🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡

Still can’t believe the energy at the UBBLS Conference ✨ and now, as we wrap up Black Breastfeeding Week, one message still rings loud: “Collaboration over competition.” 🌹❤️🤎

Because when it comes to Black lactation, it’s never been about shining alone, it’s about building, uplifting, and thriving together for our mamas, our babies, and our community.

The summer season has been filled with deepeing my connection to land while in a farming apprenceship but this fall I'm calling in more ceremony and birth work.

If you have recently given birth, regardless of the birth outcome, I would be honored to hold you in ceremony.

This was passed down to me through oral tradition from my grandma and I'm grateful to share it with community.

This can also be transformation for those who are closing their childbearing years and for those entering their wisdom years (menopause).

Truly this sealing ceremony is meant to hold those in deep transition so if you're in a space where you are being called to ceremony I encourage you to reach out and see if this would be right for you.

After some conversation and once you're sure you're ready to be held in ceremony I will mix your one of a kind herbal blends. These will be crafted for you individually based on what you share with me and what comes to me intuitively. The blends I will create are as follows: a pelvic steam blend, a tea, and a ceremonial herbal bath.

To know all of what is included in this ceremony please reach out either here or by email tierrashealinghomestead@gmail.com

This is probably my most favorite thing I do in community.....I like all the things I do and have crafted a life that I love....deeply.

But when I get to carry my grandma with me (literally there's a picture of her in my basket) I feel more whole, I feel nourished and fed by being able to share this ceremony. I love speaking her name and remembering the sound of her voice as she shared these traditions with me.

The Postpartum Sealing Ceremony is such a lovely way to tend to those who have carried life in their womb whether that life is a few weeks old, a few years old, or decades old....even if that life returned to the spirit world before they were able to be held in this realm this ceremony is not about a specific time in one's life as much as it's about accessing the medicine within.

I'm grateful my dear friend Kaye has welcomed me in to share this ceremony with clients and friends. We are all deeply in need of ceremony, of a remembrance of the traditions we held before coming here and losing the sacred ritual and ceremony that held our mamas and birthing people.

I feel fortunate that I get to hold this ceremony and share it in this season of my life.

I have been busy making placenta and umbilical art lately! I love honoring the tree of life in this way! Today my friend Talyce and I had a lot of fun mixing Earthwork and Birthwork! If you'd like a beautiful keepsake like a unique one of a kind keepsake to honor the journey you and your baby have been on I got you!

PSA on Covid-19 and pregnancy. Be aware some hospitals will be looking to separate positive birthers from their babies. This is NOT what the World Health Organization or RCOG (UK) recommends at all. Based on all reviewed cases mild symptoms for pregnant persons and newborns have only been reported. For some reason CDC has recommended immediate separation at birth for two weeks, without any evidence. Each hospital makes their own decisions. I know Landmark in Woonsocket, RI is using the RCOG and WHO recommendations to keep them together, others hospitals in the US are following the CDC rules. There was a positive mother who birthed in MA and they took her baby away and isolated her for two weeks. You must advocate now and hard if you decided the WHO and RCOG recommendations are what you feel is best for you. Here are all the recommendations (scroll down) you can take to your provider and hospital.

Birthing people planning for your postpartum is more important than ever now...build your nest!

So much about postpartum is the same during this pandemic, and yet, there are some very specific things that are different. We still need to fully recovery from birth. We still need to bond with our babies. And we still need rest, support, and care to make this happen. We still need to plan for what...
