Publisher's Synopsis

Though we now have more resources for ancestral birthing and self-care practices than ever, postpartum care is still largely stuck in an outdated, patriarchal paradigm that fails to serve mothers and newborns. 'Slowing down, recovering fully, and giving your baby the best start isn't a privilege - it's a basic human need,' says Panquetzani, a leading expert in Indigenous health care for women. In 'Thriving Postpartum', she shares the sacred ritual of la cuarentena (or quarantine) that honors, nurtures, and empowers a birthing person's transition into their new life.
