Reframing Pain

This has got to be THE episode that I always get first time mums to listen to. No matter what type of birth they are planning, they need to understand the principles that Rhea teaches in this episode.  This episode without doubt belongs in our Best Of series!!  And every woman should know these principles on pain before going into their first labour.

This is light bulb going off “aha moment” kind of stuff and I am thrilled to bring this information to you.

Rhea was a joy to have on the show. So informative. So wise and such a  joy to listen to.

A blessing to the birth world and a woman of such wisdom.

I am so happy to share this important message from Rhea and I love her chosen quote..

“you don’t have to like it to do it brilliantly”  from a fellow birth worker.

Waterbirth

Yes its true – I have truly been looking forward to sharing this episode more than any other. As a 2x Waterbirther myself and knowing that I would only ever choose to birth in water given the chance again, this topic is dear to my heart. Not that I want all women to birth in water but I certainly want them to have the option available to them shall they want to.

Barbara is the warrior of Waterbirth, she spends her time traveling the globe, educating, lecturing and spreading the message of Waterbirth and all its benefits.

Enjoy the amazing episode and please Share!
