To find peace, I tried everything - researching, meditating, and journaling. No matter what I did, I worried I wasn’t enough. But here’s the thing: postpartum anxiety is a reality for many, and it’s okay to feel overwhelmed. You’re not alone. Through focusing on my mental health, doing lots of research, and trial and error, I was able to create a practical plan for post-baby life that worked for me. And now I’m excited to share it with you! If you want to feel calmer, more patient, and confident as a mom...

123 | HyperBaric Oxygen Therapy and Red Light Therapy For Postpartum Healing with Amy Anderson
Episode Summary:In this episode of "New Mom Naturopath," Dr. Kailyn Galloway welcomes Amy Anderson, the owner of Oxygen and Light, a hyperbaric oxygen therapy center in Seattle. Amy shares her journey into hyperbaric oxygen therapy, beginning with her work in the commercial dive industry and transitioning to medical applications. The episode delves into the benefits of hyperbaric oxygen therapy for postpartum healing, emphasizing its role in speeding up recovery at the cellular level and aiding the body's healing processes.

Title: 120 | The 1st step to reducing anxiety in Postpartum as First-time Mom
Welcome to the New Mom Naturopath Podcast!
Exercise can significantly reduce anxiety in postpartum by leveraging the body's natural mechanisms for mood regulation. Physical activity stimulates the release of endorphins, which are natural mood lifters, and reduces stress hormones like adrenaline and cortisol, helping to alleviate anxiety. Regular exercise also boosts serotonin and dopamine levels, neurotransmitters critical for maintaining a positive mood. Engaging in various forms of exercise, such as aerobic activities, strength training, yoga, and outdoor pursuits, not only helps manage anxiety but also provides a sense of accomplishment and mental resilience. Incorporating enjoyable and consistent physical activity into daily life, whether through group classes, outdoor activities, or simply taking a walk, can be a powerful tool for new moms to manage postpartum anxiety effectively.

Show Notes for Episode 121: You Were Never Told About this Part of Postpartum
Episode Summary:
In today’s episode, we delve into the hidden emotional journey that many new moms experience but rarely discuss—the mourning process during postpartum. While most focus on the physical aspects of recovery after childbirth, the emotional and mental adjustments are just as significant. We explore the three major areas where this mourning often occurs: the loss of freedom, the changes in your body, and the shifts in relationships. Understanding and acknowledging these feelings is crucial for a healthy transition into motherhood.
