Going through the 9 month journey of pregnancy, feeling the power of birth and becoming a parent is a unique and awe-inspiring experience.

The changes that take place, not only on a physical level but also emotionally, mentally and spiritually, can be experienced as a gentle breeze or like a whirlwind. It is not uncommon, during this very creative time, for other parts of our lives to come to the surface and wanting some attentions. These can be : Current relationships, relationship to own parents and siblings, issues around adoption, childhood memories, position in life ( study, work, income ), self- image and self-worth, grief and worries, health and well-being.

Also there is no doubt that the experience of pregnancy and birth will most intensely link us to our own creation and birth when in a conscious or unconscious way.

Research shows us that babies are conscious in the womb, that they are able to register and respond to the mother’s thoughts and feelings, that they are educable and able to make decisions about their experiences.On a deep cellular level we all remember our gestation and birth as well as taking our first breath !

We might not have access to these experiences with our ’ grown up’ conscious memory, but whatever happened in those early fundamental stages of our lives, will have had a profound impact on the way we developed our personality and chose to live our lives today.

Just take a few moments ( and a good deep breath ! ) and think about what you know about your own birth :

‘How were you and your mother treated at your birth?’

‘Was your mother supported and listened to? ‘

‘Was your father present and what was his reaction? ‘

‘Did you enter into this world in an atmosphere of fear, pain and confusion? ‘

Or…… ‘ Was there joy, calmness, love and a sense of safety and welcome? ‘

Observe your reaction to just these few simple questions and allow yourself to notice and feel what happens in your body.

If you are an expecting parent let this inspire you to make conscious and supportive decisions for the new baby arriving.

The Source Breathwork Therapy is based on a powerful and yet simple breathing technique that together with the concept of ‘ thought is creative’ can facilitate profound healing .

It is not a confrontational or dramatic style of therapy. It is gentle and supportive and adapted to the need of the individual client.

The session consists of conversation, some process-work and breathing.

The cost for a 1^1/2 - 2hr counselling session is £50.
