“Reiki energy is pure love, holding us in a container where we can release the things that block the Great Bright Light of our True Self, and to deeply engage a state of balance and wholeness—a state we call “healing.” Imagine growing and raising a child inside of such a container…”

— Michaela Daystar

Resilient & Resourced Childbirth with Reiki puts the power and foundational practices of the system of Reiki in your hands to deeply support you during pregnancy, birth and throughout your parenting journey.

Whether you plan a home or hospital birth, Reiki—a Japanese energy healing art—will be a trusted and powerful ally for you and your birth supporters. NOTE: You can take this class whether you are new to Reiki or already experienced, and as a birthing person, family support or professional birthworker.

In this class you will learn three foundational practices of the system of Reiki from it’s Japanese origins, with the emphasis on the use of Reiki during pregnancy, birth and to support your growing child. We will apply these practices in several ways that specifically support you to:

• Help form a deep energetic connection with the baby, for profound early bonding between unborn baby and family;

• Bring deep relaxation into the core of your being, to ease pain and discomfort during pregnancy, delivery and postpartum, and help adjust to the ever-changing nature of pregnancy; 

• Prepare the body and spirit for the birthing process for both baby and family;

• *Birthing partners and birthworkers will learn practices for sharing Reiki with the birthing parent, baby and themselves throughout the birthing process.

• Birthworkers will leave with practices you can teach your clients to support them in the ways described above.

*It is recommended that a birth supporter take this class with you, if possible, to strengthen their role in the birth. To support access for birthing partners, we offer a discount when you register together.

FORMAT: This class is held on-line over Zoom.
