UNDERSTANDING BIRTH TRAUMA: C Sections, Vaginal Birth, Breastfeeding Issues & More with Effath Yasmin


Listen Later

This podcast is with Effath Yasmin, who is a lactation consultant and a Biodynamic Cranio Sacral (BCST) therapist who has worked with mothers and babies all her life, and she is also a filmmaker/author/trainer/therapist/flower medicine practitioner. Effath has spent her life working with mothers and babies. In this conversation, she opens up the often-unspoken layers of birth trauma—how vaginal births and C-sections can leave deep physical and emotional imprints on the mother, the baby, and the entire family ecosystem. We explore how these early experiences influence: ✨ breastfeeding ✨ bonding ✨ postpartum mental health ✨ nervous system regulation ✨ and the subtle undercurrents in family relationships. This is not just a “parenting conversation.” It is about the human experience of being born, the mother-baby dyad, and how early imprints echo through adulthood, identity, behaviour, and relationships. I genuinely invite men, women, parents, non-parents, mental health professionals, medical practitioners, and anyone interested in emotional wellness to watch this. It’s deep, layered, grounding, and sensitively held. I truly hope this episode brings you new perspectives, compassion, and understanding. Enjoy the conversation.
