Class Details
Planning For the Fourth Trimester is based on the most impactful training I have done- INNATE Postpartum Care training. My mentor, Rachelle Garcia Seliga created this class to be taught by INNATE Postpartum Care Practitioners in their respective communities to further the cultural shift that is her life’s work. The class will interweave time-tested postpartum wisdom with modern science. The focus on the postpartum time is intended to revive the honor and dignity of mothers as the center of a community, which revives family health and community health in turn.
In our culture, postpartum care is not happening and mothers are suffering. Postpartum care across all traditional cultures looks the same because we have the same physiology. We just have to relearn and remember this wisdom. The information is rooted in honoring our physiology- what the postpartum body truly needs to recover and heal.
There are 4 classes, each 2 hrs long and then a 5th class scheduled when all are at least 6 weeks postpartum. We come back together along with our babies and complete the rite of passage with community celebration and witnessing.
Some of the things you’ll learn:
- How to use these principles to IMPROVE your health and prevent depletion
- What is common but NOT normal in the postpartum time
- Why postpartum mood disorders have more to do with community, and little to do with a biochemical/hormonal imbalance that needs to be fixed with medication
- What it looks like to REST: taking the subjective out of this idea (and what your uterus has to say about it)
- Why everything is about warmth in postpartum healing and care
- What foods promote healing and replenishment and what foods do NOT
- Appropriate types of bodywork and treatments
- How to harness your community support in order to thrive, not just SURVIVE
