The woman has a predominant energy base Yin, and the acupuncture meridians Ren Mai and Chong Mai are extremely important throughout the life and reproductive cycles of the woman.
A parasitic relationship between the baby and the mother is established during pregnancy. Yes, I know it's not the most beautiful view of pregnancy!
But in fact and especially in the last quarter, the woman feels her energy draining rapidly. After all, pregnancy causes a state of physiological heart failure.
Then the delivery is followed, where the woman employs all her strength, where there are significant blood loss and placental output.
The baby is born and the mother breastfeeds, and breast milk is another yin component of our body.
In addition, the yin collects inside the body and fills the Meridians during night sleep. Well, a good night's sleep is a mirage for many mothers of small babies.
This is why for Chinese medicine the Baby Blues and Postpartum Depression are an energetic syndrome based on the void of yin energy and blood.
With a specific and different therapeutic approach to the approach of other depressive syndromes.
Surely the best help a mother can have in childbirth is a good support network!
And also the faith that in time everything will improve!
