WHO IS THIS TRAINING FOR?
Whether you are already a postpartum doula, birthkeeper and/or a woman with a desire to delve deep into a mystical and healing world to support new mothers today, just as they were being supported many years ago, this is the place for you.
A traditional postpartum doula is different to a postpartum doula. She not only offers general support and care for the baby/mother; but supports the new mother by welcoming her, honouring her, nourishing her, nurturing her, closing her and celebrating her using ancient rituals and sacred wisdom. This course goes deep into the emotional and physical support for the new mother and explores the ancient healing medicine of Morocco through theoretical and practical modules.
You will have the esteemed role of being the traditional qabla (receiver) for the new mother and welcoming her on her new healing journey with love, compassion, nurture, nourishment and care.
This training will also serve as a mini retreat for birthworkers so we will take tea breaks, enjot time at the pool (Miami) and wind down each day on the roof deck of our loft (Philadelphia) to unwind.
