About us
Welcome to Matressa. We are an online store based in Towson, MD, dedicated to providing a seamless shopping experience for all your Matressa gift needs. This website (and book) were inspired by a son's grief over the loss of his mother, which was intensified by the coincidental alignment of his mother's burial with his birthday. The son's memories of his mother and the ritual they shared on his birthday provide a platform over which the reader can explore the anthropological phenomenon of a woman's transition into motherhood known as Matrrescence (or Matressa as he coined it in his book). The products and services on this site are designed to celebrate a woman’s Journey and emergence into motherhood.
