Zuò Yuè Zi · The Sitting Month
Warming the empty spaces
In Traditional Chinese Medicine the postpartum period is a fragile threshold. Warmth — in steaming bowls, simmered herbs, and protective rest — rekindles the body’s Qi and rebuilds the Blood given to new life.
In the tradition
- Long-simmered bone broths
- Ginger & red date teas
- Absolute rest
- Turning away from cold
