Feel Like Yourself Again: Support for Postpartum Anxiety

Postpartum anxiety (PPA) is a common but often overlooked mental health condition that affects many mothers after giving birth. Unlike the "baby blues," PPA goes beyond worry — it can feel like a constant state of panic, racing thoughts, tightness in your chest, and an overwhelming fear that something bad is going to happen.

You might lie awake at night even when the baby is sleeping, feel hyper-alert during the day, or struggle to enjoy motherhood because you're stuck in your head. PPA can show up without warning, even if you’ve never had anxiety before. And while it's incredibly common, many moms feel ashamed to talk about it, which only makes it worse.

The good news? You’re not alone, and there’s real help available.

The "I’m Still Me" Reset

Postpartum anxiety can make you feel like a stranger in your own life. So let’s bring you back, not to how things were, but to the you that’s still here, underneath the overwhelm.

Do this right now. It takes less than a minute.

  1. Close your eyes and place your hand on your chest.
    Say quietly in your mind: “I am here. I am safe. I am not my thoughts.”
  2. Feel the rise and fall of your breath.
    Don’t try to change it — just notice.
    Even this is enough.
  3. Bring one calming image into your mind.
    A lake at sunrise. Your baby’s tiny fingers. A moment that made you smile.
    Stay with it for 5 seconds.
  4. Open your eyes and look around.
    Say out loud: “This moment is real. I am grounded in it.”

A Mom Who Snapped,
Then Rebuilt

Hi, I’m Irin. I built MamaZen after months of yelling, crying, and hating how I was showing up as a mom.

I had postpartum anxiety. Rage I didn’t recognize. And a deep fear I was ruining my kids.

My husband is a clinical hypnotherapist, and I asked him for help—because I didn’t need a tip. I needed a way out.

That first session changed everything. So we built MamaZen for moms, everywhere who are silently struggling.

And because this method saved my parenting journey, I wrote a book about it too: The MamaZen Method. To show you it’s possible to rebuild. To parent with calm. To come back to yourself.

What Real Moms Say After Just One Session (testimonials)

The racing thoughts, the guilt, the panic, I couldn’t explain it to anyone. MamaZen didn’t just help me cope, it helped me feel like me again.

Lena, first-time mom

I use MamaZen when I’m spiraling, when I can’t sleep, or when I just need someone to tell me I’m not a bad mom. It’s like a hug I can reach for anytime.

Maya, mom of a newborn

I didn’t even know I had postpartum anxiety until I found MamaZen. I just thought I was broken. One session in and I felt like I could finally exhale.

Rachel, mom of two

Therapy wasn’t accessible for me, and I was drowning. MamaZen gave me a way to calm my body and reset my mind in the middle of the chaos.

Ana, NICU mama

The MamaZen Parenting Method isn’t just another book about parenting.

It’s a guide to transforming how you feel, think, and respond—so you can parent with calm, clarity, and confidence.

Why Nothing Else Has Worked (Until Now)

Books give you insight.
Tips give you strategies.
But when your child is screaming in the back seat, your body doesn’t reach for insight or strategies.
It defaults to survival mode—and that’s where MamaZen meets you.

You don’t need more advice.
You need to reset your baseline.
