Welcome to this gentle, nurturing episode for those preparing for birth, those who have ever given birth, and care providers who support birthing and postnatal bodies.

Claire Eccleston is a midwife, and craniosacral therapist working within the STREAM philosophy of internal pelvic work and scar tissue remediation post-birth. And together we discuss some important topics within the realms of birthing, motherhood initiations, and gentle postpartum tools to support healing after birth.

Other topics we cover are:

• What is STREAM philosophy.
• How to connect with your body, vagina/vulva pre-birth, & how this helps with healing.
• The healing process after birth & scar tissue remedies.
• Adjusting to your new body as an individual & as a family.
• Some common mistakes women are making post-birth that don’t support their healing process.
• How women can best prepare themselves for a postpartum that honoring of their bodies.
• The common hurdles that couples face post-partum.
• Recommendations on re-approaching love-making and pleasure after birth?
• How couples can stay connected during and after post partum, with the stressors of family life.
• How new mums can stay connected to themselves & their pleasure after birth.

And so much more!

Something Claire really lands in this episode is the importance of conversation and having dialogue around the transitions experienced throughout this transformative time.
