Most mamas are told to wait on allergen foods…
but research (and clinical practice) shows the opposite 🤎

Introducing small, warm, cooked forms of dairy, gluten, fish, eggs & nightshades in the first year helps your baby build tolerance, lowering the risk of allergies and intolerances later on.

Think:
✨ a splash of warm milk in congee
✨ soft poached eggs
✨ baked salmon
✨ a tiny bite of warm sourdough
✨ roasted tomato or potato

Breastmilk stays #1 🤱🏼these foods simply help educate your baby’s immune system in a gentle, TCM-aligned way.

The 5 therapeuticFlavours of TCM ☕️
(Save this post for later)

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, every flavour carries a frequency of healing 🍃

The way we eat - the flavours we crave - can tell us what our body is asking for.

✨ Sweet grounds and rebuilds
🌶️ Pungent moves what’s stuck
🍋 Sour soothes the Liver and tones
🧂 Salty nourishes our deepest essence
🍊 Bitter clears heat and calms the heart

+

Each flavour supports a different phase of your cycle, fertility, and motherhood journey:
🌑 Menstruation — Sweet + Salty to restore
🌱 Follicular — Sour to awaken Liver Qi
🌞 Ovulatory — Bitter to cool & harmonize
🍂 Luteal — Pungent to move stagnation

Food becomes medicine.
And your cycle becomes your compass.

🕊️

If you’re ready to reconnect with your body and bring balance to your hormones through acupuncture, herbal medicine, and TCM nutrition, I’d love to support you.

Whether you’re nourishing your body for conception, tending to your pregnancy, or restoring your strength postpartum we’ll use ancient medicine to help your modern body thrive.

For the tired mama who wants to feel nourished again. 🕊️

You don’t need another fad diet, you need real food that loves you back.

Start simple:
🌿 More veggies, fruit, herbs, legumes, nuts & seeds
🍳 A little high-quality meat to complement, not dominate
🥣 Less processed “quick fixes”

As mothers our bodies need warm, balanced, whole foods & in turn, our energy, mood, and milk all flow easier 🤱🏼

Healing isn’t about perfection.
It’s about rhythm, rest, real food 🤎



✨ I’m focusing on quality care over quantity as I weave Functional Medicine into my Acupuncture & TCM practice.

Now seeing patients Mondays 10-2 in Cochrane, AB.

💫 Book through the link in bio.

Why Protein Matters for Mothers + Hormones 🍳

As mothers, our bodies give so much & protein is one of the most important ways we replenish what’s lost.

From a TCM perspective, protein builds Qi and Blood grounding your energy, supporting milk flow, and rebuilding tissues after birth.

From a Functional Medicine lens, it stabilizes blood sugar, supports your adrenals, and gives your body the amino acids it needs to make hormones 🌼

Whether you’re postpartum, perimenopausal, or simply moving through the beautiful chaos of motherhood 🥰🥲🫠🤱🏼 aim for 80–100g/day of high-quality protein (as Dr. Aviva Romm teaches).

🍳 Try starting your mornings with:
• A soft omelette with greens + avocado
• Slow-cooked oats with nut butter, h**p hearts + berries.

❌ to morning smoothies & iced coffee

To nourish your Qi, & feel hormones flowing book an Acupuncture appointment with me (Mondays 10am-2pm)

Isn’t it fascinating?

How our body is always communicating with us…

This is one of the reasons that I love Traditional Chinese Medicine, this medicine taught me to s l o w down and observe my body & my cycle.

When I’m feeling “off” I simply observe, instead of outsourcing support & most often my body is telling me exactly what it needs.

TCM teaches us how to observe & what to look for.

Acupuncture & Herbal Medicine help the body to reestablish balance within, because your body already knows how to heal. Sometimes it just need a little help 🌼😌

When did womanhood become a diagnosis?

Too many of us have been told our bodies are problems to be managed:
🌼Period pain medicated without asking why
🌼Postpartum brushed off as “normal”
🌼Hysterectomies offered before exploring root causes
🌼Hormones silenced with a prescription instead of understood

Journalist Ray Moynihan calls it “disease-mongering” ~ widening illness categories so women become lifelong patients. And as mothers, we’ve carried the brunt of it.

I’ve sat with women who were told their only option was surgery. Who felt invisible in a system that never asked about their sleep, digestion, or stress. Who felt erased.

This is why I love Traditional Chinese Medicine 🍃🪡🌼

Because TCM doesn’t see you as broken. It sees you as whole 🤲🏽

It listens to your cycles, your emotions, your energy, YOUR story & gently restores balance within.

✨ You are not a set of symptoms. You are a whole woman. ✨

That’s the heart of my work & the heart of The Menstrual Course.

💌 Early bird enrolment opens October 6th for one week only.Join me and learn how to live in harmony with your cycle (details in bio).

And if you’re local, book an acupuncture session with me to begin your own journey back to balance 🪡✨
