The postpartum window is sacred. In Ayurveda, this period is often called the sutrika kala—a delicate time to rest, receive, and restore. When we honor this window with intention, deep healing unfolds.

Some of the most powerful Ayurvedic practices for postpartum include:

• Abhyanga (warm oil massage) – Using herbal oils to calm the nervous system, support circulation, and gently bring the body back into balance.
  
  
• Herbal steams and sitz baths – To soothe the perineum, encourage tissue healing, and support elimination.
  
  
• Spiced herbal teas – Such as fennel, cumin, and ginger to ease bloating, boost digestion, and enhance milk flow.
  
  
• Warm, spiced foods – To rebuild strength and deeply nourish your tissues.
  
  

These practices don’t need to be elaborate. With support and the right guidance, they can become a natural part of your daily rhythm—offering healing from the inside out.
