Tending to Mother: Postpartum Support
​
Birth will decimate you, a death of your past self, and a rebirth into the next chapter of your life.
​
The importance of rest, warmth, touch, & nourishment are vital to your well being during this most scared time, and beyond.
those days, weeks, months after your birthing experience can either feel incredible, or truly, horrific.
How can anyone possibly understand what you're going through?
Having a newborn makes it challenging to get out to see friends and family, or they want to come see your baby, but you're feeling hesitant.
Isolation, and sadness seeps into your new world, as an under supported woman, who needs love, now, more than ever.
You think about the future and struggle to see the light, a sense of helplessness comes over you, this baby is depending on you for absolutely everything.
The night fades into day, you put on your armor and keep going, you really do have so much to be grateful for....
Questions keep coming up in your mind...
How is breastfeeding really going?
Is my baby getting *enough*?
Why do they keep waking up?
How can this be normal? It feels awful.....
Maybe your nipples are sore and you try to google search the answers, but only find ads and don't know who to trust. You discover that navigating postpartum care and resources feels more and more overwhelming.
There's tons of misinformation and with a lack of support, it's very difficult.
It's as if you're ​power struggling through postpartum, in the dark, with a deep sense of sadness, anger, and frustration.
You've heard of postpartum depression, is this it?
You want to feel happiness again, It's pretty obvious that you need genuine support, love and connection.
Just to cry and be held, would bring so much relief.
Could there be something wrong with you?
You're craving someone to just vent to, it would feel so good to share your birth story, and how you're really feeling. You also have some questions for someone who knows women, and who understands birth.
​
On a good day you see yourself walking into motherhood with a deep sense of power, how could you be so lost on the bad days?
Knowing how sacred this journey could be makes you feel lighter and more free, but is it actually possible? The idea of finding community and creating your new path makes your whole body light up with joy.
You see yourself laughing and playing in the sunshine. You're strong, and held up by the sisterhood wisdom, the love and connection you've been craving.
As a Certified Postpartum Practitioner, I've learned from my elders specific healing modalities from throughout the world that will tend to your mind, body & Spirit leaving you with a deepened sense of self, connection back into your body & feeling more in tune with your baby.
Sessions start with a check in, and heart opening. Let's dive deep into the questions you may have about your postpartum experience and talk about everything you're feeling. Allowing what is to be seen and held/ We can discuss the most powerful tools and useful resources that I know. From healing herbal elixirs, postpartum baths, womb steaming, nourishment & gentle intentional healing touch, we find a regime that works for divine, YOU.
