Birth and early motherhood are inherently physical experiences. It’s vital you care for your body, whilst giving birth and caring for your baby. The way you give birth is influenced by your physiology, your hormones, how safe you feel, the ability of your body to let go of tension, and the way you move your body. The way you give birth will impact your postpartum experience and well beyond into motherhood.

Set yourself up to feel respected, supported and held during birth.

Bring awe and reverence to your incredible birthing body.

Feel nurtured and nourished as you journey into motherhood.

We want you to leave birth with a healthy baby, as a healthy mama, with a body that heals, and a very full heart.

Your Incredible Birthing Body workshop will help you learn what needs to happen in your body for your baby to be born. And what you can do to best support the birth process, for your body and your baby.

Taught by Sue Lee and Sophie Jeffries - two doulas, bodyworkers, movement professionals, birth nerds, and fierce supporters of Mothers.
