Research supports our S.E.L.F. model: Rest, (Sleep), movement (Exercise), nourishment (Food), and restorative pleasure (Laughter/leisure) all play a critical role in postpartum brain health and emotional well-being.

💜Postpartum exercise is linked with fewer depressive and anxiety symptoms.

💜Adherence to a brain-healthy eating pattern is associated with lower odds of postpartum depressive symptoms
