In a culture that worships productivity, slowing down is revolutionary. It can be especially hard to ease into the necessary slow pace of postpartum, when the messaging all around us says rush forward, toward getting on a feeding schedule, or getting our bodies back, or getting a full night of sleep. In this rushing, we neglect to listen to ourselves, to our babies, and to the emerging new rhythms that can sustain us during this time. Our nervous systems have become so acclimated to being charged up and frazzled that it can feel abnormal to just BE. To breath. To sit. To listen deeply. 🖤 #slowdown #slowpostpartum #babymoon #postpartumdoula #motherhood #justbe #fourthtrimester #nervoussystem #newborns #emerging #parenting #breathe #rhythm #stillness #newnormal #settlein #postpartumisforever
