I feel the weight of all that has *almost* been lost...its a heavy blessing to be the one in the family to remember. To keep the old garlic press. Do things differently. Reclaim the ways that were violently forced out.

I believe the way into the Mashiac era is to bring the vast wisdom of the past forward with us. The best remedies are often the simplest ones. Answers lie within. We can choose to tune in.

Bad energy, germs, disease, negative vibes, evil eye, ayin hara- these are all different terms for the same entity which causes us ailments/dis-ease. For optimal wellness we should have a balanced approach-there are many different kinds of medicine and each have their place. Laughter, sunshine, healthy boundaries, herbs, pharma- each a gift from Hashem.
🌿🧿
This is the energy I am bringing into my upcoming workshop- the second cohort of Preparing for the Postpartum: An Ancestral Hebrew Perspective. Its grounding to learn about how our ancestors honored this time, but its also important to talk about how we can practically bring that into our postpartums. How can we have healthy boundaries and assert them with well-meaning/overbearing family members? How can we allocate funds to pay for cleaning help AND traditional postpartum care?
🌿🧿
My intention isnt to tell you what to do, rather to share ideas so that you (your client, partner, loved one) can plan (as much as possible) for the peaceful, restful, restorative postpartum that you deserve. I was reminded by (go check out her offerings!) recently that when the postpartum woman/person is at the center, the baby thrives. You deserve to be at the center during this enormous life transition. An affirmation I still say to myself.
