"I reconnected to my mothering instinct after losing it with the epidural."

“I felt like I’d lost my intuitive, mothering, instinctual energy in the hospital [when I gave birth]. I hadn’t wanted the epidural because I knew it can take that energy out of balance, and it made me feel disconnected, fearful, and tense. Since the birth, I hadn’t been able to sleep, I’ve been in pain, and I had irrational fears about my baby’s safety. 

Since the session, it’s been magic. I feel like I reconnected with this instinctual, earthy part of myself that I had so strongly felt all the pregnancy. I feel plugged back in. I can feel the visualization we did of the umbilical cord working; it’s a better integration of the birth experience and how I want to look at it. It makes me cry just thinking about it because I can take the power back and write my own story. This is something that I always tell my clients, but I needed to hear that too. It just makes all of the difference. 

Ever since, things have started to flow much more in every way. I was having a tough time digesting and sleeping, but now my body physically and symbolically let things go. I now feel this immense energy rooting down to the earth and how it was fueling me and connecting me to Mother Earth and mother energy in general. 

Last night was so different [from the past few days since the birth]. The breastfeeding went so much better, he’s been latching onto the left side, which he normally struggles with, and he’s drinking much more. He slept next to me instead of on top of me, which is great because I can’t sleep on my back right now. I was able to sleep more through the night, and I feel less worried about him. I still have some fears, but it took the edge off, which is a big relief. I have a new mantra now that I can use to keep telling myself that my baby is safe - to have an alternative thought whenever these fears are coming up so that I can practice thinking about something else. That is so beautiful.

You work magic. You keep saying “it’s you and your intuition,” but my intuition wouldn’t have done that by itself. It did that because you held the space and facilitated. You have such a gift. I’m so blown away every time we meet but yesterday you blew my socks off. The way that you delivered the session, I could feel how you were working in my energetic body. I have never experienced something like that ever before. It didn’t feel intrusive or weird. It was such a natural thing, like that’s normal human behavior and how we should be connected. You are someone who has mastered that already. I’m so impressed, thankful, and impacted in the best possible way. Thank you so much!”
