A Community Coverstation: The Ayurvedic Approach to Pregnancy + Postpartum.

Please join Birth SmarterBaby Caravan, LLC and Mary A Whitlock for a conversation on The Ayurvedic Approach to Pregnancy + Postpartum.

Pregnancy is a transformative time in a woman's life; it's a time of growth and transition. Learn how the ancient holistic practice of Ayurveda honors this process by nurturing maternal and infant development.

Mary will discuss the different ways she integrates Ayurveda into her practice as a doula. She will also talk about the importance of easing the mother's load by reducing internal and external stresses so that she and her developing baby can experience more harmonious cyclical changes and also have a gentler recovery and healing time postpartum.

This event is a part of #communityconversations hosted by Birth Smarter and Baby Caravan, LLC. It is free and open to all Birth Workers as well as pre and postnatal families.

In this class, you will be presented with an overview and background on the holistic practice of Ayurveda, including history, philosophy, and different branches.
