We root our work in ancestral knowledge to build thriving communities through food, birthing, and collective preparedness.
Welcome to Sankofa Wellness
We’re so glad you’re here. Sankofa Wellness is a community-rooted initiative focused on reclaiming ancestral healing through food justice, birthing justice, and community preparedness. Take a moment to explore our pages, learn more about our mission, and reach out if you’re ready to connect, collaborate, or build with us.
At Sankofa Wellness, we believe that healing begins when we slow down and turn inward—when we pause long enough to ask: What have we carried with us, and what are we ready to lay down? This blog is a space for that kind of reflection. A space to remember. To learn. To grow. And most of all, to reconnect—with ourselves, with each other, and with the wisdom of those who came before us.
The name Sankofa reminds us that we must go back and reclaim what we’ve forgotten or left behind in order to move forward. That philosophy grounds everything we share here—from wellness practices and birthing support, to food justice and community care. These are not separate threads; they’re braided together through ancestral memory, deep love, and the work of liberation.
On this blog, you’ll find reflections on:
- Birthing Justice: stories, resources, and reflections on the journey of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum—honoring both traditional and community-based paths
- Community Wellness: mind-body practices, healing modalities, and movement partnerships rooted in collective care
- Food and Land: lessons from the soil, recipes, and reflections from the intersection of farming and urban living
- Personal Storytelling: journal-style entries that speak honestly about navigating motherhood, change, grief, joy, and rest
- Community Preparedness: guidance and inspiration for becoming more rooted, resourced, and ready—in good times and hard ones
