We believe that with the right trust, knowledge and support - any birth can be positive, however your baby makes its entrance into the world!
This course is not just about ‘learning’ but about embodying. Feeling on a deep level the sacredness, intelligence and mystery of birth and embarking on your birth journey full of excitement, confidence and faith in your body and baby’s incredible ability!
What to Expect
The course runs over 7 weeks in Lewes, usually on Friday evenings or Saturdays. Over that time we will unpack everything from childbirth in our culture to the hormones & physiology of birth, to managing curveballs and interventions, navigating the NHS system, movement in labour, mindset & breathing, the pillars of postpartum and so much more!… Here is an overview of our time together:
