We believe that vibrant health cannot be cultivated in a lab, engineered through modern technology or found through “improving” nature. On the contrary, “life in all its fullness is mother nature obeyed,” as Dr. Price put it. We thrive when we live as our ancestors did, and we can look to the past for clues on how to go about it. This show, sponsored by the Weston A. Price Foundation, is an invitation to follow ancient health ways and to embrace alternative healing modalities to live our best lives. Our host, Hilda Labrada Gore, known as Holistic Hilda, interviews experts on a wide variety of topics—ranging from nutrient-dense foods to improving mental health to homesteading to detoxing to healing emotional trauma to the power of sunshine and mitigating EMFs. Every episode offers the listener a new (ancient) way to heal, grow, and live a happy life, brimming with vitality.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-06T20:18:11.149134+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/wise-traditions-7013628"},"episode":{"title":"579: The Ayurvedic Approach To Postpartum Healing With Christina Eck","slug":"579-the-ayurvedic-approach-to-postpartum-healing-with-christina-eck","published_at":"2026-05-18T10:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/wise-traditions-7013628/579-the-ayurvedic-approach-to-postpartum-healing-with-christina-eck","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/wise-traditions-7013628","url":"https://www.spreaker.com/episode/579-the-ayurvedic-approach-to-postpartum-healing-with-christina-eck--72053736","audio_url":"https://api.spreaker.com/download/episode/72053736/audio_final_wt_579_christine_eck.mp3","summary":"In many traditional cultures, the weeks following birth are understood as a critical window—one that shapes a mother's long-term health, energy, and emotional well-being. But in the modern world, postpartum care is often rushed, minimized, or overlooked entirely. In this episode, Christina Eck shares an Ayurvedic perspective on postpartum healing—one rooted in rest, nourishment, and intentional support for the mother. Drawing from both traditional wisdom and her clinical experience, she explains why the body is especially vulnerable after birth, what it truly needs to recover, and how simple, time-honored practices can help restore balance. Christine discusses the role of warmth, digestion, and nervous system regulation in the postpartum period, along with the importance of hands-on bodywork in helping the body realign and heal. She also addresses the long-term consequences of neglecting this phase—and why many chronic issues women experience later in life can be traced back to an unsupported postpartum recovery. Whether a mother has just given birth or is years beyond it, this conversation offers a powerful reframing of what postpartum care can—and should—look like.
