"Am I crazy or is this normal in birth??" Bombing of the taboo: Mental Health and Birth

Today’s episode is a bombing of the taboo: Mental Health and Birth. We want to bring the conversation out into the light: why do some women go “crazy” during birth? How do we collectively hold space, and also demonize, the experience of loss of control? How do our trauma responses and inherited programs play out when we meet our limits, go over our edges or can’t cope with the pressure? This is a super nuanced and sensitive subject, with this episode probably being one of many we release around the brain + body + spirit process that is Birth.

Om Podcasten

Birth Heals. A podcast devoted to honoring the profound impact normal physiological birth has on women and humanity. Here we illuminate the inherent gifts of autonomous birth and we breathe life into the underground network of women working to restore birth as the central healing force on the planet. We speak to the old ways by placing women’s wisdom back in the center of the conversation; back to the focal point of the birth room, where her physiology, hormones, and animal body lead the way to spontaneous, powerful birth experiences. We merge story, science and magic as we work to shape a reality where women are held in their true nature: the gatekeepers of LIFE, the guardians of wisdom, the proliferators of peace. We’re so excited to share this space with all of you!
