I would like to share a few beliefs
and visions that I hold to help you have a sense of
my perspective and my work.
In looking at the big picture, I believe that each
of us is living a life that is part of an unending
spiritual journey. We are spiritual beings that have
chosen to learn, grow and heal by our experience of
being human in this moment. Each of us is on a hero's
journey--separating from our Divine Source with intention
to find our way home again while uncovering the rich
treasures of the Self.
Our world and many of our birthing practices are a reflection
of the degree to which we have separated from ourselves,
others, the physical earth and from our Divine Connection.
I believe we have rounded the bend. We are now re-awakening
and remembering more of who we are and our truer self as
spiritual beings in human experience. We are on our way
home.
The thirst for spirit and soul, the
thirst for deeper and more profound connection with
the Divine and with ourselves is growing. With this, our
ways of welcoming consciousness from spirit to human
experience are now ready to evolve. We
are ready to reach beyond what we have known until now.
The name Wondrous Beginnings celebrates
this evolution. The womb of new possibilities. The womb
of reconnection. THE SACRED WOMB.
My broad background in psychology,
research, education and spirituality brings together
many ways of knowing and experiencing–from the
very physical nursing experiences, the mental/emotional
layers from counseling psychology, to the spiritual
dimension through my metaphysical and spiritual practice.
In that way, these have forged a synergy of perspectives,
forming my integrated perspective honoring the spectrum
of experience and ways of being.
The transformational healing I have seen with babies and
families brings so much hope and joy, so many new horizons
of reconnection and possibility for all. The name Wondrous
Beginnings celebrates and holds this dear.
Wondrous Beginnings
On a broader level, Wondrous
Beginnings embodies
several of my lifework goals.
Our awareness of the natural connection
with the spirit world and with the intrinsic continuity
between our physical word and spirit world has been
limited for so long in our western culture.
From the ancient wisdoms still alive
in some native cultures to the latest research in prenatal
and perinatal psychology, we understand that how we
are welcomed during the transition from the world of
spirit to our physical world has a profound influence
on the rest of our lives. My lifework focuses on incarnation – the
process of coming from spirit into human experience–to
provide the most supportive, nurturing, healing experience
possible. I want to work with parents and those caring
for prenates and babies as they enter this new world.
We are creating a world where we
can help those coming in to stay more connected to
themselves, their essence, their spirit and soul and
become even more of who they can be during their lifetime.
And most of all, we are providing a world where they
can truly love themselves. If the
new and young ones need some assistance, we want to help
in their healing, as well.
In my work with adults, I help them identify and work
with life patterns set in motion during the prenatal
and perinatal period. With this recognition and utilizing
energy psychology tools we focus to them transform them
from difficult or painful patterns into life-enhancing
ones. Thus, bringing more coherent and fulfilling relationships
within themselves, with others, and with the Divine.
What Babies Are Teaching Us I
often include What
Babies Are Teaching Us in
the title of my presentations and publications. Babies
and children have been my greatest teachers. I just had
to learn to open to expanded possibilities of what they
were teaching me and they showed me more than I could
have imagined was possible. In their natural way of
being, they call us to remember more of who we are.
Being with Babies
So much of the evolution in welcoming consciousness from
spirit to human experience is in our presence, our actual
ways of BEING ourselves and BEING WITH prenates
and babies. In the prenatal and birth therapy babies teach
us amazingly how/what/when they need to heal and to flourish
in ways we haven't considered possible before. The time
is here. What was only a possibility in the past is now
an actuality.
It is more than talking to your baby,
or stimulating your baby's brain growth. It is more
than good nutrition and childbirth preparation. It
is even more than bonding with your baby. All these
are beautiful and important aspects and expressions
of love and caring. Now there is more. There is a foundational
way of BEING
with BABIES that
is part of the evolution.
Welcome.
