Naturopathic & Ayurvedic Postpartum Care - Honour Her Birth Services

Ayurvedic Postpartum Care

“Everyone wants to hold the baby but who will hold the new mother?”

~ Jabina Coleman

Postpartum is a profoundly vulnerable yet powerful time of transition as you step into the sacred role of motherhood. It is a delicate period where your body is as fragile as your newborn, your heart is wide open, and your emotions are raw and exposed.

Now is the crucial time for healing – both physically from the marathon of labor and birth, and emotionally as you navigate this transformative phase. It is a sacred window, your birth right, to be held, nourished, and replenished.

The ancient wisdom of Ayurveda and the Wise Women Tradition offers a nurturing path forward. This holistic approach guides you through the four pillars of postpartum care, providing an essential foundation for your health and rejuvenation during this new chapter of motherhood.

Ayurvedic Postpartum Care

As your postnatal doula I can support you with baby care, feeding, light housework, and looking after your baby so you can rest or have a shower. You can opt for this as a stand alone service or add on the beautiful offering below.

Your Natural Balance

Maintaining your inner balance the natural way has never mattered more than right now. You have demands placed on you that few out there will ever understand, which is why we need to reconnect your body with the natural world as soon as possible. With a combination of Western and Ayurvedic herbs and nutritional supplements that support lactation and postpartum recovery, we’ll craft a personal care package that’s all about rebalancing and realigning the inner you. I can even add in other natural remedies as your journey unfolds so you always stay on the path you so richly deserve.

Your Release

You deserve the chance to release your inner tension, repair your frayed nerves and make a little more time for you. I know how it feels to suddenly be thrust into a space where you feel like you can’t let yourself go and be free, which is why I now offer Ayurvedic head, shoulder and foot massage within my postnatal doula services. This is your personal release that lets you escape the here and now for a moment and recapture balance in your life.

I can also reach out and help you release with help from:

Traditional Belly Binding
Bespoke herbal Baths or Sitz Baths
Self-Abhyanga (massage)

Your Nourishment

There’s always lots of focus on prenatal nutrition, but what we eat after delivery helps us muster up the energy for the weeks of sleepless nights ahead. Caring for a newborn, physical recovery, and breastfeeding are not things you can do without the right energy in your mind and body.

This is why all of my postpartum packages include a carefully selected menu created to help replenish your energy levels the natural way. They’ll create balance and avoid postnatal depletion in body and mind, giving you have the flexibility you need. Whether you want one nourishing home cooked meal a day, or all three meals for the day, it’s always up to you. Snacks and drinks are provided too so you never have to worry about a thing.

Your Mental wellbeing

Your body is recovering from one of the biggest challenges it will ever face, and you’re also faced with a precious new life who demands more from you than anyone told you about. Your hormones, energy levels and bodily cycles are all out of synch with one another as you pray for sleep. The thing that keeps you going is your mental wellbeing and sense of inner purpose. I know it’s easier said than done, which is why I offer exclusive options that make sure you always have someone to turn to when you need to.

Your typical day

Following our initial discovery call I we will schedule a face to face in-house consultation where we will go through step-by-step you and your families needs and requirements. Based on this I will intuitively prepare a bespoke postpartum offering that matches your requirements. Your typical day could look like something like below.

Each 3 hour visit may include:

~ Daily check-in and assessment of you and baby’s wellbeing including appetite, digestion, elimination, rest and mood

~ Freshly prepared nutritious postpartum meals or snack (1 per visit)

~ Traditional belly binding to help you support your core and feel held from the outside in

~ Time to relax & reflect be it soaking in a herbal baths or quiet time for guided mediation
