Best Postpartum Practices
Here are some evidence-based ideas that will support healing, mentally and physically, during this most delicate of times:
Honor the Rhythm of the Sun:
Step outside each day, especially at sunrise and sunset, to connect with the earth beneath your feet. This simple grounding practice supports healing, hormone balance, and energy flow.Soften the Light:
After sunset, keep overhead lights off and use soft, low lamps or red light when possible. Red light is gentle on circadian rhythms and especially helpful during middle-of-the-night feedings, for both baby’s sleep and mama’s recovery.Fuel Your Healing Body:
Prioritize nourishing meals rich in healthy fats and protein. Stay well hydrated with water and trace mineral electrolytes to support tissue repair, balanced energy, and healthy digestion.
