Womb Stories- A group for women healing from birth trauma

As women we hold many stories in our wombs. This group led by Mavis Gewant will use mandala, storytelling, meditation and the creative process as a way to heal our stories and create new ones.

Many women suffer trauma as the result of a difficult birth. Perhaps you were mistreated by the staff, felt a lack of support or had an unexpected outcome. In a safe and nurturing environment women will get in touch with their birth trauma and begin the healing journey. The creative process is a valuable tool for transformation, the use of sacred art, writing, guided imagery and telling our stories, will help us heal and move forward.

 Who will benefit:

v Women who are overwhelmed by their birth experience

v Women who had a c-section and want a vbac

v Women who are planning another pregnancy and want to move forward

v Women who are not planning another pregnancy and want to release sorrow in their heart

v Women who are having problems with bonding and nurturing their baby

 
This group will help you:

v Celebrate your wisdom, power and strength

v Release the energy and fear around your birth story

v Experience the power of forgiveness

v Recover trust in yourself

v Learn stress coping techniques

v Reconnect with your baby
