Collection: Functional Perfume ~ Sugandhi Dravya

An intentional collection of precious olfactory rituals, hand-compounded to steady the maternal nervous system.

Drawing upon the advanced Vedic science of Sugandhi Dravya, these rare botanical drops are crafted to soothe the nasal pathway (Ghranendriya) where breath meets awareness. Free from synthetic fixatives, fillers, or blending agents, each formula is hand-blended upon purchase using pristine wild-crafted botanicals. Serving as a dedicated sensory anchor to ground your internal rhythm throughout your unique passage of matrescence.

What is the Kitchen Sādhana?

Like Yoga, a ritual of daily chanting, or tending to your altar, the Kitchen Sādhana, originally introduced to me through the work of Mother Maya Tiwari, is a sacred practice of connecting to the food that will become a part of you upon digestion, and preparing it with ritual and reverence.

Kitchen Sādhana is a continuous daily current of medicinal nourishment for the mother. I cook them in energetic alignment and with ritual, from my family kitchen - so I essentially do the 'Sadhana' for you until you are ready to return to yours.

How I cook? The churnas, biodynamic botanical elements, culinary herb selection and the principles of postnatal nutrition are all rooted in Āyurveda. The dishes themselves, however, are an extension of who I am as a practitioner. Experimental, with research on nutritional psychiatry in mind, and non-conventional. So less like grandma's kitchen, and more like an apothecary of culinary medicine.

I can not wait to fill your plates! Love, Deborah Rose
