Ever feel like the world just keeps on getting more crazy and your path through it keeps on getting harder? 

I understand that feeling. Here’s how it might be for you...

You had high hopes and dreams for the birth of your child. You wanted that beautiful connection that is so special between mother and child and an amazing experience of birth – the rite of passage where you feel strong and ready to take on the world. But the reality is that you are more often exhausted and overwhelmed and under that you are scared. Really scared.  Scared you will mess up, possibly again, and have to live through more trauma, damage the relationship with your child right from the outset.  You feel like you are falling short of the amazing mother that you wanted to be and that you dreamed of for so long, that you are failing, before you’ve even got going properly. The widening gap between those dreams and your reality is wearing you down, you feel resigned, to another traumatic birth, or to feeling inadequate and a failure as your child struggles, and it is breaking your heart a little more every day.

You would like a road map but there doesn’t seem to be one. Everyone else has an opinion about what you should do but they don’t really seem to be listening to what matters to you. You end up feeling at best side-lined and frustrated and at worst bullied and coerced into a different path than the one that is calling you.

None of this is your fault though.   It is the outcome of generations and generations of oppression of women with the accumulated trauma getting passed down from mother to child over and over again.  It is no wonder this birth thing feels so scary and risky to you. With hundreds of years of diminishing the importance of women’s roles and wisdom, demolishing their support networks and destroying their belief in their body, it is no surprise that you feel alone,  exhausted and overwhelmed so much of the time.  It is hard to feel confident in your decisions and connected to your baby against this history.  The good news is that history doesn’t have to repeat itself and you can break this cycle.  And it begins with looking at how you were born.

To reclaim your position at the centre of your experience as you become a mother, or to fully support someone to achieve that, then how you were born is the essential missing factor you have overlooked. Exploring and healing this experience and the generations of handed down trauma is the missing link that I want to help you with.

You most likely don’t remember being born of course, But your body remembers. What happened to you is stored in your body. It is why it is reacting so strongly now. Remember you were that baby once too, a fresh, new soul with a bright path ahead, hopes and dreams to fulfil, and the desire to build a better world.  Many of your current challenges, and fears have been carried by you since your time in the womb, since your very first days on the planet, and some have been passed down to you across generations, still locked in your body, and causing you the problems that brought you here.  Exploring and healing these hidden factors in your history is the essential work that I always do with all of my private clients and I want to offer you a taste of this.  I have created a free work book - Explore Your Own Birth Experience. - It is designed to support you to gently reflect on how you were born and start you on your path to healing any wounded parts you find.
