About the course:

Before Birth is a Mindful Wellbeing and positive birth preparation course for expectant mothers / birthing parents.

You will be guided to tune inwards, slow down and connect with yourself and baby as well as exploring your expectations, hopes and fears as you make the transition into parenthood (whether your first or subsequent baby).

Sessions include a combination of journaling, mindfulness, guided relaxations breathwork, wellbeing discussions, affirmations and gratitude circle.

Sessions are held over 6 weeks and act as a wellbeing toolkit. Focusing on your mental well-being, offering support, ideas and questions to build resilience, cope with and accept the challenges, learn to trust in your instincts and reach out for help when required.

Emotions not only have an impact on an expectant parent, but also on baby in utero too. As such, it is so important that we try to manage and understand our thoughts and feelings with kindness, whilst finding tools to support healthy emotional regulation.

A huge part of managing our emotions during pregnancy and as a new parent is having a tribe of other parents to share with and to feel validated.

Whether this is your first baby or subsequent, by coming along to Before Birth each week you are supporting not only your health, but also the health of your baby.

Each week has a different wellbeing theme:  

1. Nurture
