We are mamas and birth workers who decided to do birth differently– and bring others along with us. We are kind, fun to work with, and great at (lovingly) calling people on their bullshit. With 12 children and 20 years of midwifery between us, we’ve learned a thing or two along the way, and Indie Birth is our space to share it all with you.

In this episode of Taking Back Birth, I talk about some options you may not know about to help you round-out your self-care. None are necessary, but all may help balance and support you.

Here are just a few of the things I discuss…

  • 5 amazing ways to naturally support your pregnancy.
  • Ways to use flowers and herbs to compliment your self-care.
  • Suggestions for sources/practitioners.
  • Why these suggestions are not NEEDED but can help provide optimum health.

    This has been my favorite pod cast so far! These are things that I find so important for a balanced self-care approach. I learned some new things and got some new resources to research. Thanks, Maryn!

  2. Emily S says:

    This has been my favorite podcast so far! I loved this. So informative, but I definitely want more information! Thanks for sharing and your willingness to help 🙂

  3. Ambyre says:

    Is there a way to get the transcript for this one? I read better than I can listen.

  4. Maryn Green says:

    We are working to get the transcripts done but we don’t have them for every podcast yet. If you scroll to the bottom of the archive page you can see which ones are complete with PDFs. https://indiebirth.org/podcastarchives

  5. Thanks for this informative approach one of my favorite subjects ever: alternative medicinal care. I’m very familiar with all that has been shared and would love to know what is your kit for homeopathy and Flower essences for pregnancy, labor and birth. Together with my cabinet of EO (which like you I adore), I have all the 38 flower essences as taught by Bach (they are British Crystal Herbs) . Anyways, I know this is enough subject for a workshop, but if you happen to have something written down (like the free e-book on EO -do tou still have that?) about both homeopathy and Flower essences, please let me know. Love to you!!!
