Pregnancy and Birth - The Awakened Woman

 ‘As women we are extraordinarily powerful. Our power lies in our intuition and inner strength. 

Every obstacle, every challenge, opens us one step further if we face it, into our awareness and our love. 

We have the strength and the power to move mountains, to create rivers and to heal the world. 

It is our time to open to our selves and to complete our work’ - Suraj Khalsa.

Whether you want to be a mother, are a mother, or have no concept of being a mother, the teachings around pregnancy and birth are a mirror for your life journey as a woman. 

It is a journey of healing from your own birth, your mother’s birth, and the ancestral patterns imprinted in the womb.  

The healing is reflected forward for your family, your children, your sense of self as a woman and your relationships.

This course is for every woman. As we learn about pregnancy and birth and the cycle of life for the woman we understand the process of conception, birthing and early childhood.

Nurturing a soul, even before a mother conceives, and then bringing this high divine energy into your pregnancy and through the first three years of your child’s life, this is the gift of being a woman. We nurture our world and the children of humanity’s future.

Preparation for pregnancy, conception, the first 120 days of pregnancy

Having a baby is one of the most important decisions we make in our life.

The parents influence the child even before conception.

We will explore the natural power of pregnancy and birth with the support of Kundalini Yoga and the tools you need to have a happy and healthy pregnancy so that you make conscious choices about what is best for you and your baby.

This module teaches you

• the relationship with yourself and the divine feminine within you
• the relationship with your partner
• how to prepare for pregnancy, to relax, to have a healthy body, mind and spirit
• how to make love to conceive a healthy baby
• the many changes you go through in the first four months
• ways to stabilise your mood, thoughts, and emotions to move beyond fear, to feel your strength, power and natural grace

Through the rebirthing techniques of Kundalini Yoga we heal past wounds and old beliefs, memories from your birthing, from being in the womb of your mother and early childhood.

These old belief patterns may block you from being able to conceive a baby.

Preparing to be a mother, 120 days to birth, preparation for birth, birthing

Being pregnant and giving birth is a natural state, the most natural state of being. It may be the most transforming and empowering experience of a woman’s life. If the mother fully accepts and loves herself and she unites with her body, mind and spirit, she will love the baby into existence.

Through the practices of yoga, meditation, awareness, walking and breath, she will be naturally guided to prepare for the birth of the baby.

This module includes

• how to nurture yourself and your baby in the womb

-  intimacy during pregnancy

• Yogic teachings to prepare for birthing
• The power of the breath to connect to our inner strength and wisdom
• Basic anatomy of birthing
• Yogic care for women during birthing
• Natural Birth or Caesarian

We will learn why natural birth creates an ideal bonding between the baby and mother and prepares a child for life’s challenges.

Also the differences between natural birth and C Section and the care needed to support a caesarian baby to grow beyond the challenges of a caesarian birth.

The mother is the first teacher. The lessons begin in the womb.

The consciousness of the mother is very important. Each word we speak during pregnancy, every thought, every feeling, every experience, provides the foundation, the vibration from which the body and psyche of the child is formed.
