When Dr. Serrallach first wrote about postnatal depletion on goop, he hit a nerve - particularly with the revelation that some women in his practice experience the after-effects of having a child for seven to ten years later. It shouldn't be this way, nor does it have to be: this is the comprehensive guide to women's health for every mother - new, or years out - who has ever felt tired, rundown, or just not like herself. With great empathy and wisdom, Dr. Serrallach explains how to restore your health and vitality using nutrition, gentle exercises, and simple strategies to get you to finally feel like yourself again. - Gwyneth Paltrow
Mums, let's be real: having a baby is hard. It can wreak havoc on your energy, your body, and even your concentration. Women need to practise self-care more than ever before, yet have less time than ever before. With great compassion and creativity, Dr. Serrallach proposes an answer - we can make little changes to our sleep habits, our eating habits, the way we talk to our loved ones, and to our expectations for ourselves, to protect and fortify ourselves every day. - Dawn Dais, author of THE SH!T NO ONE TELLS YOU: A GUIDE TO SURVIVING YOUR BABY S FIRST YEAR
The best programs and solutions for health issues are born of doctors who want to help themselves or their loved ones. That is how Dr. Serrallach arrived at his understanding of postnatal depletion, and what makes this book so helpful to women with the same issue, which is a world epidemic. His book is a guide to reclaiming optimal health that any mother who has given birth in the last seven years should read. - Alejandro Junger, M.D., New York Times bestselling author of CLEAN, CLEAN EATS, and CLEAN GUT and founder of the acclaimed Clean Program
