Mother (or parent) Blessings

In a culture where we often have baby showers where material gifts are given, decorations and food organized, guessing games maybe played, but uncertainty permeates what is to come... Where birth and postpartum are severely underprepared for (50% of mothers are diagnosed with depression in the first 2 years of their baby's life) and fear can creep in closer to baby's arrival.. I know that Mother Blessings can be far more nourishing, deeper and more meaningful, richer and the effects longer lasting. 

I'm so passionate about honouring the transition to parenthood, and a Blessing is one way to really nourish and support a parent-to-be as they head into birth and postpartum. Facilitating Mother (or parent) Blessings is something I LOVE doing, and I'd be honoured to work with you to create something truly nourishing.                       to talk about what you'd like!

Blessings!

At a time that a pregnant person nears the birth portal, somewhere in the 3rd trimester, a Mother Blessing is a beautiful, nourishing, celebratory and yet sacred gathering. Women, sisters, other families, friends; whoever you choose to surround you in this ceremony will nourish and honour you. We share our hopes and our blessings with you, showering you with love and care, and we plant the seeds for postpartum - that you are held, loved, supported and cared for practically and emotionally with these people who care for you being present for you on this day and into the future.

This is a ceremony of nourishment; rich with spoken blessings and encouragement, emotional holding and physical nurturing.

A soul nourishing experience... an opportunity to surrender, be vulnerable and held by gorgeous women in my village. Alyssa held the space so beautifully, gently guiding our circle with so much love and care. My heart is full with the strength and love of my sisters carrying me forward into the birth portal.

Thank you Alyssa! Words cannot describe how grateful I am for you, for facilitating my Mother's Blessing Ceremony and for your care and support throughout the process. A truly beautiful and gentle soul you are, born to do this kind of work.
