pk question & birth trauma

[Guest guest]

Hello,

So I just finished my pancha karma. I was feeling amazing and then the last two

days I came down with a nasty cold. For those who know, could this be a part of

the purification? It sort of feels that way strangely enough. I really enjoyed

the pancha karma and was bummed to come down with a cold ( I haven't been sick

for awhile). Thanks in advance...and besides taking my ashwaganda in my milk

tonic at night, any other suggestions for the post pancha karma for a vata

lady?!

 

As for the birth trauma, I recommend home birth as an antidote to the trauma

that hospital birth can sometimes acquire. This coming from a midwifery student

about to take her boards in a couple of months (and a homebirth mama myself!).

No bias! Countless homebirth moms will tell me again and again how this is

nothing like hospital birth, so much gentler and respectful and empowering!

 

Thanks,

Shannon

Hi Shannon -

Please tell in detail what your routine was like the last few days of

your pK? When did you start taking a milk tonic and herbs again -

after the cold cleared?

 

Agree with you on healing of the emotions from an unsatisfying birth

experience clearing with a good one (no matter how hard the work still

is). Congratulations on being so close to completing your midwifery

training!
