Support Aromas for Moms by Moms
Mama Café × HIKOBAYU limited collaboration
Sawada Kayoko of HIKOBAYU has made a connection with Ishida Katsunori, who runs Mama Cafés all over Japan, and the collaboration has come to fruition.
Based on the concept of "For the smiles of you and your loved ones. Supportive aromas for moms, by moms," the scents were adjusted based on the opinions of Mama Café participants and fellow moms, and three scents that will be of support to moms were created.
To celebrate the Mama Café collaboration, we are giving away a voice message from Professor Ishida as a special gift with every purchase!
Each scent is limited to 300 pieces.

MOM STORY
This collaboration began when HIKOBAYU's Sawada Kayoko met Professor Ishida Katsunori, who runs Mama Café.
Sawada Kayoko has a 5-year-old boy and a 3-year-old girl, and is currently raising them. Since her family lives far away in Honshu, she lives with her husband.
In between my busy schedules, I make it a habit to listen to Ishida Sensei's Voicy channel, "Mama Cafe Radio." Ishida Sensei is sympathetic to mothers' feelings, but also understands the child's position, and provides individual consultations every day from a neutral perspective. (Currently ranked #1 in parenting.)
In addition, Professor Ishida has written books and articles for Tokyo Keizai Online and other publications. Among his more than 30 books, in his book "The Seven Principles for Raising Children" (published by Yamato Shobo) , which he calls his "bible, " he writes the following about parents satisfying their own hearts:
- Parents should think about satisfying their own hearts -
The means to achieve this are 1. Food, 2. Books, 3. People, 4. Places, 5. Music and 6. Scents, and they help transform your mind through the five senses.
-Quoted from "Seven Principles for Raising Children" by Katsunori Ishida-
This fragrance aspect linked with HIKOBAYU and led to the development of MOM products.
As women's roles increase, they tend to prioritize others and put themselves last. While searching for what they should be as a wife and mother, they tend to forget what they like and how they spend their time... I'm sure you can all relate to this.
But in fact, the most important thing when raising children is for the parents themselves to first fulfill their own hearts. Like a champagne tower, by fulfilling yourself first, you can share your happiness with those around you.
Regulating the autonomic nervous system through scent and breathing
Research has revealed that scents (aromatic molecules) connect directly to the brain, reach the hypothalamus and pituitary gland, and cause physiological changes in the autonomic nervous system and hormone secretion. Furthermore, when you smell a scent, you inevitably inhale air through your nose. In other words, it is mediated by breathing. This "breathing" is the only part of the body that allows you to consciously control the autonomic nervous system. For these reasons, scents and breathing can help regulate the autonomic nervous system.
