Join us for a 4-week childbirth education course in person at the Ahava Collective Studio.

In this class you will learn:

• How to feel safe and held in any location that labor and birth take place

• Tools and practices to embody your inherited power as a birthing person

• Just enough about the process of birth for you to trust birth. To trust pregnancy. To trust your body. To trust your intuition

• The innate wildness inherent in your pregnant and birthing body. This wildness is what makes birth something that we were literally born to do. Not in the way that it is your destiny or duty as a person with a uterus, but in a way that is physiologically inherent to your anatomy.

• The ways that being civilized, socialized humans impacts the natural blueprint of birth. And what you can do about that!

• The psychological shift in consciousness that occurs in labor and how to practice being in this numinous state

• The phases of initiation that are inherent in birth and how to use those phases for an evolutionary experience

• Practical tools for comfort, safety and ease through labor

• How to live your birth plan every day

In this class you will:

• Learn the basics of birth physiology and anatomy

• Practice tools for moving through labor, birth and the first few hours of bonding

• Understand how your nervous system works during labor and birth

• Connect with your intuition and deepen your sense of Self

• Prepare yourself for shifts of consciousness needed in birth and mothering

Class is 4 weeks of 3-hr classes. We meet April 30, May 7, May 13 and May 21, 1-4pm.
