Settling into Slowness w/ Lindsay Courcelle

<p>“I think a lot of that has to do with your own mindset and your faith that everything’s going to work out. Which is just so important in life in general, in your business, in your life - just trusting. And granted, it doesn’t always work out in an easy way, but I believe that things are going to work out well for people that are doing good work.”</p><p>Lindsay Courcelle is a mother of three, a myofascial release practitioner, and woman of many more hats, including a teacher and mentor for me in this world of bodywork, business, and body.</p><p><strong>We discuss…</strong></p><p>* Slowing down in country life - the homestead Lindsay and her husband have created, and the way they are now inviting people in</p><p>* “When I touch my body I touch the earth” - Our intimacy with our bodies (or lack thereof) correlate to our relationship to earth. How we have each fallen out of relationship with earth throughout seasons of our lives - and how we got it back, along with our creativity and power.</p><p>* The dynamics behind women (people?) being afraid of touching our own bodies - What will we discover? Can we trust that our hands can do something powerful for our own body? Can we trust that whatever comes up, we can hold?</p><p>* In a culture of orientation to drama, to big - what it means to slow down and tune in to subtlety of the daily devotions.</p><p>* You can touch your own body! You can use your own hands to heal your own children. Our bodies, our hands, especially as mothers are so wise.</p><p>* Pregnant bodies are less fragile, and less complicated in many ways than perhaps we think. Bodywork, self touch is amazing in pregnancy!</p><p>* Lindsay’s progression through three pregnancies and three babies, from mildly clueless (in the most loving way!), to trying to do everything right, to caring for herself gently, and letting things just flow.</p><p>* In person community - both the building of and the lack of. (Gah, I am so jealous of her community sauna! in her small town in VT). And a bit of my story of living in community and the beauty of seeing mother MOTHER around me, to creating more space for our family, more boundaries, more differentiation.</p><p>* Introducing our children to out bleeds, our female physiology.</p><p>* Child spacing! “Traditional” family spacing vs our more modern standards of closely spaced families. Nourishment between babies is huge.</p><p>* “Life is intense and has a will of it’s own” - The balance between resting and nourishing (especially with little kids) - and creation and business building.</p><p>* Our mineral lines - what our grandparents ate, and what we have been passed down. (We go deeper into this in the bonus.)</p><p>* Living in a ToXiC wOrLd (gosh, that capitalization is hard) - and allowing ourselves to chill, especially when it comes to kids. Avoiding all the things when possible - food dyes, EMFs, toxins, etc - without creating fear and hypervigilance.</p><p>* And how we share our foundation of values behind our choices with our children and relinquish control.</p><p>* The schooling, licensing, and following the rules quandaries - but tying it all back to community, values, and making your own choices and following your own path.</p><p><strong>Subscriber Content</strong></p><p>* A <strong>beautiful conversation </strong>about ancestry, land, grief and longing. The places and plants that feel like home, and the ways we are still searching for that feeling of “This is it. This is home.”</p><p>* I tell a story as a bonus bonus of working with a family line trauma - that coincided (or perhaps intentionally preceded) my pregnancy.</p><p>🧡 You can upgrade your subscription <a target="_blank" href="https://motherwisdom.substack.com/subscribe">right here</a>.</p><p><strong>Resources & Links</strong></p><p>* <a target="_blank" href="https://www.lindsaycourcelle.com/a/2148252665/5LgB3NaC"><strong>Genie Era</strong></a><strong> - Starts April 3rd! </strong>(But I bet you can still get in after)</p><p>14 days to release the trauma that’s been bottled up in your pelvis, so your body can support a 7 figure business and you can lead with the power of a woman who answers to no one but herself.</p><p>* <a target="_blank" href="https://www.lindsaycourcelle.com/a/2148186799/5LgB3NaC"><strong>Fascia Care for Kids</strong></a> and<a target="_blank" href="https://www.lindsaycourcelle.com/a/2148090801/5LgB3NaC"> </a><a target="_blank" href="https://www.lindsaycourcelle.com/a/2148090801/5LgB3NaC"><strong>Infant Fascia Care</strong></a> courses.</p><p>* I highly recommend <strong>following </strong><a target="_blank" href="https://www.instagram.com/lindsaycourcelle/"><strong>Lindsay on Instagram!</strong></a></p><p>* And my favorite set to music version of <a target="_blank" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYAkcL36aCE">On Children</a> by Khalil Gibran sung by Sweet Honey in the Rock.</p><p><strong>If this resonated…</strong></p><p>* Comment here in the comments!</p><p>* Leave a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify</p><p>* Share this episode with someone who needs to hear it</p><p><strong>Connect with me</strong></p><p>* Instagram - <a target="_blank" href="http://instagram.com/maible.arden">@maible.arden</a></p><p>* Website - <a target="_blank" href="http://maiblearden.com/">MaibleArden.com</a></p> <br/><br/>This is a public episode.

