The Beauty Way
of Birth
Clarifying Your Pathways to Birth
Pregnancy and birth is an initiation into motherhood, into womanhood, into your wise woman within. It is an opportunity to experience your inherent instinctual wisdom. The physical body knows how to birth. Body wisdom also knows how to express to you what it requires for harmony. Every woman knows how to listen. It is my design to hold space for you to connect with this inherent knowing to inform your pregnancy and birth choices; the doorway to birthing not only your child, but also your Self.
I am presently offering a 6 week experiential series where we will explore your awareness and perception of the potentials for your birth experience. The goal and intent of this journey is to help you connect with your instinctual awareness helping you to glean clarity from within regarding your birth choices. This is based on the understanding that the mother, and the family, knows intuitively exactly what is needed for the optimal birth experience. The intent is to help you anchor into this instinct and make your choices based on love and not fear. We recognize no one can control or predict how your birth will play out, but they can interfere. Moreover, we can release fears and beliefs that may be interfering with making birth choices rooted in love & instinctual knowing. Only you know what’s best for you. This class is offered for couples but is also available for just the birthing woman.
This is a 6 week series. It is offered in person in Sedona, AZ. In the event that you miss a day, there is an opportunity to have a private session so that you can then join the group for an additional cost. Each week you will be given a flower essence to work with the present area that we are working with. You will receive 6 flower essence blends throughout your class experience (valuing at $150.)
This series is not a substitute for prenatal care nor is it designed to replace this care. This is a journey into your own knowing supporting you in making choices from this space for your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey. I feel that birth is an opportunity to experience your deepest knowing as a woman and to share this trust with the generations to come through you.
All interested mamas receive a free 30 minute phone consult so that you can get to know who I am and what I am offering, and if this feels like a match for you. Please contact me if you'd like to set this up.
Class Curriculum
Week 1: Personal Story & Birth
Your beliefs about birth are imprinted through your own birth, societal imprints, familial imprints, and personal beliefs. In this class we will first explore your own birth and your beliefs around birth.
Week 2: Body Wisdom & Trust
Your body physiologically & instinctively knows exactly how to release your child naturally and gently. It also knows instinctively how to guide you when it is requiring help to achieve harmony. In this class we will be connecting with your body wisdom and supporting you in trusting your body & self to surrender ot the natural process of birth.
Week 3: Exploring & Dissolving Fear
We sometimes fear what we do not understand or have fears based on past experiences. These unexplored fears can inform the choices you make around birth as well as your birthing experience. In this class we will be exploring your fears around that may come up around birth and will explore ways in which we can gently integrate and dissolve them.
Week 4: VOICE. Honoring you & your child’s Voice.
How you prepare the space for your birth is up to you and your family. It is your voice that can guide this process whether it is setting up the room for a homebirth, to writing up your birth plan. My son deeply informed my birth choices through dreams and meditations and even guided my postpartum choices. It was profound to see how his choices and what he shared with me about him are so clear in his character today. In this class we will contact not only your voice of knowing, but also will guide you into ways you can listen and be guided by your child's voice. We will ask your child's soul what they choose for their birth.
Week 5: CHOICE.
We have contacted our root system, the beliefs we have about birth and how our birth impacted us. We have connected more deeply with our body wisdom and inner knowing. We have asked our child to guide us in our birth choices. With all that information we are now going to look more deeply at what we choose after these weeks of self inquiry.
Group Blessing Way & Sacred Circle
To conclude and contain our 5 weeks of work together we will have a group blessing way where we will come together in sacred circle and prayer to support and bless each other’s individual choices and visions. There are some sweet surprises we have prepared for you. You will receive as a sendoff gift of the flower essence “Labor Angels” for your day of emergence.
