Listen Later

In the episode today we are talking about approaching postpartum from a natural and holistic perspective. Dr. Christy Matusiak is a holistically-driven chiropractic physician practicing in Wilmette, IL.  She is writing a book, to be published by July 2021.  This is for the newly postpartum mother, struggling with finding herself and gaining the mental clarity to be present for her growing family.  

In this episode we discuss: 

Christy’s background

  • How Christy got started in her field 
  • What muscle testing is 

The importance of prioritizing yourself along with your family

The seven best “doctors” you can implement today to support your health:

  • Sunlight
  • Fresh Air
  • Diet
  • Exercise
  • Water
  • Sleep
  • Joy

Make a “Wellness Toolbox”

  • Write down a list of things that you enjoy doing or that bring you joy
  • Divide this list by time and by things that you can do by yourself or with others
  • This creates a “cheat sheet” for you to go to whenever you have a few minutes (or hours!) to yourself

Hormones:

  • "Normal" vs "Common"
  • PMS, PPD, Anxiety...etc.
  • Placenta encapsulation 

Neuro-Emotional Technique: 

  • Helps with overcoming stress and limiting beliefs
  • Organ-emotion-muscle relationships
  • We all need support sometimes
