A big light in the world of normalising physiological birth has extinguished. Michel was a guiding force to many of us who care for this space for women and babies.
His great legacy now part of the next generation of birth champions.
My thoughts are with Liliana and his family.
I feel a great sense of honour to have had his influence so deeply impressed in my work. RIP

The MummyYoga Birth Preparation course focuses exclusively on what you can do to help yourself have the most positive birth experience, regardless of the type of birth you are planning. It will teach you in depth skills to prepare yourself mentally, emotionally as well as physically for the birth.
* We will understand the importance of your thought processes during labour and birth.
* We will talk about the effect of stress and fear on your labour and how this hinders the birth process.
* We will talk about how to work with your body to help progress your labour in a way that leaves you calm and empowered
* We will discuss the physiology of the normal breathing and how it affects the birth process.
* We will explore effective breathing and deep relaxation techniques.
* We will discuss the impact of sounds on your neurobiology and emotions.
* We will talk about how fear and anxiety can have a negative impact on your body during the birth and learn how to manage it.
* We will incorporate the evidence from neuroscience helping you to rewire your brain from fear to confidence using breath awareness techniques.
* We will practice skills to overcome fear and increase your confidence and trust in your ability to give birth.

In this course we will elevate the role of your birthing partner (be it your husband/boyfriend/ girlfriend/friend/ mother/doula).
we will bring in the clear evidence from neuroscience in understanding how effective communication by your birthing partner can help you concentrate on the physical and emotional elements of childbirth.

Partners will be able to pick up key skills in facilitating and supporting the birth and experiencing a true sense of team effort in this wonderful aspect of your birthing journey.
* Birth positions they can assist with.
* How your emotions change during the labour and signs to look for.
* Practical tools and techniques for your partner to keep you calm, relaxed and ease discomfort during the birth.
* Ways your birth partner can help you achieve a deeply relaxed state.
* Informed decision making.
* Effective ways to build rapport and work with the midwifery team supporting you.

Here is a service that is so close to my heart. Samantha Bull is the most wonderful midwife a person and family could ask for. I should know, Sam was our midwife for all my three births and 4 pregnancies.
If you need the most wonderful care… reach out to her. There is no other like Sam.

Time to talk...do we have enough?

I have worked in the NHS for 18 years. I love what I do as a midwife, but I don't feel like I always can provide the care that I want to due to time restrictions.

When I qualified in Women's health massage I knew I wanted to give women time to talk before the "hands on" part of the treatment.

It means the world to me that I can provide the space and time to truly listen to what my clients want to say.

It makes me feel like I am providing an excellent service to my women, which can be very difficult in the NHS.

If you are trying to conceive you may not want to talk to your nearest and dearest about how frustrating and heartbreaking you are finding it.

If you are pregnant you may feel like you can't have all of your questions answered as you only have a short period of time with your midwife.

If you are suffering with menopausal symptoms you may not feel comfortable talking about your changes in identity with those around you.

So that's where I come in. I am here for you. Because I truly care about providing a space for you to feel heard.

I have mostly been silent of late as I have lost a lot of mojo with social media (I was never it’s biggest fan and felt it was a business must).
But today I am here to wish peace to the parents and families in Chester who are going through indescribable horror and pain.
I may know some of you and my own maternity journey between 2014 and 2020 at the means this whole nightmare has been too close to the bone for me.
I wish you peace
I wish you space
I wish you light ahead

If you need my support, I am here.

I have a new column in all about guilt free ideas and inspiration to build physical activity into your life.
No gym sessions or exercise classes needed!
Sometimes we just need to reframe and change our attitude to physical activity and just see the amazing opportunities our day to day life presents us.
Read it in the current issue and in the coming issues… your regular positive dose of encouragement to move more.
