Feeling the edges of our experience can leave us feeling unmoored in many ways. But what these times often ask of us is not how to get to the other side, but how to hold steady where we are.
KT’s Story
“if I had to describe my first birth in one word, it would be fast.””’
But fast doesn’t always mean easy.
This is a story about what happens when birth feels like it’s happening to you — and what becomes possible when it starts to feel like something you’re part of.

Hypnosis
Hypnobirthing is not…being in a trance or someone waving incense at your vagina. This post is all about clearing up some of the most common misconceptions that relate to hypnosis in general and what hypnobirthing is really all about.

Relaxation
Relaxation is releasing the hold on the moment to find ease in the body - so that the flow of birth to take over.
