In this episode of 'The Nourished Nervous System,' I welcome special guest Christine Eck, an Ayurvedic health consultant, birth and postpartum doula, and founder of the Center for Sacred Window Studies.

We discuss the importance of postpartum care through the lens of Ayurveda, focusing on Vata dosha, the concept of the sacred postpartum window, and how specific Ayurvedic practices such as Abhyanga (oil massage) can support new mothers.

Christine shares her personal journey, touches on the intersection of postpartum care and nervous system health, and offers practical advice for those looking to support themselves or others during this critical time.

I also share my own experiences with postpartum care and how these practices have profoundly impacted my life and health.
In this episode:

  • Christine's Journey to Ayurveda
  • Understanding Vata Dosha
  • The Postpartum Nervous System
  • The Sacred Window Concept
