Birth Story Medicine Sessions
Finding the medicine in your birth story
Birth Story Medicine® Listening is a unique, structured process to help you process unresolved birth trauma.
“By divesting from false myths about yourself, you’re moving away from denial and victimhood to become a sovereign director of your life.”
— Pixie Lighthorse
A ritual of return
Your birth story is a pivotal narrative that you weave on your postpartum return. Without proper tending to, your story may distort into judgments and beliefs about yourself that can negatively impact your life, your relationships, and your parenting. The narrative you wove is often more impactful than the events themselves.
Is there something bothering you about your pregnancy, birth, or postpartum experience? Does something feel unresolved? Are there parts of your story that you can’t stop thinking about, try to avoid thinking about, &/or feel that you can’t talk about? Was there a moment that left you feeling shocked, confused, betrayed, or ashamed?
Birth Story Medicine® sessions, developed by Pam England, creator of Birthing from Within and author of Ancient Map for Modern Birth, are not merely a re-telling or de-briefing. They get to the heart of the assumptions, meaning, and beliefs you are taking from your birth story and what you believe that means about yourself. Although we can’t change the events and occurrences, we can examine and transform our beliefs and assumptions.
