Description

How can regulating the nervous system during the postpartum period transform the journey for new mothers and families?


In this episode, I dive into the importance of reducing stress and promoting relaxation for new mothers and parents and how this can go a long way to creating a more positive postpartum experience with their new baby.


You will also learn about the vital role of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems as well as finding out practical ways of incorporating the five elements—fire, water, earth, air, and spirit from the Ayurvedic system of yoga, into daily routines to support new parents and their babies. 


Discover how I utilise these holistic approaches in order to help new parents to enjoy a more joyful, connected, and serene postpartum period.
