3 Stages of Recovery

The traditional framework trusted for postpartum recovery

  • Stage 1: Release & Repair (清,催)

    The first days after birth are about gentle recovery. This stage focuses on clearing lochia, supporting uterine repair and encouraging milk flow. Warmth and nourishment help your body begin its path back to balance.

    Assorted dried herbs on a plate with a package of tea on a brown surface

  • Stage 2: Regulate & Rebalance (调)

    As your body stabilises, the focus shifts to harmonising digestion and improving nutrient absorption. This stage helps replenish Qi and blood while restoring steady energy through balanced nourishment.

    Dried fruits and nuts on a plate with a package of Golden Month tea on a brown surface.

  • Stage 3: Rebuild & Revitalise (补,养)

    The final stage consolidates vitality for the long term. By nourishing the liver and kidneys, improving circulation and building reserves, this phase supports deeper renewal and lasting recovery.

The Traditional Approach to Lactation

  • In traditional Chinese theory, breast milk is formed from blood and body fluids, and its flow is influenced by energy (qi), warmth, digestion and circulation.

    Tea set with a teapot, cup, and snacks on a table.

  • Red dates and longan are traditionally used to help nourish blood and body fluids. In some blends, small amounts of fenugreek, long used in Western herbal traditions, are included for its galactagogue qualities

  • Rather than forcing milk production, these natural blends are traditionally consumed to help the body transition smoothly into lactation.

First-Time or Seasoned Mums

Whether you’re navigating recovery for the first time or caring for little ones alongside a new baby, our soups take the guesswork out of confinement and provide consistent, nourishing support.

Why Confinement Care Matters

In many Asian cultures, the month after childbirth is known as “confinement” (zuò yuè zi, “sitting the month”), a sacred window of rest, warmth, and deeply nourishing food to support recovery and renewal.

Childbirth leaves the body open, depleted, and vulnerable, yet uniquely receptive to restoration. The way a mother is cared for in the first 30 days is believed to influence her wellbeing for years to come.
