The Safe Return to Exercise
The Safe Return to Exercise
A gentle, intelligent guide for healing after birth
You’ve been told you’re “cleared for exercise.” This guide explains what that actually means.
The Safe Return to Exercise is an educational, trauma-informed guide designed to help you return to movement after birth safely, thoughtfully, and without pressure.
This is not a workout plan. It’s a framework for learning how to listen to your body, manage pressure wisely, and make informed decisions about exercise, classes, and daily movement—now and long after the postpartum window.
What’s included
The full Safe Return to Exercise digital guide (PDF)
Companion materials to support integration, including:
a Quick-Start Companion Sheet
a Readiness Checklist
a Daily Breathing Practice
Healing affirmations
These materials are designed to be used alongside the guide to support reflection, discernment, and everyday application.
Optional support & resources (available at checkout)
Some people benefit from additional guidance as they move through the postpartum period. Optional add-ons may include:
Postpartum Integration Session — a short virtual consult to help you apply the guide to your body, clarify readiness, and decide next steps
Six-Week Checkup Guide — a reflective tool to help you prepare for your postpartum medical visit and have more meaningful conversations with your care provider
Other digital resources that support postpartum recovery and long-term wellbeing
All add-ons are optional and meant to complement—not replace—the guide.
