The path of Sacred Pregnancy
Birth Preparation Support
The birth preparation I offer involves me holding space for you to receive loving support, pregnancy is truly the optimal time to become acquainted with receiving. I believe all women have the answers they are seeking within and I also know from my own experience the importance of having the support of a wise woman who has journeyed through the fire walk of birth before. My intention is to reflect, to listen and hold your hand as you connect to your intuition and deepen your trust in your body and primal knowing.
Birth Preparation Support
I walk alongside women through the rites of passage that are pregnancy, birth and postpartum so that women enter new motherhood well nourished, witnessed and deeply held. I recognise this as the most sacred time of a woman's life and i believe every woman deserves to be honoured as she walks through the portal.
I love to work with women who are ready to take radical responsibility for themselves, who make decisions rooted in sovereignty, who know that birth is a shamanic journey.
Traditional Postpartum
Traditionally women were tended to with love, warmth, bodywork, nutrient dense food, herbs and community. This is still practised in many cultures around the world and many women here too are rejecting the modern bounce-back narrative and remembering the importance of honouring this magickal time so as to thrive as a mama. The way a mama is supported in the postpartum ripples out into later life, In Traditional Chinese Medicine they acknowledge that 40 days of rest and nourishment in postpartum, equate to how well resourced the mama is for the following 40 years of her life, so it truly is a worthy investment for your health and wellbeing.
I believe that we can never have too much support in the postpartum as community really is foundational for thriving postpartum health, so many people are living and mothering in isolation and that is counterintuitive to optimal health, I can support you in reaching out to your community for support. I also hold space for women through early birth and abortion, these too are sacred portals and deserve the same love, tenderness and reverence. Please reach out to me to discuss how I can support you.
The postpartum is a tender and vulnerable time, after birthing your baby you are literally and energetically wide open. This heightened sensitivity and emotion commands respect and protection, you are highly attuned to your baby and they you, what a beautiful thing! Your heart expands more than you ever deemed possible, your breasts are full and overflowing to nourish your babe, your womb releasing the blood that held your baby as they grew, so much pouring out of your love and energy that it is essential for you to receive.
