• Energy restoration: Reviewers who remembered feeling "depleted and exhausted" with previous births emphasised how the soups gave them noticeably more energy during those demanding early weeks, helping them manage night feeds, nappy changes, and sleep deprivation.
• Mental relief: Multiple customers describe how knowing their body was being "properly nourished" removed a huge mental load during a time when they were already overwhelmed, making the soups as valuable for mental wellbeing as physical recovery.

Our soups are not pre-cooked. Each pack contains a measured blend of premium dried herbs. To enjoy the full benefits, the dried herbs need to be simmered at home following our simple preparation instructions.

The result? A fresh, nourishing soup made right in your own kitchen. No preservatives, no additives, just real ingredients and traditional care.

Yes, our soups and teas are designed with breastfeeding mums in mind. They include ingredients traditionally used in Chinese herbal cooking to support nourishment during lactation.

These ingredients have historically been selected to help replenish energy, support general wellbeing and are commonly included in postpartum diets. However, every body is different - we recommend speaking with your healthcare provider if you have specific concerns around breastfeeding or dietary needs.

Yes, our soups and teas are safe to consume after both natural and C-section births. Each blend is made from natural, food-grade herbs and is designed to be gentle and nourishing during your recovery.

However, we recommend omitting rice wine in the soup for at least the first 7–10 days after a C-section. In Traditional Chinese practices, alcohol is considered too stimulating for fresh surgical wounds. You can still enjoy the soup without wine - it won't affect the herbal benefits.

As always, if you have specific medical conditions or are taking medications, please consult your healthcare provider.

Soup

Each soup pack is designed for one day, to complement a balanced diet.

It provides 2 to 3 servings and can be enjoyed throughout the day, ideally split between morning, afternoon and evening.

It’s important to consume the soups in the recommended sequence, one pack per day, to ensure your body receives the right support at the right time

Tip: Gently reheat before each serving to maintain warmth and maximise absorption.

Tea
Most mothers drink 2 to 3 cups daily. Each pack yields approximately 600ml to 1L, suitable for 2 to 4 servings. You may sip it throughout the day, warm or at room temperature.

You can start as early as the day after giving birth, but there’s no need to rush. Many mums begin once they’ve returned home from hospital and settled in.

Whether you start right away or a few days later, you’ll still enjoy the full nourishing benefits of the soups and teas throughout your recovery.

From Customer Reviews

The pack provides built-in variety with different customised recipes for each day, eliminating monotony throughout the month.

• Daily variety: Reviewers specifically praise how the soups are "organised by day with customised packages" that provide different flavors throughout the 30-day period.
• Consistently delicious: Customers describe the soups as "delicious" and "yummy" across the full month, with one stating "she enjoyed the variety and flavour of the soups and teas."
• No repetition fatigue: Zero reviews mention getting tired of the soups, with multiple customers expressing they were "very happy with this package" through completion.
  

The tea is naturally sweet and does not contain added sugar. You may add a slice of ginger for warmth or a small amount of rock sugar if desired, but we recommend keeping additives minimal.

It can be used for both. For a full-body soak, place the sachet in a bathtub filled with hot water and let it steep for 3 minutes before bathing. If you prefer a shower, you can soak the sachet in hot water, then use the infused water with a towel or sponge to gently wipe down the body. It can also be used for foot baths or as a warm compress.

The belief that new mums shouldn’t shower during the first 30 days of confinement comes from traditional practices in ancient China, where the climate was cold and homes had no heating or hot water. Back then, avoiding bathing helped prevent illness from exposure to cold wind and water.

Today, with modern amenities, regular hygiene is not only safe but encouraged. In fact, many TCM practitioners now recommend using warm herbal baths or sponge baths during confinement to support circulation, reduce dampness and promote recovery, as long as care is taken to stay warm and avoid chills afterwards.

Our herbal bath is designed exactly for that purpose: to provide a gentle, warming cleanse that aligns with both tradition and modern wellbeing.

To maintain the freshness and quality of your premium herbal products, please store them with care:

• Keep herbal packs in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place, away from direct sunlight, heat, or humidity
• For best results, you may also store them in the refrigerator
• Avoid exposure to moisture or high temperatures, which may affect the herbs’ potency

The shelf life is up to 1 year.

Soup contains peanuts, tree nuts (walnut), and gluten (barley). All products packed in a facility that also handles milk, egg, soy, sesame, seafood, other tree nuts, and gluten-containing cereals.

All ingredients are clearly listed on each label. While our dried herb packs themselves do not contain dairy, shellfish, or animal products, meat is often added in the soup during cooking but is optional.

Our herbs are sourced from China. China is the primary growing region and global supply hub for traditional Chinese herbs. Many of these botanicals are native to specific Chinese provinces, where they have been cultivated for centuries under specialised growing conditions.

Sourcing directly from China allows us to access herbs from their authentic growing regions, where factors such as climate, soil, and traditional cultivation practices contribute to optimal quality. It also ensures better consistency, traceability, and selection compared with sourcing through secondary distributors or non-native growing regions.

All of our herbs are batch-tested and supplied with a Certificate of Analysis (COA). The COA verifies safety and quality, including testing for heavy metals and microbial levels.

For every herb we import into Australia, the relevant documentation (including the COA) is submitted as part of the import process. Shipments may also be subject to random inspection or testing by Australian authorities to ensure compliance with strict safety standards.
