24.01.2022 Thank you for the reminder this morning @kasiabourke ... I wonder if anyone else needs this reminder too? Radical self care must always be a priority for it is only when our own hearts are full and being nourished then we can be in service to those that are important to us. This is paradigm shift thinking because traditionally the role of the sacrificial mother role for others, at the extent of herself ,has been the dominant one. #bigheartedbirth #radicalselfcare #selflove #innerwork #matrescence #riteofpassage #lockdown #lifejourney #lifelesdons #pregnancypreparation #mindsetchange #postpartumsupport #positivebirth #rebirth

24.01.2022 Hello... You are magnificent ! An absolute work of art already. @breedownes_doula_photographer with @get_repost A mother is born #ididit #newmother #thismoment #babygirl #birth #birthphotography #melbournedoula #birthbecomesher

23.01.2022 To be sovereign to self and inner guidance is true freedom . It is freedom to flow with what feels right or good for the body in that moment . A sovereign birth is not reliant on a set of external circumstances or experience - a sovereign birth is the birth of a strong mother. @first_glance_photography

21.01.2022 A sovereign birth isn’t an unsupported birth - far from it! It’s a woman knowing, owning and communicating everything she needs from partner, birth support and system to feel safe , feel supported, undisturbed do that she can allow her body to do the job it is designed to do . It is owning the responsibility for your own birth and having 100% support from everyone to honour your right to birth with true freedom. Birthing your sovereignty entails doing inner work and having s...afe containers during pregnancy to express and work through your greatest fears, your stories, your pain , your apprehension and your trauma. It is being held by someone who trusts YOUR intuition and inner guidance to come to your answers and restore your own inner sanctuary. Only then can you birth free. Join my Courageous Hearts Pregnancy Circle which starts this Sunday 2pm in Zoom and let the potent magic of sitting in circle bring you to your own place of connection and calm. DM Cindy for more questions and expressions of interests.

19.01.2022 Babies and birthing mothers are working together in birth - babies nuzzle in to the hard parts of the pelvis and this increases the hormones and therefore labour progression. This is also an instinct for the mother as well , as she nuzzles in to her partner she self soothes and calms her mind... Both responsive to each other - synchronicity that will continue in their relationship long after birth. Note Mums lovely relaxed hands too. @catfancote.capturingbirth When I... arrived I could see she was fatigued. They both were. Labour had been somewhat lengthy and they were so beyond ready to meet their babe. It wasn’t time yet though - baby needed longer to inch her way down the birth canal. With each surge, mumma surrendered. She knew she could not control it. She just allowed it to wash over her like big heavy full waves crashing ashore during a wild storm. Physically exhausted, but unable to rest, she powered on. There was no way but forward. . #capturingbirth #perthbirthphotographer #labour #birth #homebirth #empoweredbirth #whynothome #childbirth #birthphotographer #perthgirlboss #thebirthfemmes See more

13.01.2022 Labour intensifies , baby moves down , pelvis opens , mouth opens. The muscles are working yet body is relaxed, mother is supported by touch! It’s hard yet she is strong and remembers to let go into surrender- she is held and the more present he is - the more she will surrender and experience the magnitude of her power.

13.01.2022 Pregnancy Circles are for willing women to be supported and connect with other pregnant women in ways that are uniquely different to your chosen birth preparation crew, your partner, family and friends. It is simple ritual or practise for connection with your baby, yourself, grounding, moving your body and creation of inner resources and possibilities of self over pregnancy for labour and birth. I am super excited to announce that I will be holding monthly pregnancy circles beginning in October. Cindy xxx More details and information in coming days but please DM me if you are interested... mark my words it will be a beautiful addition to your pregnancy journey

11.01.2022 ~Ear Ring Symbolism ~ Ear rings have always been my adornment of choice . They have flowed, big and dangly in my younger years, ebbed nearly to non existent as I entered motherhood, and they are now beginning to flow again! I touched these today and they reminded me of the feminine journey through a rite of passage, such as birth. First she descends, into the depths of self - a dark vulnerable time of introspection before she ascends, wiser, for the journey. As I ran my fing...er along the metal I was reminded of a cave - safe sanctuary and access to source/higher self/intuition over the period of descent. And the oval shape, the infinite creative energy of the womb,of course! I love a statement earring and especially love the synchrony of these arriving right at the tail end of my Embark Embodied Feminine Leadership course with the energy lovebomb Julie Tenner from @thepleasurenutritionist.

