Pregnancy and Childbirth: Embracing Transformation

In pregnancy literally  your whole body is in change – your mind is changing and developing and you face challenges you might never have come across bevore. Pregnancy can be tough out of many reasons – even if it is the thing you desired most. Birthing and raising children feels so huge. It is about Life and death, about a whole humans life. You probably may not have experienced anything severe and responsible like that before if you don´t work in a business which is about literally saving lifes. Pregancy and birth is always a transformation and an initiation. Where you go beyond your limits – and grow.

Because of all that, pregnancy and childbirth are working as magnifying glass or lens: where so much life-changing topics and questions emerge, accompanied by fears.

The way I work with and teach is to fully embrace the challenge and that special time. To commit with your whole heart and soul to this experience to take the chance and become the best possible mother* NOW. To undig your powers now, really experience this initiation consciously so that you get the most out of it:

• a joyful soulful pregnancy with your needs met

• a fullfilling birth (that can be without pain- yes that is possible for you too)

•  become a strong, loving, nourishing mother who takes responsibility for herself and the child

• be able to live the parentingstyle you long for and that you (might) hear the call in your heart

• heal yourself further on that way

• be proud of your decisions and experiences and feel that guidance and purpose in you life

But you know what? Initiation is never a gentle fluffy disney-like process, where you get your wishes fullfilled only by asking. Initiation always brings you to your limits. And BEYOND. Thats what it does. And that always need some effort and it always will call the fears. But the fears cannot stop you from birthing your child. But they can stop you – if you allow them – from experiencing that profound empowering miracle in it that will have a serious impact on your life.

And you can simply decide to commit to take the chance, to be fully initiated by the universe and open up to your powers. And you don´t have to do this alone.

You can start today. Now.

Even if you you are trying to conceive and are not pregnant yet.

 

* The best possible mother means that you will open up to be the (best) mother that you can be. That´s nothing to compare with others but its something to feel inside.

Painless Childbirth

Part One: Without pain … is it possible?

Yes – painless childbirth IS possible. But there are several „buts“.

I myself experienced a painless childbirth. I loved it – it was the best thing I ever experienced so far and I really wish every woman can birth without pain.

But.

I think there is no way you can be 100% sure, that doing xyz will make your birth painless. There is no easy 100% proofed way. (This doesn mean that programms and workshops doesnt work – it only means they wont work automatically)

Mental anchor during birth: Your Birth-Collage

During birth it is helpful to have a mental anchor. Something you can look at or touch that gives you strength and reminds you of the important things. Something that reminds you of the wisdom that you collected before you went into labor as part of your preparation for the birth of your child.

The birth poster, or birth map, is a collection of short encouraging and helpful wisdoms: pleasant to look at, with pictures and if possible with your own style. You can use them wherever you give birth and give your hospital surrounding a personal touch.

It is important, that you like it and that it agrees with you on all levels or else it won’t be of any use. It is a gimmick, a little helpful tool but by no means a must.
It is fun to make such a poster. And it is guaranteed a one of a kind memory piece. The time you spent making it is plain birth preparation time. You are relaxed, you open up positively to the subject birth and you work creatively with it.

This is how you do it:
