Birth is a time to be in your body, not your mind and your breath can help you get there
My views on birth are simple. People spend years planning big life events - weddings, engagements you name it but with birth people rock up to a hospital and see what happens. For birth, you can never have a plan, only a preference. You can never know with one hundred percent certainty how, where or when it’s going to happen. The one thing you do know is that your breath will be with you - it’s simply your choice whether you use it consciously or not.
Speaking from experience, the benefits of breathwork during a moment so pure, so natural and so life changing in a woman’s story, can be unreal. This is the reason I created Breathwork For Birth - a two hour program, with recordings and resources included to be used on the big day.