09.01.2022 All my life experiences are co-created for me to live my life purpose, learn the knowledge and wisdom I need to know to be in service to the women I work with. I create circle space experiences for pregnant women to come as they are , to unravel, to release, to share, to rediscover, to re-connect and connect with themselves, other pregnant women and their babies Cindy Fenn ~Monthly Pregnancy Circle Starts in October~... @iam.stephaniejade See more

08.01.2022 In between good ideas beauty in our children’s boredom .

07.01.2022 The statistics on birth trauma, according to Hannah Dahlen sit somewhere between 10-30% a little higher in some research and 1-10% at the extreme end of trauma such as post traumatic stress disorder so it’s common. These figures were expressed at the Birth Trauma awareness discussion live-streamed by @maternalmentalhealth2020 last week. Here was the lie down: It is common, no-one is immune, if can be subtle and/or overt - and it doesn’t discriminate. ... So how do we safegu...ard ourselves or protect ourselves in a time when we are hormonally primed to connect, trust, be open and are vulnerable. Seek out continuity of care options eg hire an IM or doula to support you over pregnancy and birth . Share and discuss your own trauma and potential areas that may crop up with a caregiver BEFORE you descend into your subconscious brain during birth. Plan for the set up of creating spaces and care that will optimise feeling of safety and comfort during labour- communicate this with caregivers . Be open and know that you can change caregiver or system of care AT ANY TIME if you feel that you are not being supported for your choices right to consent AND refuse. Know your rights and be super informed and know some basic red flags Trust yourself as the expect on your body ... Birth debriefing with a professional and being listened to about your birth experience may be helpful. Can you add to this list ????

06.01.2022 Any one feeling into this today

06.01.2022 Spring Equinox here in the Southern Hemisphere- equal light and darkness - a time to call in what you want to nurture, grow and bloom into the world. This morning I called in gratitude, abundance and feeling good in everything I do! I want to feel it in bones ! Gratitude in abundance ... to feel abundance everyday ...soak my soul in abundant and grateful energy.... To let something live like that in my life the question naturally comes to its opposite ... in order to get this energy and bring this in , what am I willing to let die ? And so it goes, to let in, there must be an equal and opposite equilibrating letting go. Let in the light , let go of the dark- both have purpose. ... See more

06.01.2022 Try this breath and tea ritual just before going to bed tonight ... The sacred space given between tea and oneself then opens up expansive awareness to our true essence Sharon Ho 1. So with that said, lovingly prepare your bedtime tea choosing your, most loved at the time, herbal tisane and the vessel that will hold your healing elixir. Pay attention to this moment, the leaves, the hot water as you pour and your general feeling in your body. 2. As you meander to your ...bedroom, hold your shoulders back, your heart forward and your head held high With each step remind yourself I have done enough. 3. While your tea is brewing (and cooling down a tad). You may like to focus on a chosen affirmation, saying it earnestly to yourself three times. Now inhale your breath through your lips like you are drinking with a straw for as long as in comfortable on the exhalation of the breath, breathe down the back of your throat, inside your spine, aiming for your perineum. You may like to stretch your throat back, hands on your chest as you breath out. 4.As you breathe out, you may like to vocalise an aaah sound either sighing or using your voice. Repeat three times ~

02.01.2022 Day 2 : Doula Training - Birth Instinct and drawing!

02.01.2022 Simple rituals ~ During my third pregnancy I did a session on Intuitive drawing ... I was so drawn to it that I continued it throughout my pregnancy ... I didn’t realise how much my heart yearned to be creative. I used it as a practise in actively releasing the self doubting or negative discourse that arose as I drew . As a thought came to consciousness I would breathe in deeply and release it to the ether. A practise I would call on in my birth. Every drawing I did that preg...nancy were spirals - my hands loved the rhythm and circular motion and how the wax oil crayon guided effortlessly over the page. I loved lighting a candle and playing music as I spiralled too . Spirals can be seen in many ancient cultures and can be symbols for the sun, life source energy , and voyage or progress toward the heart centre and growth of the soul and a flow toward more understanding. What sorts of things did you draw during pregnancy ??? @willowandwomb See more

01.01.2022 13 months ago I was bitten one morning by a spider! A significant and possibly symbolic wake up call for the spiritual journey that was to come. Also first day working with @thepleasurenutritionist Julie Tenner . I didn’t know really what I needed but I had a feeling I wanted to explore feminine energy and basically just feel more . I could barely articulate what I wanted nor what could be available to feel- I wanted more , desired more and yet I didn’t know how to attai...n it. What began that day was a voxer exchange of golden messages that I wanted to seep into my cells and neural circuitry. -Julie’s words, concepts , ideas, resonated, stretched my mind, were practical and totally left of what was mainstream culture and thinking AND that is what felt most congruent. It felt like I knew it . I healed parts of me almost instantaneously. I began to bring my shadow into the light and I remembered what it felt like to move and embody feminine energy. It was three months later that I told Julie I wanted to join her Embark Embodied Leadership course and my whole body buzzed with energy -a knowing - a full body yes that the next 6 months were going to be amazing! Julie Tenner’s Embark Embodied Leadership course has been nothing short of MAGNIFICENCE and has taught me so much: masculine/feminine polarity, holding space for women, mentoring, Feminine Embodiment practices , creating sacred circles for growth, energetic healing and evoking and moving energy through the body to name just a portion . And I realised my dreams are potent energy . Julie Tenner is the bomb - a muse worthy, magic mentor, empress of energy work and as she says she opens doors for women and let’s you swing them wide open . Today my door is wide open, clarity was curated and the journey continues . Julie Tenner thank you ... I love you, your work and the opportunity of learning from you . To the Embark women I look forward to watching you all weave your beautiful art and hearts into the world! It has been an honour and let’s all do it again some day . This message really doesn’t do what is in my heart justice - words simply cannot convey adequately ! See more
