When Birth Trauma Happens- Time to Release Yourself: A Yoga Journey

This workshop would be beneficial for anyone who has experienced trauma, but is geared towards birth trauma. Unfortunately, there is so much shame and guilt when birth doesn’t go as planned. I felt alone and isolated when it happened to me and I had so much guilt afterwards and the inability to talk about it.

I hope that I can be that beacon of light for women that may be secretly struggling; and give them a safe place to start the healing process, by helping them to start to unload the heavy burden of carrying birth trauma alone.

Most of my workshops are created with the intention of acknowledging and releasing trauma. It can be a more thorough experience if the participant is open and willing; however if they are not, it is still an informative and restorative practice. This practice can help create trust within oneself and help set up building blocks for future opportunities to heal and release old wounds.
