    ✨ Purchase Your Reconnection Ritual Oil Today https://www.divinajohnson.com/product-page/reconnection-body-oil Feeling guilty after a C-section is incredibly common but that doesn’t mean the guilt belongs to you. In this episode of The C-Section Healing Space, I talk honestly about the shame, blame and guilt so many women carry after having a C-section, especially when society glorifies vaginal birth and dismisses the emotional reality of birth trauma. After having 3 C-sections in 5 years, including unplanned, planned and a unsuccessful VBAC attempted birth, I know firsthand how deeply these feelings can stay in the body. In this video we talk about: • Why women feel guilty after C-section • Society’s pressure around “natural birth” • Birth trauma and emotional healing • Emergency and unplanned C-sections • How guilt becomes stored in the body • Why your child does not love you any less • The emotional and energetic side of C-section recovery • Gentle ways to begin releasing guilt and reconnecting with yourself I also share simple nervous system and reconnection practices that supported my own healing after traumatic birth experiences.

In this deeply honest episode of The C-Section Healing Space, I share my own experience after having 3 C-sections, including not feeling that instant “rush of love” with my first two babies after traumatic birth experiences. We talk about: • Why some women don’t bond instantly after birth • Trauma and emotional shutdown after C-section • The nervous system and birth trauma • How difficult labour experiences affect bonding • Epidurals, emotional numbness and overwhelm • Why guilt and shame keep women silent • Emotional healing after traumatic birth • How suppressed emotions stay in the body I also share gentle first steps to begin reconnecting with yourself and your body after C-section, including the simple 5-minute ritual that supported my own healing journey.

    Why you don’t feel like yourself after C-Section (the part no one talks about)

    Why do so many women feel disconnected from themselves after a traumatic C-section? In this episode of The C-Section Healing Space, I explore the deeper emotional and energetic side of C-section recovery, the part that is rarely spoken about. We talk about: - nervous system shutdown after birth - emotional numbness after C-section - epidurals and the “spinal block” - trauma responses in the body - energy and emotional disconnection - why the scar healing doesn’t always mean you have healed - reconnecting with your body after birth trauma I also share my own personal experiences from my three C-sections and why my third birth felt so different emotionally. This is a gentle, reflective conversation for women who feel: “I don’t feel like myself anymore.” ✨ Join the waiting list for the Reconnection Ritual: The Reconnection Ritual Disclaimer: The information shared in this podcast/video is for educational and informational purposes only and is based on personal experience, professional coaching perspectives and personal beliefs around emotional and nervous system healing.
