birth story medicine
Guided storytelling session for transforming personal birth story
Birth Story Medicine© uses the mythic framework of the hero's journey to help a woman assimilate her birth as a rite of passage. By using this map, I (the story listener) will guide you (the storyteller) to move through your own wounding and mine it for medicine. In this dynamic process, you will gain insight, resolution and healing in just one session.
I offer private and confidential one-hour sessions.
We can meet by phone, video conference or in person in Asheville N.C.
what a session looks like:
- One 90-120 minute birth story listening session (in person or virtual)
-
In this session you will be gently guided into the heart of your birth experience to uncover the parts of your birth that feel the most unresolved. Through dialogue and other creative processes, I will help you to bring more awareness, acceptance, and compassion to yourself and your story.
