The Sacred Journey

Birth is a profound rite of passage during which the one giving birth encounters mystery, uncertainty, and even a loss of control. The map of the journey is not one that is linear and easily understandable by the intellectual brain. Rather, it a labyrinth comprised of a series of unexpected turns, countless inner thresholds, and unforeseen hurdles. The birthing person is pushed beyond their perceived edges into previously uncharted territory. And yet, as daunting as the task of doing The One Forbidden Thing may seem, the labyrinth - your inner map through your birthing time - shows you the way to continue forward, to keep going, until it is time to return ‘home’.

There are many who choose not to take the journey described above. But if you are here, I will be so bold as to suggest that something within you called you here. There is a voice within you, calling you, from the centre of your heart and from the depth of your belly. It is an invitation from your soul to do something that you have never before, that perhaps you have avoided, or because the challenge it presents seems overwhelming. And no matter what you do - turn away, sleep it off - The Call only gets louder and louder until you have no other choice but to do The Next Right Thing. You pack your bags, and you start your journey.

Journeys of transformation can be undertaken alone. Indeed, you will need to do the work to scale the mountains, cross the bridges, and negotiate the items you initially placed in your backpack. Most would agree, however, that for a journey like this one, it is helpful to have a soul guide of sorts - someone who has walked the road many times with others, shining the torch on the path under your feet and just ahead, and helping you to live the answer to your Heart’s Question.

This is why I created The Sacred Journey: a mentoring relationship through the 10 moons of pregnancy, where I support you to cultivate inner knowing, take on the tasks of preparation, nourish the life growing within you, and grow into the adult archetypes of the Huntress, The Love Warrior, and The Mother.

The Sacred Journey is a bespoke mentoring journey through pregnancy. Together, we explore your own Heart’s Question and how to move through your pregnancy from a place of love and conscious intention. This is realised through twice-monthly visits, either in-person or remotely, in addition to custom additional offerings such as flower essences and healing bundles with herbs and crystals.

The Sacred Journey incorporates ritual, myth, energy work, and embodiment practices as tools for inner discovery. It is both preparation and a journey its own right. Ideally, initiates enter as early in pregnancy as possible, although the journey can begin at any point. The earlier the work begins, however, the more time there is for exploration and integration.
