Birth & Becoming
An online Holistic Birth & Postpartum Preparation journey
This combines traditional wisdom, ancient teachings and modern practices to prepare Mothers and her village for the portal of Birth and her journey into her Becoming Mother.
Birth is a sacred event yes, we must also honor the transition of the woman's Rite of Passage that she walks in her postpartum period
The foundation and pillars of this course are created to support, nurture and create space for the care and community that the Mother will require so that she can flourish and heal. These are based on innate wisdom that if the Mother has the village and safety created, she can focus on the needs of her baby as these vital support people will hold her in this process of rebirthing herself in between worlds
