~The Magic of Holding Space~✨

If someone has ever held space for you, then you know it has a quality that is incredibly subtle and hard to quantify. “What did this person do?” You may be asked. “Well, I don’t know,” you respond. “They were just there.” But in their being ‘there’ and doing ‘nothing’ something very beautiful happens—we gain a sense of peace or clarity; we feel loved and supported. And because of this person holding space for us, we feel we can move through the experience we are having instead of pushing it away—and in that moment we can feel like a profound healing is taking place.

We all need to learn how to hold space more often, whether it’s for woman in labour, a child going through emotions, yours friends, lovers, neighbours, strangers or in a healing session.

What we are doing when “we are willing to walk alongside another in whatever journey they’re on, without judging them, making them feel inadequate, trying to fix them, or trying to impact the outcome.” It is very Taoist in its essence—that in doing nothing we do everything, that in being empty we allow space to be filled by something beyond us.

In the Tao Te Ching, Lao Tzu says: “Without opening a door we can open our hearts to the world.” Indeed, while it may feel like “doing nothing,” when someone holds a space for us or vice versa, we take up our place in a chain that allows others to do the same—that allows others the opportunity for peace and clarity, the chance to feel loved and supported, and the possibility of experiencing a profound healing.

✨~DEAR NEW MUMMAS~ New Book~✨

More Than a Food Bible for New Mothers

Postpartum is a Latin term meaning ‘after childbirth’. Postpartum recovery can range from a few days to a few weeks, months or years depending on the birth itself, and the integration of becoming a mother. Postpartum is the least supported aspect of birth at present, as most of the focus is currently on fertility, conception, pregnancy, and of course, labour and birth itself.

Postpartum is the time when illnesses can arise, immunity can drop, fatigue can set in, loneliness can be felt, and of course, postpartum depression or depletion can occur.

This is a postpartum bible. Pass it on to those who will hold you in your newborn stages and ensure that it is read, reread, and then used to create edible delicacies that can sustain you in the darkest of nights and the earliest of hours to ensure that you too are nourished in your new passage as Mother.

When expecting and afterbirth many shifts occur in a woman's body. Pre and postpartum massage incorporates the aid of pillows and bolsters and sometimes a chair to keep mama and baby happy, relaxed, and comfortable.

Pregnancy and birth is a sacred time and these sessions will be honoured with gentle spiritual practices of clearing, aligning, connecting and breathing.

This massage supports the body to relax and rejuvenate with long flowing strokes that hold, stretch, wrap and nurture. This style gently massages and moves your whole body. You will be carefully draped in lush warm towels, an organic body butter mask will be applied to moisturise your precious bump, with healing sound music, and touched with nourishing pure oils. Babies in arms are always welcome to come along and be part of the experience there is no rush and we will allow extra time for their needs.

We can also arrange visits to your home if this would be more comfortable to you closer to your birthing time and postpartum.

Looking forward to creating some special times with today clients! ✨🦋🌸
