Ayurveda for MOTHERHOOD Program
In modern times we have lost the ancient art of caring for newborn mothers. As a result we now have unacceptable high rates of postnatal depression and anxiety with many mothers feeling isolated and alone during what is meant to be a sacred time and rite of passage.
In traditional cultures around the world, postpartum care and nurturing new mothers is considered to be essential to the fabric of the community. They understand that when a mother is cared for then she is better equipped to care for her family and therefore all of society benefits from the care of the mother.
''A new mother should be treated with oil massage, warm baths, a specific diet and herbal drinks that prevent infection, promote vitality and alleviate vata'' - Charaka Samita (Ancient Indian Text)
The Ayurvedic texts describe the four pillars of postpartum care with great detail and practical tools for helping mothers to heal and recover from childbirth including postpartum diet, herbal medicine and bodywork for supporting the mother through the first 40 days and beyond.
