For the mother who is still depleted, flat and foggy long after the six-week check — whether your baby is six weeks old or three years old.

This gentle workbook starts with your body, not your willpower. It explains what pregnancy, birth and the months afterwards quietly used up — and why you can be tired in a way sleep won't fix. Then it walks you through a 30-day gentle rebuild in three steps, Replenish → Restore → Return, small and in your own time.

Inside:

  • How depleted am I right now? — a simple, kind self-check
  • Is this depletion, or is it postnatal depression? — and when to speak to your GP or health visitor
  • When the hormones crash, the invisible load, and when you're angry all the time
  • The scary thoughts no one warns you about
  • Rebuilding your village, sleep when you're the one who can't, and being kind to your changed body
  • If thirty days feels like too much — a smaller way in

Gentle, body-first self-care — not medical advice. If you are struggling, please speak to your GP or health visitor.
