The postpartum period can feel like a sauna; warm, sweaty, and just a little steamy with a side of overwhelming chaos. Yes, you’ve given birth to a tiny human, and you’re not exactly the same person you were six months ago. But newsflash: you don’t have to be! Embrace it, darling!
If you're looking for that magic spell to rekindle your pre-baby groove, we're not saying you need a Hogwarts letter – just yet!

Dive into one (or all) of these self-care practices to navigate your 0-to-6-month soup, and watch as Mondays start to feel like, dare we say, a breeze!
