mindful pregnancy relaxation circles
A weekly retreat for your mind and soul from the comfort of your home
breathe, pause and connect
Is this you?
- Pregnant and feeling anxious and worried all the time?
- Want to slow down and savor the pregnancy but feel like the days are just zooming by?
- Feeling disconnected with baby and haven't formed a bond yet?
- Want to prioritize emotional wellbeing for the benefit of you and baby?
Mindfulness practice has been documented to decrease stress,
improve sleep and eating habits and foster connection
between mother and baby in pregnancy.
Real self care for the mind and soul begins here
Anxiety and stress in pregnancy have been known to result in unfavorable maternal and baby outcomes in birth and postpartum.
Even as early as a few months old inside the womb, babies already sense the emotional state of their mother and begin to respond to it.
These early memories and impressions from a baby’s womb life shape their foundational response patterns.
It’s never too late to prioritize yourself and your baby.
Let today be the day you choose calm and peace for you and baby.
Your unborn child is a feeling, remembering, aware being inside your womb.
How powerful you are to be able to shape your unborn child’s emotional well being. You are a force for all things good and positive in your baby’s life.
Groundbreaking research in prenatal and fetal psychology has shown us that your unborn baby is a conscious, emotional human being. From about 6 months of pregnancy onwards, the fetus can see, hear, experience, taste, learn and feel from inside the womb! The attitudes and expectations that your child will ultimately carry through with them in their lifetime begin to take shape in-utero. As the mother, your thoughts and tools are powerful tools. This is not to put more pressure and guilt on you for the fleeting thoughts of anxiety, worry, stress or sadness you may experience through this pregnancy.
On the contrary, it is an invitation to you to discover just what a force for positivity you can be in your child’s life starting from today. You don’t have to wait till they’re born to begin parenting.
In addition to the nutritious food you eat and the exercise you do for the baby’s physical growth and development, the warm, nurturing, responsive, enriching environment you provide to your baby will ensure that the foundation for lifelong emotional and mental well being and health is laid in the womb.
Time and again, research studies have shown that unborn babies are affected by the physiological and emotional states of the mother as well as changes in their surroundings.
Taking care of your emotional and mental well-being automatically takes care of your unborn baby's
You CAN be more present, more calm, more focused, more available, more patient, more energetic, more filled up.
Community & Connection
Whether we realize it or not, our bodies and minds are changing every day as they prepare for birth and motherhood.
Welcoming change can be sometimes challenging. It's hard to know where to begin. But growth and transformation is inevitable in pregnancy - not just for you, but for your baby as well.
I want to offer you an opportunity to honor the journey you are on - to pause, reflect and savor the moments that are so fleeting and yet so significant. I want to invite you to flex your self-care muscles, build your emotional well being toolkit, release fears and pre conditioned scripts you may be carrying with you and give the most nurturing start to your baby's life, starting from inside the womb.
I created the Mindful Pregnancy Relaxation Circle to guide you through the ways to prepare your mind, body & soul for birth and beyond. Ritual, repetition and relaxation are sacred practices that help you awaken awareness and deepen connection - a time of uninterrupted focus, attention and reflection for yourself and baby. The Circles are carefully crafted to be uplifting, supportive spaces to come as you are, fill your cup and take what you need from them each week.
