Episode 40 - Planning a powerful postpartum with Lael Stone

How can you plan the most memorable postpartum period that holds you physically, mentally and emotionally? In this episode, Mel chats with B and parenting expert and TEDx Speaker Lael Stone about powerful early postpartum periods that nurture and nourish new mothers. We explore how to navigate the physical and mental shifts and how a healing and supported early postpartum differs from what many mothers are currently experiencing in modern Western society. We discuss self-care practices, relationships, postpartum emotion, and physical healing to help you plan for and experience the most connected early postpartum period possible. Explore the Holding the Mother course Lael and B mention here: www.motheration.au Find out more about Lael Stone here www.laelstone.com.au  Explore further postpartum support here https://coreandfloor.com.au/pages/postpartum BIG PODCAST CHANGE OCOURS from episode 75 onwards where Mel takes the reins completely and hosts the podcast solo along with an incredible raft of expert guests.  Get more from the Great Birth Rebellion Podcast Join the podcast mailing list to access the resource folder from each episode at www.melaniethemidwife.com  Join the premium podcast members Hub which gives you access to transcripts, additional resources AND the 'ask Mel a question' button so you can submit questions for Mel to answer in the hub.
