Burnout is real, hormones can be frustrating, and we often forget to prioritise ourselves while rushing through life. Nurture Blend is your reminder to take care of yourself.
Nurture Blend can help relax and calm your mind and body, preparing you for childbirth. It pairs wonderfully with hypnobirthing practices. (Starting from 37 weeks into your pregnancy)
10ml
Inhale the magic: Place a single drop onto your palm, then rub your hands together and breathe in. By inhaling, essential oils engage with the limbic system, the emotional centre of the brain, triggering emotional responses, enhancing memory, and promoting overall well-being.
Have this blend with you during your labour, and use it to help you focus through each contraction. Also, amazing after your baby has arrived, to help balance your hormones.
Self-care: Add 5-7 drops to a warm bath. when you are in need of some nurturing and as the blend disperses in the steam, it not only fills the air with its soothing aroma but also allows you to absorb its beneficial properties.
Add a couple of drops to a warm face cloth after your shower, place the cloth over your face, inhale the oils then wipe over your body.
Diffuse: Use this blend in a diffuser to softly scent your space and support the mood you want to create.
The Story Behind The Scent:
Nurture (formally Birthing Blend) was one of the earliest blends created for myself when I was pregnant with my second child Luna in 2015. I wanted a blend for women to use at the end of their pregnancy, from 37 weeks, to help them feel calmer and more relaxed with the run-up to their due date. This blend contains Clary Sage which is amazing for helping to increase your levels of the hormone oxytocin – which is a hormone that, at the right levels, also stimulates your uterine muscles which can then increase contractions.
I used this blend alongside practising hypnobirthing, so when used during my labours with Luna and also Juno in 2018, the scent of this blend triggered the relaxing feelings I felt during the meditations I had practised. It will also help after the baby has arrived The oils chosen in this blend have also been created to help give you a bit of calm when you're a new mum, tired and hormonal... it's a welcome scent during a wonderful but crazy time.
I now use this scent daily because I love the scent and it helps with my perimenopause symptoms.

I used this recently when attending a birth. My client was very sensitive to smells during labour, so I packed my diffuser away and popped a few drops of this onto one of my aromatherapy necklaces. I definitely benefitted from the calming nature of the oils and it certainly helped me as I birthed my own dreams :) An awesome blend (and not too clary-sagey, for those like me who dislike it! Probably a stark reminder of my own labours!!!!) Thank you for such a user-friendly blend x
I used the blend in my diffuser and in the bath from 37 weeks pregnant. It was a lovely smell to fill the house with! I had planned on using it during labour but couldnt stand any smells so didnt in the end. It arrived quickly and was well packaged. Would make a nice baby shower gift!
I found the birthing blend speeded up the process of birth yet created a sense of calm within. It gave an aromatic scent to the air whilst I was in the hospital which made it feel less clinical. I would definitely use it again!
I bought this along with the diffuser and I cannot recommend them both highly enough!I used the birthing blend in 2015 with my second born during a home birth and it made the whole experience all the more magical. The gorgeous scent instantly sends me into a state of relaxation and is also great to add to a carrier oil for massages.Plan on using again for my 3rd little one due in October 2021! Thankyou so much Sally-Anne!
I love this blend, really balancing and nurturing just as the name suggests, it's now my go to blend for peri-menopause symptoms (I love savasanna and calm my mind also).
