I'm Julia. I'm a postpartum doula and I started working with exhausted and overwhelmed Newborn Mothers when I was only 24 years old, before I was a mother myself. Early on in my career I completed many postpartum trainings, and while they were all excellent in their own ways, none of them really addressed how to support Newborn Mothers through this major life transition, as a rite of passage. I am fascinated with Ayurveda, anthropology, hormones and brain science and this unusual combination has led me to a radically new paradigm for postpartum transformation. If you are pregnant or a Newborn Mother I'll teach you how to build your village, embrace baby brain and get in touch with your confidence and intuition. If you are a professional, I'll teach you how to create an abundant career and step into your life's work supporting Newborn Mothers. Now I've written books and created online courses and I have hundreds of students from dozens of countries around the world! I live by the Swan River in Fremantle with my husband and three children.

Klappentext

The last thing Newborn Mothers need is another book. Endless experts and advice undermine your intuition and confidence. Information overload doesn’t help when you feel isolated, exhausted and overwhelmed. What you really need is a hot cup of tea, a good night’s sleep and a laundry fairy. (Sadly, these things can’t fit inside a book!) But Newborn Mothers is about doing less, not more. It answers your real questions about the transformation to motherhood including... – Is baby brain real? Are you actually losing your mind? – You heard it takes a village to raise a child, but what does that look like in the 21st century? And how do you build yours? – You were told these are the best days of your life. Are you the only one finding it this hard? You planned for the birth, then realised those books and classes did nothing to prepare you for the rest of your life as a mother. Whether you are pregnant for the first time or your babies are growing up too fast, this book is your invitation to join a gentle, internal revolution in your heart and in your home. This book is a sanctuary for your birth as a mother. Free audiobook edition included!
