“Thriving Postpartum is imperative to the ancestral healing of all birthing people and their families. Prioritizing Indigenous practices impacts more current social injustices than we even realize—everything from sustainability to the protection and equality of Black and Brown bodies. Pānquetzani’s book is saving lives, one generation at a time.”—Kehlani, activist, home birther, and award-winning singer and songwriter

“This much-needed book brings to light the important and historical knowledge of Mexican Indigenous herbal medicine for women during their postpartum time. Pānquetzani provides a rich, practical, and highly effective guide on how to care for yourself with traditional herbs, body practices, and sacred foods and recipes from her years of experience working with women and expanding on the wisdom of her abuelas. She also lovingly and unflinchingly guides BIPOC new mothers through the variety of emotions that surface during this transition into motherhood to help navigate ancestral and familial wounds, systemic oppression, and relationships and sexuality with a focus on nervous system support and regulation practices. Reading this book will make you feel like Pānquetzani is your doula guiding you along your postpartum journey, reconnecting and empowering you with your sacred heritage. This book is a reclamation and a healing for BIPOC women and a sacred gift to future generations.”—Alisa Vitti, functional nutrition and women’s hormone expert, author of WomanCode and In the FLO, creator of the Cycle Syncing® Method, and founder of FLOliving.com

“Thriving Postpartum is such a gift to all women and babies everywhere. I almost wish I could have another baby just so I could use Pānquetzani’s services and have her light surrounding me and my baby.”—Ricki Lake, award-winning actor, TV host, and producer of The Business of Being Born and The Business of Birth Control
