The word “postpartum” in modern day society is now synonymous with depression. And the standard postpartum experience for most new moms today is certainly a depressing scene.
The average woman is, at most, prepared with some postpartum pads and baby gear. Her support system may include a few relatives coming over to visit, not to actually tend to her needs, but to hold the baby and completely interrupt the flow and bond between mother-baby.
She may spend a few days in bed with her baby before jumping back into all of the normal day-to-day activities, completely ignoring her body’s need for deep rest. She’s not told anything about the immense changes that have taken place on literally every level - from the physical to the emotional, mental and spiritual.
At 6 weeks postpartum, she’s given a nod from her doctor or midwife to start to exercise and have sex again and that is the extent of “postpartum care” in most women’s modern day life.
Depressing is an understatement.
This lack of care and reverence for the postpartum period in this common scenario leads to depression, depletion, pelvic floor issues, and a spiritual disconnect that manifests as low confidence in motherhood and all areas of the woman’s life. We don’t want this to be your experience. And it doesn't have to be!
Did you know that just like birth, the postpartum period also has a physiological blueprint?
Clues of this blueprint have been left behind for us in all ancient cultures throughout the entire world. These ancient cultures tell us that the fourth trimester is a “golden opportunity” where women can restore, heal, transform and actually feel rejuvenated at the deepest level if this physiological design is respected and honored.
