Giving birth is a true miracle, our bodies are amazing and nothing compares
to holding your baby.

But often once we have given birth, we often forget to prioritize our own
well-being. Our bodies went through a tremendous journey and should have
time to recover and heal. This book will help you take charge of your own
postnatal recovery, to be the best version of yourself so you can look after
your baby in the best possible way. From candid prenatal advice, birth
advice to postnatal care of your body and mind including healing your vagina
to exercising your body, everything is covered.

Having gone through postpartum depression and the lack of available
information, Eva has created a tool that can help you navigate this delicate
path of becoming a mom, being a partner and above all being you in all your
authenticity.

“Let this exercise be your joyful daily practice.”

Eva is the creator of exercise programs tailored specifically for women
after giving birth. The goal of her work is to make exercise a joyful daily
practice. As a trainer and instructor, she found her passion in healthy
movement by encompassing full body acceptance and true expression of
self-love through the connection of body and mind. Eva connects exercise
with psychosomatics, which she considers to be the source of all physical
ailments. Eva believes in teaching wholehearted acceptance of each woman’s
unique body. To listen to our body, is to understand our body.

Introduction 

Before opening the first chapter, let’s mention a couple of notes that can help you understand this book’s meaning. It all depends on what stage of life you are in right now. There are three possibilities. First, you are pregnant and getting ready for childbirth. Second, you have already delivered, so your baby is in your arms. Third, you are a man interested in what is going on within the female body. In that case, you are “Mr. Awesome.” congratulations to your significant other; she is so lucky.

In the prenatal stage, you should focus on physical and mental preparation for birthgiving. Overall, the mind and body condition during pregnancy will influence childbirth. I recommend having a birth attendant or a doula who will introduce you to all the aspects of giving birth.

Don’t underestimate the importance of consultation and communication with somebody experienced.

In the second case, you experienced the best thing: your baby was born. You can’t influence the delivery of your baby because it already happened, but you can still focus on your body’s after-birth recovery to ensure everything goes well.

A couple of words about the author – me:  I am not a physical therapist or a birth attendant. I am a Pilates Teacher-Trainer and a Movement Therapist. In practice, I started focusing on pregnant women and those who just delivered because there wasn’t enough information. I needed new knowledge when I was pregnant, which was hard to find. I gained fifty-one pounds and suffered from post-delivery depression, mainly because my body didn’t work as described in the books I read. I went through the same amount of uncertainty and worries you probably do now. Everything can be unpleasantly new, and you don’t recognize your body just because you moved to another level. You became a mother. 

The impulse to write this book is the need for more literature about post-delivery time. The bookstore shelves are full of books about how to get pregnant, pregnancy, or delivery, but there is a minimal amount of text on what to do AFTER giving birth. It feels like when the baby gets out of your body, everything gets back to normal. The opposite is true. When you deliver, it’s just the beginning of a giant rollercoaster.

A little disclaimer to this book, I use terms like “vagina, vaginal entrance, or pelvic floor” wherever necessary. 

This text’s advice and observations will help you understand and seize your body and mind. The body won’t function well if not connected to the mind. Everything is in your head. Therefore, we will focus on the somatic method and the actions of the body related to it. Somatics is a practice that utilizes the body-mind connection to learn how to find and work with any problem within the body.

All the advice and observations are from my head and practice. Of course, I was influenced by many books I have read and many bodies I have worked with.

About the Author

After many years of putting my body through suffering at a dance
conservatory and in theatres, I decided to approach my body in a new and
different way. My first impulse was practicing Pilates which grew into
compensatory methods. I became more and more interested in the mind-body
connection which led me to discover psychosomatics. Since I myself went
through a complicated postpartum period where I felt amazed but also
betrayed by my own body and my uncooperative mind, I started focusing on
working with women in the postpartum period. Out of this experience and the
desire to help as many women as possible, this book was born.
