8 WEEK PREGNANCY JOURNEY
Your JOURNEY toward motherhood begins the moment you even think about wanting to have a baby… If you are PREGNANT and want to connect with other women in sisterhood and discuss pertinent issues then you NEED to come to a Sacred Pregnancy class. The Pregnancy Journey classes happen early on in your pregnancy: through meditation, creative expression, journaling, sharing and more, we'll explore the physical and emotional aspects of the pregnancy journey over eight weeks. |
4 WEEK BIRTH JOURNEY
As you embark on your journey toward motherhood, come connect with a circle of pregnant couples in a sacred space devoted to this unique and powerful time in your life... The last weeks of pregnancy are a time to connect deeply with your partner and prepare for a peaceful, empowered birth experience. This four week course guides you in the rite of passage from maiden to mother. |
Week 1: Sacred Space. We’ll explore creating sacred
space at home; practice meditation and discuss the benefits of journaling; and craft a collage candle. Week 2: Connection and Expectations. Delve into your connection to yourself, the baby, and the pregnancy experience; discuss your pregnancy expectations; and create a "mother wisdom" painting. Week 3: Food and Body Image. We’ll focus on cravings, mindful eating, body changes, and challenges. You’ll create menu cards, declare a personal song, and experience bare-belly dancing! Week 4: Relationships and Romance. Bring your partner to class for a discussion of relationship shifts, romance, and keeping the fire lit! You and your partner will create "heart art" together. Week 5: Fears. The circle will hold space to discuss our fears relating to pregnancy, birth, and motherhood. You will "burn" your fears and collaborate on a group empowerment silk painting. Week 6: Forgiveness. Find the strength to forgive past hurts and allow emotional space to open up before the baby comes. Our creative project will be a metaphor for ripping free and binding your power with a "spirit stick." Week 7: Honoring. We’ll discuss emotional nesting, gender bias, and mother blessings; practice personal power blessings; and experience an essential oils soak. Week 8: Sisterhood. The last week is spent in a sisterhood circle in deep reflection, integrating the experiences we’ve shared together and looking forward to the next step of our journey. |

your birthing body and create a personal visualization and "beauty way" birth plan. Week 2: Surrender.

Learn essential information about the labor journey, and practice the LOVE labor method. Week 4: Rite of Passage. We'll discuss rites of passage; "Mother Roasting", and mother wisdom, and you'll learn how to make an herbal sitz bath. |
