94: Postpartum Stress and how to start healing

Dr. Kathleen Kendall-Tackett is talking about some essential info on how stress affects postpartum moms and what to do about it! This is a must listen, it's so fascinating. This episode is jam packed with great information and insight. You might want to take notes and pass this along to others. What is so fantastic about this episode is that most people don't have access to this kind of info and education. We aren't reading research articles or even able to understand them half the time. Kathy gives us some education on how our bodies work, which I believe really helps us to take the blame off of ourselves. There are real things happening in our brains and bodies that affect how we feel, think and behave. There are really too many gems to count here... *Depression in pregnancy *Depression and breastfeeding *The stress response: what's normal, what hurts us *The role of inflammation in our illness *WHAT YOU CAN DO TODAY to get on the path to reducing stress and inflammation!
