PREGNANCY & POSTPARTUM TENDING
“How women are tended to in the first 40 days determines the next 40 years…”
The old words echo through time:
Every ancient culture held Mothers as the Center of the tribe. Within these ancient people groups a common thread was woven that is traceable throughout all heritages: their deeply rooted devotion in tending to Mothers throughout pregnancy & postpartum.
Each culture had intentional ceremony & specific care centered around supporting a Mother’s body, mind & spirit as she crossed the threshold of maidenhood to motherhood, then onward into the realm of postpartum.
Though many cultures have had these ways of tending all but erased through colonization & patriarchal establishments that don’t honour Mothers or live in harmony with the cycles of Women & the earth,
the old ways have not been forgotten.
It's time for us to remember this way of caring for one another again like our foremothers did.
Alignment is absolutely foundational to how a woman walks in this life-through her heart, mind, body & soul. Women have known this since the dawn of time, walking the spirals of initiation through maidenhood, to womanhood, into motherhood.
Traditional pregnancy & postpartum tending is rooted within nourishing & bolstering the magnificent bodies of women, calling in realignment & creating capacity, sustainability & postural soundness.
This is preventative work, also, enabling women to walk through their many seasons as a woman without long term imbalances such as diastasis recti, prolapse, pelvic pain, loss of sensation, incontinence, pelvic surgeries & challenging birth outcomes.
