Become a 40 Days of Love Postnatal Guide

   

Train with me to become a Blossom & Berry Professional 40 Days of Love Post Natal Guide 

  

A parent’s experience of the first forty days following the birth of  their child will impact greatly upon their health and wellbeing for the  next forty years. This is a crucial window of time in which a  postpartum parent needs to be nurtured, nourished, supported and held in  order to recover well and thrive in their new role.


Mel Craven is a Doula and Mental Health Social Worker, who has  created a course for Blossom and Berry which celebrates, honors,  encourages and protects this very important parent baby relationship.  That acknowledges the importance of this time for slowing down, allowing  space for adjusting to the new parenting role, healing, rest and  rejuvenation during the first six weeks.



What Will You Learn?

You  will learn how to prepare traditional postpartum meals, support a  parent’s physical healing and breastfeeding/chestfeeding journey and  create a postpartum sanctuary.

We will take you on a trip around the world learning from many culture’s different postpartum practices, weaving them in to a nurturing  model which honors the parent and surrounds them in a cocoon of love as  they adjust to their new way of being as a parent in the world.

Included is an introduction to traditional rebozo techniques, and bodywork.

    

The importance of The First 40 Days

Once you realise just how vital and important the first forty days  is to the mothers/parents immediate and long-term health on every level  it becomes a matter of urgency to ensure this sacred window is honoured  and protected. 

Babies whose needs for closeness and comfort are responded to and  lovingly met grow up to be happier and more confident adults than those  whose needs were ignored.

Likewise, mothers/parents who have their needs met during the  postpartum period are much more likely to be healthy and emotionally  balanced later on, with less incidence of perinatal anxiety and post  natal depression.


Support for the Birth Partners

As a 40 Days of Love Teacher we also encourage you to be inclusive  of and to reach out to the birth partners when planning for postnatal  care and support. Supporting partners, so that they can support the  birthing person, can have positive effects on the family as a whole.
