As many of you already know, at Postpartum University, we are huge advocates for exploring your roots and the power of connecting back to cultural traditions.

When it comes to whole body postpartum healing, there is incredible wisdom that has been passed down from cultures and societies all over the world.

In our traditional postpartum blog series, some of the cultures that we’ve collected rituals and recipes from include Chinese, Korean, Indian, Jamaican, and English.

On the Postpartum University podcast, we've talked about how to connect back to your own culture and continue to bring on guest experts to share their wisdom and unique perspective.

Here, we have compiled all our best resources on the subject of traditional postpartum care and practices.

This is something we will always value and continue to expand on. Be sure to check back in regularly to see what's new![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]
