Why Every New Mama Deserves Ayurvedic Postpartum Care

You just gave birth to a whole universe—your body, your heart, your energy all shifted.

In the Ayurvedic tradition, the first 42 days after birth shape the next 42 years of a woman’s life. That’s how vital postpartum care is.

What Makes Ayurvedic Postpartum Care So Transformational?

  • Holistic Healing: Focuses on rest, rejuvenation, digestion, emotional well-being, and spiritual integration.

  • Daily Rituals: Abhyanga, herbal sitz baths, warm nourishing meals, and space to be cared for.

  • Vata Rebalancing: After birth, the body is vulnerable and dry—Ayurveda brings grounding, warmth, and strength.

  • Customized Support: No one-size-fits-all—care is attuned to your unique dosha, birth experience, and rhythm.

  • Mama as Sacred: You are honored, not just as a new mother, but as the center of your family's universe.

What I Offer as Your Ayurvedic Postpartum Doula:

  • Daily warm meals like kitchari, stewed fruits, and spiced broths

  • Herbal oil massage (abhyanga) to rebuild and re-center

  • Sacred space for emotional integration

  • Herbal teas, yoni steams, herbal baths and belly binding

Ayurvedic postpartum care is a reclamation of what has been lost in modern birth culture: the sacred tending of the mother.

You deserve to be nourished, adored, and restored. Because when the mother is held—the whole world heals.
