Postpartum
care is a necessity,
not a luxury
△ Postpartum is a portal ▽ Postpartum is a rite of passage △ Postpartum is the foundation ▽
For as long as women have been having babies, there have been postpartum care traditions.
These traditions are cross-cultural and exist as common-sense responses to the innate changes that occur within our physiology after birth.
Many of us no longer have mothers, grandmothers or aunties who carry this knowledge and are able to support us in the way that we truly need.
This is where I come in.
I am a part of the global movement of women who are reclaiming and reviving these traditional healing practices, in places where we have become disconnected.
