Sacred Pregnancy Classes

The theme of part ONE focuses on what it means to create a ‘pregnancy practice’. 

The women will come away from the class session with an understanding of the importance of setting up a sacred space in their own homes that they will regularly use for their meditations, empowerment objects, birth art and as a reminder of their innate power to birth their babies.

The theme of part TWO is the ‘pregnancy practice’ surrounding connection + expectations. 

The pregnant mamas will leave the class with a deeper look at how they are already connecting with their babies or not, their expectations around pregnancy + birth + becoming mothers and how they are already forming connections with each other. They are building a tribe with each other and its important to acknowledge that bonding.

The theme of part THREE is romance + relationships.

The pregnant mamas will take a deeper look at their connection with their partners and how having a baby is currently affecting them as a couple. It’s very important to discuss these issues early on in the relationship so both partners in the relationship feel good + supported throughout the entire journey.

The theme of part FOUR is body image + food.

The pregnant mamas will leave the class with a deeper look at their relationship to food, their food traditions, consciousness around cooking + eating and most importantly, how does their changing body feel to them.  We talk about how gaining weight and watching their bodies change may affect their emotional state.

The theme of the week is FEARS + FORGIVENESS.

The pregnant mamas will leave today’s group with a deeper understanding of what her fears are (rational or irrational) and where she thinks they came from.  It’s very important to have them try to release those fears back into the universe.  In addition to the release work, the women will have an opportunity to take an intimate look at what blocks she has in her life and if those are related to things and / or people, she may need to forgive. Holding onto past hurts does not allow one to move forward with pure intentions and moving into motherhood should be done in full presence and emotional availability.

The theme of the week is HONOURING.

The women will leave the group with a complete happy gooey feeling about HER pregnant self and a look at how emotionally ready she is to give birth.

This is an incredibly special week in the series – a must for all pregnant women so their cup can be filled with love + care.

The theme of this part is stepping into motherhood as a right of passage and how crossing the threshold from maiden to mother is a massive undertaking that not only needs to be recognized and ceremonially honoured, but deeply necessitates a healing touch that can welcome the new mama with open arms.

The definition of Postpartum Care is helping a woman regain both physical and emotional balance as she readjusts her post birth body to a non-pregnant state of being. The Art of truly caring for a postpartum mother lives in the delivery of the service. It’s a delicate touch, a soft voice, a healing hand, and a listening ear, and it’s the way the brush strokes of each of these, paints a picture for a mama after she has crossed the threshold from maiden to mother. This is a spiritual time that deserves reverence, humility, expert care, and warmth that enables the postpartum mama to truly heal and seal the birth process.

The theme of the last portion is SISTERHOOD.

Each woman will leave with a sense of closure and connectedness with the other women. This is the final discussion before they leave and the real focus is on their bonds with each other and how the experience impacted them, as well as spending time to “go to the bowl” for the final collective “practice”.
