You Can’t Control Your Birth Plan; You CAN control Your Postpartum Plan

A new step-by-step holistic blueprint on how to lay a strong foundation as a new mama. 

(Say hello to radiant rest. Well, almost).

For expecting mamas ready to create a stress-free, supportive experience without feeling overwhelmed or isolated.

Picture this: you're excitedly searching online for information about postpartum care, but quickly find yourself overwhelmed by a sea of conflicting advice. 

Websites, forums, and articles all seem to offer different approaches. This course cuts through the noise, giving you a clear, practical roadmap built on the wisdom of Ayurveda and the experience of countless mamas. You'll feel confident and empowered, knowing you have the right tools to navigate this exciting new chapter.

imagine what it would be like…

…waking up (or sneaking in a few catnaps) and feeling prepared because you have a self-care routine that rejuvenates, and a community ready to assist. You take a few cleansing breaths and do a set of affirmations before you get out of bed. The thought of “What am I going to eat?” doesn’t even cross your mind. You don’t need to figure it out because your pantry has delicious, healthy meals that nourish your body, soul, and recovery. 

Like many expecting mothers, I felt confident going into postpartum. I had researched the basics and didn’t need a plan – I’ve got this. But the reality was overwhelming. I wished I had a clear roadmap, a supportive community, and tools specifically designed for postpartum recovery. I dove headfirst into the postpartum world & Ayurveda, found my passion, and knew I had to create this course for you.

Let’s talk FAQS

Is this course right for me if I’m not planning a natural birth?

Yes, the course focuses on postpartum recovery which is relevant regardless of birth type.

I don’t know much about Ayurveda. Will I still understand the course?

Yes, the course offers an introduction to Ayurveda and focuses on practical applications for postpartum healing.

how long does it take to complete the course? 

One hour per week is recommended but can be adjusted to your schedule.

Is there an expiry date to access the course materials?

No, you have lifetime access. 

How does the course address emotional and mental health challenges in postpartum? 

There are specific resources to spot any signs of postpartum depression and hotlines. 

Does this course prevent postpartum depression?

No, this course doesn't prevent postpartum depression, BUT it sets you up to be empowered and creates a foundation that assists in preventing it. 

Here are a few major points:

Reduced Risk of Long-Term Complications: Proper healing during this time can decrease the risk of future health problems like pelvic floor issues or postpartum depression.

Stronger Bond with Baby: When you're well-rested and supported, you'll be better able to bond with your baby and enjoy those precious early moments.

Increased Confidence as a Parent: By prioritizing your own well-being, you'll feel more prepared and confident in caring for your newborn.

Why are the first 42 days important? 

The first 42 days after childbirth, also sometimes referred to as the "golden period" or "fourth trimester," are crucial for several reasons:

Physical Recovery: Your body has undergone a major transformation during pregnancy and childbirth. The first 42 days are a critical time for your body to heal from childbirth injuries, regulate hormones, and shrink your uterus back to its pre-pregnancy size.

Emotional Wellbeing: New parents often experience a rollercoaster of emotions during this time. This period is important for adjusting to parenthood, bonding with your baby, and managing potential postpartum depression or anxiety.

Breastfeeding Establishment: If you plan to breastfeed, the first 42 days are a crucial time for establishing a successful breastfeeding routine. Your milk supply is regulated, and your baby is learning to latch and feed effectively.

Building a Routine: This period is a time to establish healthy sleep patterns for both you and your baby. You'll also figure out feeding schedules, diaper changes, and other newborn care routines.

Building a Support System: The first 42 days can overwhelm new parents. This period is a time to lean on your partner, family, and friends for support with meals, errands, and childcare.
