Today I speak to Zoe, whose choices and preparations for her slow postpartum with her second baby Jack left a lasting impression on me.
Zoe is a local Shiatsu practitioner/massage therapist & friend from Devon, UK. During out chat she shares her experiences of postpartum with both of her babies and reflects on her overall mothering journey through the lens of her knowledge of traditional Chinese & Ayurvedic medicine.
I hope you will find inspiration from this conversation and the thoughtful choices Zoe made for her well-being and that of her family. What we spoke about: * The importance of bodywork during postpartum. * Preparing for postpartum with insights from "The Golden Month" by Jenny Allison. * The physical healing process and the significance of optimal nutrition. * The interdependence of community support during postpartum. * Recognizing the importance of vulnerability in postpartum. * Shifting cultural narratives around postpartum challenges. * The significance of planning for postpartum care.
*Recommendations for meal trains and seeking community support. * Insights from Chinese medicine on the three gateways: menstruation, birth, and menopause. * Recognizing the impact of postpartum care on long-term health.