Postpartum is a Sacred Window

<p>We’ve seen what happens when a whole culture forgets how to care for mothers. Forgets we NEED to care for mothers. But the design of postpartum isn’t something to survive but a sacred window to be honored. One that ripples out into the rest of your life, your family, and your community.</p><p>In this nourishing and honest conversation, I sit down with Christine Eck, founder of the Center for Sacred Window Studies (who I studied with twice!), to explore the conscious, Ayurvedic approach to postpartum care. We talk about what it really means to learn from our own bodies, how to tend to the subtle shifts that can make a huge impact in our overall experience of the postpartum time, why digestion (Agni) is the key to recovery, and how receiving care transforms not just the mother, but the entire community. Whether you’re postpartum now, preparing for it, supporting others, or still untangling your own experience of not being supported, this conversation is a reminder that rest, honesty, and asking for care are not only allowed, but deeply wise, deeply necessary.</p><p><strong>We discuss…</strong></p><p>* Why honoring rest and nourishment in postpartum is so radical and so necessary</p><p>* What happens to Vata and Pitta after birth, and how to observe and know yourself, and simple tools to bring them back into balance</p><p>* Why postpartum depletion isn’t inevitable; it’s cultural, not natural</p><p>* Letting the floor be dirty: grief, discomfort & stepping out of productivity culture</p><p>* Why your body isn’t “broken” postpartum, this is the design. The sensitivity, the slow down, the vulnerability, all of it.</p><p>* Ayurveda as a living tradition of remembrance, a blueprint for what you already know, not a rulebook</p><p>* <strong>Agni 101</strong>: What your digestive fire has to do with healing (spoiler: everything)</p><p>* Why receiving care is the work, not a luxury</p><p>* Why healing is communal, not something you DIY with willpower, spreadsheets, and meal prepped date balls</p><p>Subscriber Content</p><p>* A <strong>lightning round</strong> on common postpartum advice through the lens of Ayurveda</p><p>* A beautiful breakdown of the <strong>Universal Mother Principles</strong> - energetic foundations for how we offer care, hold space, and mother ourselves and others.</p><p>* <a target="_blank" href="https://sacredwindowstudies.com/sacred-journey-landing/"><strong>Free 5-Day Mini Course</strong></a> on Ayurvedic Postpartum Care</p><p>If you want to nerd out more or just be reminded that care is your birthright, this bonus content is for you.</p><p>🧡 You can upgrade your subscription <a target="_blank" href="https://motherwisdom.substack.com/subscribe">right here</a>.</p><p>Resources & Links</p><p>* <strong>Healing Recipe Collection</strong> (comforting, simple, deeply nourishing)</p><p>* <a target="_blank" href="https://sacredwindowstudies.com/learn/ref/16/"><strong>Conscious Postpartum Caregiver Training</strong></a> with the Center for Sacred Window Studies</p><p>Feeling the pull to support new families in a deeper way?
