For birth workers, community members, and professionals who serve Indigenous communities.
Birth is a ceremony that breaks open the doors between this world and the next. Birth is an experience that both ruptures and repairs the mind, body, and spirit. Our traditional postpartum rituals, wisely passed down from our ancestors, complete the birthing ceremony and protect the birthing person from illness and fatigue. These rituals close the door between worlds. This is the postpartum healing lodge.
My English name is Raeanne Madison and I am a Crane Clan citizen of the Ojibwe nation, and also carry Mexika and Dutch ancestry.
I’ve dedicated over a decade of service to working with new families in the realms of pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and parenting. A natural teacher and practicing postpartum doula, I’ve had the honor to teach thousands of community members, professional staff, and elected officials about Indigenous resilience and excellence.
“I don’t know how I survived without it!”
“It works better than anything they give you at the hospital. I will never give birth without this again.”
“Our culture is like the seeds of a flower. We have to spread the seeds to keep our culture alive.” -Abuela Celia
