The C-Section Healing Space
The C-Section Healing Space is a gentle, body-led podcast for women who have given birth by C-section and don’t quite feel like themselves, even months or years later. Hosted by Divina, Birth Trauma Recovery Coach and mother of three C-section babies, these conversations explore the emotional, nervous system and energetic side of C-section recovery. This is about understanding what your body has been holding and coming back home to yourself.

Numbness After C-Section - What Your Body Is Protecting You From
If you’ve felt emotionally flat, disconnected, or like something in you has gone quiet after your C-section… you are not broken.
In this episode, we gently explore why numbness is one of the most common and least talked about nervous system responses after birth trauma.
You’ll learn:
• Why numbness is protection, not absence
• How the nervous system uses shutdown to create safety
• The subtle ways numbness can show up in daily life
• Why feeling doesn’t return through force but through safety
If this resonates, exhale. Your body may have been protecting you all along.
