Embodied Initiations
Insights and observations on the sacred nature of fertility, pregnancy, birth, loss and motherhood
There & Back Again
There are many images, archetypes and metaphors for birth. Many of which are the symbols of an initiation or a rite of passage. Archetypes are expressions of universal human experiences, like "maiden, mother and crone." They are a simple image or word that is shorthand for an experience that is in many ways beyond words. Like drawing a picture of feelings.
Looking for an affirming way to prepare for birth?
I present to you a set of 5 birth mantras, each accompanied by a description of how to use it or some more information about its meaning, and a 2-3 minute audio birth affirmation. The mantra is short and simple. You can say it over and over and over. The affirmation takes you deeper into the possibilities behind the mantra.
