vata pacifying for the vata pacifier

[Guest guest]

So I know this may sound silly but here goes....

I studied with Martha (doulaminerva) the ways of Postpartum care and

have been working at it lately often...which includes much vata

pacification for the postpartum woman in the form of fresh meals and

an herbal infused oil rub. I've discussed this with Martha and she

has given me suggestions but I wanted to post my problemo here too

to see if there were more from others.

Instantly upon leaving the clients home, I am inundated with her

vata. I also have to come home to my two year old son, so, alot of

self pampering is not happening. Today I came home and did a self

massage and took a shower and then warm milk tonic with bala,

shatavari, ashwaganda, vindari, cardamom.... and then laid down for

a bit, which helped but...still lots of vata in the colon and back

bones. I guess I'm looking for a variety of options because I so

love this work.

Thanks in advance, I really learn alot from everyone's posts here.

Bless
