Description

In this episode, we flip the belief most of us have been unconsciously trained into: that postpartum healing happens because we know “what to do.”

No.

Healing is not about information.

Healing is about regulation.

And regulation is created through ceremony.

Inside this episode, we walk into the deeper truth of postpartum care — not as task, not as checklist, not as performance — but as the blueprint of nervous system safety, identity reintegration, and embodied skill.

We will explore:

• Why the nervous system doesn’t heal through thinking
• Why repetition, slowness, and containment are the real technologies of recovery
• How every traditional postpartum culture used ceremony as the primary intervention
• Why your hands, your presence, and your pacing are the actual medicine
• How Skill as Ceremony transforms technique into transmission

This is the moment where we return to the rituals that heal us; not because they are poetic, but because they are physiologically necessary.

You will leave this episode understanding why ceremony was always the answer… and why without it, postpartum care collapses into depletion, burnout, and chaos.
