I was going to post about my new tea blend-how cozy it tastes and how perfectly it fits into fall but I made a promise to myself to start showing up more authentically here. There’s a story behind this tea, behind The Mama Root, that I don’t share often.

My pregnancy and birth were simple, even ideal. I had a supportive team and a body that did everything I hoped it would. Postpartum was another story. I had no idea what I was doing and breastfeeding absolutely terrified me. I dealt with frequent clogged ducts, D-MER, postpartum depression and anxiety. I cried. A lot. I found myself saying things like “this is the last feed” and “I don’t think I can do this anymore.”

Breastfeeding mattered to me so deeply, but it was also breaking me down. I spent so many nights awake, googling the why’s and how’s, desperately seeking answers and wondering if I was doing the right thing for my baby. I tried to eat the right foods, take the right supplements, hold him in the right position, do enough skin-to-skin. It was so much. I thought, “Shouldn’t this be easier? Or is it easy and I’m just NOT getting it?”

Somehow, we found our way through and I’m so glad we did.

You don’t need this tea to be enough-you already are. But if you ever want a moment of warmth, something to hold while you hold it all together, it’s here for you. 🌿🫶🏼🌿

Happy World Breastfeeding Week, mamas! 💕🍼
Whether you’re nursing, pumping, or just starting your journey- your body deserves some serious love. 💫 Here are 3 holistic tips to support your supply and keep those clogs away:

1️⃣ Book a postpartum lymphatic drainage + breast massage
 Gentle bodywork supports circulation + lymph flow, helping clear stagnation and encourage milk to move more freely. It’s not just relaxing- it’s preventative care. 🙌

2️⃣ Swap dry brushing for Garshana silk gloves
 Silk gloves are a gentler Ayurvedic option, especially postpartum. They help stimulate lymph flow without the scratchy irritation- perfect for sensitive skin. ✨

3️⃣ Sip your daily cup of Liquid Gold Lactation Support Tea 🍵
 Our new lactation support blend is designed to nourish, hydrate, and support steady milk production while helping baby’s digestion-a comforting, effective way to give back to your hardworking body. (Bonus: it’s delicious.)

🌿 I’ll be diving deeper into each of these tips over the next few days with a little surprise at the end of the week- so stay tuned!

The Mama Root is turning 3! 🎉
Three years ago, I opened the doors to The Mama Root with a big vision and a tiny space. Since then, this little seed of an idea has bloomed in ways I could have never imagined-and it’s all thanks to you. 🌿🫶🏼🌿

As we celebrate this milestone, I wanted to share a few reflections:

🌟 3 Big Wins
• We moved into a bigger, brighter space to better support your growing families.
• We launched The Mama Root’s very own tea blends (and there’s more to come!)
• I became a Spinning Babies® Aware Practitioner, deepening the bodywork support I can offer during pregnancy and birth prep.

🧠 3 Takeaways from the Journey
• Self-care is community care: I’ve learned that utilizing the beautiful community I surround myself with for my own care has been a big part in providing YOU all with a service that is joyful, heartfelt and present. Thank you for holding, mentoring and healing me this past year- .katiesakamoto
• Never stop learning: Instead of worrying when things slow down, I’ve found that leaning into these seasons with education and creation is a wonderful refresh for my mind and opportunity to bring on exciting new offerings.
• Don’t let the little things pile up-especially laundry!: Enough said 😉

💛 3 Favorite Moments
• Clients switching from fertility massages to pregnancy sessions- always such a joy to celebrate with you!
• Watching cesarean scar tissue remediation clients reclaim their bodies and go on to have beautiful VBAC births.
• Welcoming back loyal clients for baby number two (or three!). It’s an honor to be part of your journey again and again.

🌱 3 New Offerings Coming Soon!
• A nourishing lactation tea blend, crafted with care.
• Infant massage classes to support bonding and baby wellness.
• Breech body balancing sessions, designed to gently encourage optimal fetal positioning.

I’m so grateful for every story, every session, and every step we’ve taken together. And I’m excited to keep growing with you.

🎁 As a thank you…
I’ll be giving away a 60-minute studio session! To enter- (Continued in Comments)
