Begin the morning with a check in. Where are we all this am? How was last night? Any spontaneous sharing can be expressed or dreams that need to be shared.
The morning we will dive into the metaphor of birth. How does this apply? What is it about the instinctive and physiological birth paradigm that applies to my own process of transformation?
We will explore the 'Dance of Labor'. This is a beautiful guided visualization and powerful life metaphor. We will learn how to identify where we might be in our own journey. Where are we stuck? How are we progressing. What do I need to do? How can I recognize where I am in my own labor? These are some questions that we will discuss after the exploration of this topic.
I will explain each phase, each spiral dance, and how we enter and engage these phases of birth during our own transformation.
We will bring to life this teaching as we apply it to our own personal struggles. I will share from my own experiences how I applied it and how it helped me drop deeper into my experience of life's labor pains.

Together we will explore 9 Quantum
Midwifery Principles
I will share personal accounts of
how I choose to apply these spiritual insights to my life and how it assisted
me in my process
There will be room for discussion
during the exploration of these principles
*At any time, if a member of the
group finds themselves in ‘active labor’ there will be space created for us to
hold a container so that you can journey into yourself and flow with your
labor. It is important to note, the intention of this workshop is to provide
you with insight and guiding tools so that you can use them to assist in your
process. Having said this, I understand that birth can happen at any time and
once initiated, must be allowed to flow freely. If a spontaneous labor
commences, there will be space created to drop into this realm.
1.
Quantum Midwifery – What is this? How does it
apply?
2. Undisturbed birthing paradigm principles – What is
this? How does it apply? How are we disturbing our own ‘birthing’ processes?
How are we disturbing another’s? Why is it imperative to get out of the way and
let birth happen?
3. Altered States and Transformation/Birth What are
they? A greater understanding of our hormonal blueprint and physiology. Why we
birth from altered states of reality and how to create environments that assist
in our full hormonal expression. Discussion and teaching about Love hormones,
DMT, and endorphins. How they are crucial during our transformation experience.
Brain wave patterns and their impact on the journey.
4. Being witnessed NOT watched & Holding Space –
understanding the difference. Experiencing the difference. The impact that
watching and thinking about another’s process affects the birthing experience.
This is more for care givers; however, we also must learn how to be the witness
of our own birth. How can we get out of the way of our own process? How can we
get out of the way of another’s process? Learning how to differentiate between
the two?

5. Sitting in the Fire, Rank, Power talk– What is
this about? Practices that assist in learning this skill. What does it feel
like? Personal stories that will help gain a deeper understanding about the
need for this kind of presence during the birthing process.
6. Trust the process & Follow the Labor – how this simple statement
brought me great courage. What it really means? How does it apply to you?
Moving from the mental realm into the heart and energetic realm.
7. Woundology – what does this mean? How do we feed
the wound? How can we shift from being in the story to being in the
physiological experience? Reorienting our concept of healing. Where we can get
stuck. How this profound concept has shifted my perspective globally and
personally.
12:30pm-1:00pm
LUNCH
1:00pm-3:00pm
8. Deep surrender and listening – dropping into the
abyss. Listening from our heart rather than our mind. Total presence. I will
share, from personal experience, how to notice where we are at during our
labor. How to go deeper. How to recognize resistance.
9. Transformation, Birth and Grace – You are held
in grace the entire time. The miracle and magic of birth. The transformation is
cellular. Grace is the medicine. How to recognize that there has been a
birth/that you have given birth? It is all so very normal and simple yet, oh so
complicated and complex – this is the paradox. And life just goes on!
3:00pm-3:30pm
Guided
visualization – after learning some of these new insights, we will apply them
to your own personal birthing journey. A guided meditation, during which time, you
will see yourself giving birth in an empowered way. You will see yourself
finding your power!
