Embodied Birth Experience
Embodied Birth Experience
Sacred Birth Centre and Lady of Avalon
Online Training
With Freya Rose Birch
This training is a 13-week journey towards an embodied birth experience. You will gain the wisdom and embodiment you need to ecstatically birth your baby. This course is for those who desire to tell a new story about birth and liberate their lineage.
On Embodied Birth Experience, you will learn tools for creating presence during pregnancy and birth to increase connectivity with your baby and create a more euphoric experience.
Through this journey, I will give you the tools to liberate your lineage through deep womb work, whilst also healing and transforming any previous trauma you may be storing in your body, mind, womb or psyche, including birth trauma (being born and previous births).
The training is for heart-centred, soulful women who desire to align with birth as a spiritual, embodied & ecstatic experience.
Goddess Pilgrimages
Goddess Pilgrimages
A pilgrim is someone who sees life as a sacred journey, who sees the earth as a sacred home, who sees the universe as a process… We make the outer journey in order to make an inner journey. The inner landscape is shaped by the outer landscape and vice versa. Therefore, by making an journey to a holy place, we are moved to explore our inner landscape and make our journey to the inner source within.
Wise words by the inspiring Satish Kumar who in the 60’s walked from India the four corners of the nuclear world – Moscow, Paris, London and Washington.
Sacred pilgrimages are journeys of the soul, bringing us in deeper connection with ourselves and the divine. Journeying intentionally to these sacred places can bring healing into our hearts. They can awaken our soul, and help us to remember who we are, and who we once were before. Join us on one.
