Join Becky for a 4-week Beginner’s Yoga Series designed to help you understand the basics of yoga and move safely in your body.
A productive labor begins when your body feels safe. When you feel supported, grounded, and regulated, your nervous system can shift out of fight-or-flight and into the parasympathetic state where labor hormones flow more efficiently. This sense of safety allows the body to soften, the pelvis to open, and contractions to work with you rather than against you.
This workshop is designed to help you feel at home in your body, understand what is happening physiologically, and learn how to regulate your nervous system so labor can unfold with more ease, confidence, and trust. You will be empowered to make your labor and delivery an experience that aligns with your values, your body, and your vision. You’ll learn how to recognize and respond to the signals your body sends to your brain, strengthening your connection to intuition and your body’s innate intelligence so you can make informed, embodied choices during labor.
Join us for a monthly gathering where we create a sanctuary of healing for those touched by cancer. Each session features gentle movement, guided imagery, and hands-on Reiki healing—all set to the serene sounds of live crystal bowls.
