About this episode

This episode discusses a postpartum breathing practice to aid recovery before returning to regular workouts.

If you're freshly postpartum, healed from delivery, but not yet cleared to return to your regular workouts, this episode is for you. Drawing from the experts and specialists we've featured on the podcast, I share one of the most important tools for early postpartum recovery: diaphragmatic breathing. We'll cover how to use your breath to gently re-engage your pelvic floor, reconnect your brain to your abdominal muscles, and begin rebuilding strength without jumping into intense exercise too soon. You'll also learn how small, intentional movements can help restore coordination between your core and pelvic floor as your body heals. Whether you're weeks or months postpartum, this simple practice can lay the foundation for a stronger recovery and a safer return to movement.
