Root & Bloom: Matrescence - Becoming a mother

Matrescence is the emotional and identity shift of becoming a mother. Join our Root & Bloom session for gentle, compassionate support.

🌿 Root & Bloom: Understanding Matrescence 🌸

Becoming a mother is a profound life transition. It reshapes not only your body, but also your emotions, identity and relationships. This often-overlooked transformation has a name: matrescence.

Root & Bloom's opening session - Matrescence - is a gentle, supportive session designed to help you understand this season of change and feel more held within it. Together, we’ll explore what matrescence really is, why it can feel so overwhelming at times, and how to support yourself with greater compassion, understanding and less pressure.

All sessions offer:
✨ Calm, grounding practices to support your nervous system
✨ Evidence-informed insight into the emotional journey of motherhood
✨ Space to reflect and share (only if you feel comfortable)
✨ Practical tools to take away and use in daily life
✨ Connection with other women navigating motherhood
