Shift Your Mindset on Labor and Delivery with Ashley Stachon

  • Metta Mama San Rafael 835 4th Street, Suite C San Rafael, CA 94901 (map)

For many of us, the only labor images or videos we have seen are in movies and tv shows. The woman is in pain and she is yelling about how much she despises her partner because he “got” her pregnant. Usually, she is on her back and immediately went from no contractions to full-on labor. Oh, and her water broke and ruined her new shoes. This is not representative of what labor is like (only 15% of women have their bags broken before labor begins) And labor does not have to be a scary, painful, horrible experience. This workshop will empower you to make your labor and delivery what you want it to be. In this workshop you will learn: 


  • What exactly happens to your body when you go into labor and how proper alignment of your pelvis can help a baby be delivered with fewer interventions.

  • Strategies to soften the body and mind in order to let go and help get labor started when the time comes.

  • How to strengthen the muscles that will assist in pushing the baby out.

  • Kundalini “keep up” exercises to help train your mind for the overwhelm and exhaustion you will experience during surges.

  • Mental strategies to take your focus away from the intensity of your surges.

  • Meditations that will shift your mindset from a place of scarcity to abundance.

  • How to set up your hospital room so it feels more intimate and personal.

  • Tips on how to nourish your body and some recipes to support you after the baby is born. 

  • Connection with other pregnant mama’s.

Review from a previous session:

"Ashley was a great guide making the group feel comfortable to share their stories. It was a great environment where I learned so much about labor and delivery and tips on how to make the experience better. I myself was able to release my own fears I was struggling with and came out feeling more prepared for my baby’s birth. Ashley is a wealth of knowledge  regarding pregnancy, the body, labor, and delivery. I highly recommend her classes!" - Heather Abramson.
