BirthWise- A Childbirth and Motherhood Preparation
Course - July
With birth worker and Yoga Therapist and Morning Light
teacher; Jaz Bashford
We are extremely fortunate to have birth worker and Yoga Therapist,
Jaz Bashford not only offering weekly
Pregnancy Yoga classes at the Morning Light studio, helping you
prepare physically and mentally for birth; but also now regularly
offering her BirthWise Childbirth Preparation course.
If you are aiming for a vaginal birth that will leave you
feeling positive and empowered and you’re also seeking an easier
recovery from birth; both physically and mentally; then this course
will give you the hands-on tools and knowledge to help you achieve
this.
Combining both ancient and modern birth wisdom; this course makes
sure we are preparing the body, the mind and the Nervous System for
childbirth: which all play vital roles in allowing physiological
birth to progress and you to best manage the physical and emotional
intensity of the childbirth process.
We’ll be deep-diving into physiological childbirth; what can get in
the way of it; and the practical steps both you and your birth
support person(s) can take to give you the optimal chance at having
a vaginal birth of your baby. We’ll also be learning how to prepare
for all types of birth and interventions; so you can still feel
positive and empowered about your baby’s arrival into
this world, no matter the road to their arrival.
Who is this course for?
Women who are interested in seeking a vaginal birth and getting the
tools and
knowledge to support them in achieving this
Women who want to dive deeper into preparing themselves for the
(re)adaption into
Motherhood
Women who want to better prepare for a range of birth experiences,
not just Plan A
Women that want to provide their birth support person(s) with the
tools they need to be
able to support, coach and advocate for them in childbirth
What we’ll cover:
Understanding physiological birth ; what your body and hormones do
to allow birth to progress; how this can often be misinterpreted;
and what you can do to give yourself the most optimal chance of
allowing birth to continue progressing naturally. We’ll learn
allabout interventions; when and how to consider using them and how
to Birth Map to best support your preferred birth outcome; but also
adapt to using interventions when needed; that still means you feel
positive and empowered about your childbirth experience.
How to prepare your body for birth: focusing on the theory of
Optimal Maternal and Fetal Positioning and what you can be doing to
encourage and support this for the support of vaginal delivery and
more comfort during pregnancy and childbirth. A Yoga- based
sequence is taught to you that you can use specifically to support
this.
How to manage and integrate pain in childbirth: learning the theory
behind why we feel pain and what we can do to therefore change how
we feel pain. In the why part of this course we will take some time
to reflect on our own behaviours and beliefs and how these may
influence the pain dynamic in childbirth. You’ll learn how your
birth support person(s) can provide tailored support based on this.
We will then cover a whole range of practical tools you can use
during childbirth to better integrate pain; including specific
Yoga-based breathing techniques; visualisations; soundwork; energy
work; and specific tools for supporting the management of anxiety.
We also explore the use of the body from an Active Birth and
Physiotherapy lens to better integrate intensity and support OFT;
practising specific movements and positions to use in
childbirth.
How to navigate physiological birth within the modern medical
system: working with your care providers and your birth support
person(s) to get a birth outcome that leaves you feeling positive
and empowered; even when it’s a different birth from your
ideal birth experience. Why and how Birth Mapping is essential to
helping you achieve this; and what to consider when working through
your Birth Map with your care providers; prior to and during
childbirth
How to prepare your birth support person(s) in their role for your
baby's birth: a range of hands on, practical tools that they can
use to offer physical, emotional and energetic support to you and
also to be able to confidently play the role of advocate and
decision maker as and when required
Course Format
This is a flexi-course; meaning you can choose to join for 1 or 2
days, with or without your birth support person present for Day
2.
Day 1 is the pregnant mamas-only day - focussed
more on preparing your body and mind for childbirth and the
specific tools you can personally use to manage the intensity and
changing circumstances of childbirth
Day 2 is more focussed on what your birth support
person(s) can be doing to support you; giving them a range of tools
to support you during childbirth; as well as deep-diving into
understanding the physiology of childbirth, interventions and their
considerations; the current landscape of birthing within the
medical system and utilising a Birth Map to support this.
