womb medicine

In this episode, Suzanne speaks with India Elyn – folk herbalist, birthkeeper, artist and a healer who helps people tend the threshold of pregnancy loss. 

India is the author of the book Honouring the Loss: A Holistic Guide to Healing with Ritual and Herbal Medicine after an Abortion.

As a society, do we care for women who have made the difficult decision to have an abortion?

When women have medical assistance for an abortion -whether that is in hospital or clinic, or even these days completely within their own home – do they have the knowledge to care for themselves emotionally, physically, spiritually and mentally?

As women, do we care for each other after abortion?

Do we know how to honour the loss?

Do we feel deserving of that honouring and care?

Should we honour our losses through abortion?

How can we care for ourselves or other women after an abortion?

These are the questions we explore.
