Belly Blessings & Sealing Ceremonies
Childbirth is an experience in a woman’s life that holds the power to transform her forever. Passing through these powerful gates – in her own way – remembering all the generations of women who walk with her… She is never alone.” –Suzanne Arms
A Belly Blessing is a beautiful alternative to a baby shower that focuses on honoring the mother and her journey through birth and into motherhood (although you can always have a baby shower too!).
The purpose of a Belly Blessing is to empower the pregnant woman and help her build confidence and work through worries and fears as she prepares of this sacred rite of passage.
A Sealing Ceremony helps integrate your birth experience and your new identity as a mother
Throughout pregnancy, labour and birth, we as women focus on opening – physically, emotionally and spiritually. While this act of opening is essential to birth, it can leave birthing women feeling raw and vulnerable. Sealing ceremonies are about closing or ‘sealing’ the body, mind and spirit. It can provide a healing and serene space for you to feel nurtured and whole after such an earth shattering transformation.
Belly Binding is an ancient Malaysian method to support postpartum healing.
Belly Binding involves wrapping the postpartum mother’s abdomen in a long narrow piece of muslin or light weight cloth. Wrapping the belly is an effective and important part of a mother’s recovery that aids the body to shrink and recover in a shorter time period, normally 6 to 8 weeks.
