about the healing power of touch. Cue our 100% organic Mother’s Massage Oil: a skin-nourishing blend infused with relaxing neroli, uplifting mandarin, sweet almond and vitamin E-rich wheatgerm to relax body and mind and help you indulge in a bit of self-love.
Pregnancy massage & therapies
Many holistic therapies can provide the perfect complement to your pregnancy and post-partum journey. Our Therapy Rooms offer an oasis of pampering and calm enjoyed regularly and as a luxurious treat. There, you’ll discover treatments, including:
- Pre Natal Massage, which uses gentle massage techniques to help release muscular tension that may help relieve physical discomfort and fatigue
- Post Natal Massage focuses on strengthening the muscles and tissues that have been altered during your pregnancy, so that your body regains its strength naturally.
- Women Balance Body massage, a full-body treatment focuses on a fusion of the Lomi Lomi technique and double-handed effleurage strokes to relax and rebalance the nervous and endocrine systems
