Pregnancy invites the body into an entirely new landscape.

So many books, blogs, & guides focus only on symptoms + weeks... and not the deeper story your body is whispering beneath the surface.

Somatic awareness helps you:
✨Feel grounded in a changing body
✨Move through fear + nervous system activation
✨Build trust with your intuition
✨Prepare emotionally + spiritually for birth
✨Connect with your baby on a deeper level

That’s why I created A Somatic Guide For Pregnancy,
A gentle embodied resource for any pregnant person or anyone supporting pregnancy who wants to feel more…

✨Connected
✨Present
✨Resourced
✨Held

Inside you’ll also find:
✨Breath & body practices
✨Nervous system support tools
✨Journal pages
✨Somatic practices for easing overwhelm
✨Simple Rituals for nervous system support

Your body already knows the way.

This guide simply helps you come into deeper attunement

Certain spiritual traditions recognize three distinct stages in the female life cycle, each marked by a rite of passage: menstruating for the first time, giving birth to your first child, and finally, menopause. These stages are also referred to as Maiden, Mother, and Crone.

As Heng Ou so beautifully states in her book, the first forty days: “The transitions from one stage to another are each significant initiations for a woman, as established ways of being fall away to reveal a land that has yet to be discovered.

When a maiden becomes a mother she is required to reprioritize her universe, placing another being at the forefront of her attention-before her own feelings and desires. This shifting of her focus propels her forward into the next chapter of her life, where old systems are promptly dismantled and new methods must be created......
.And as you step fully into your new role as mother, it’s also important to acklowledge who you were before you gave birth as well as who you will be at the end of your childbearing years”

Did you honor or acknowledge this transition in any way?

When I am among the trees, especially the willows and the honey locust, equally the beech, the oaks and the pines, they give off such hints of gladness,
I would almost say that they save me, and daily.
I am so distant from the hope of myself, in which I have goodness, and discernment, and never hurry through the world but walk slowly, and bow often.
Around me the trees stir in their leaves and call out, “Stay awhile.”
The light flows from their branches.
And they call again, “It’s simple,” they say,
“and you too have come into the world to do this, to go easy, to be filled with light, and to shine.”

When December settles over the earth, the world steps into its darker beauty. Nights lengthen like ancient pathways. Frost gathers along the edges of the earth. Light thins into something pale and sacred, and everything in the natural world begins to speak in a slower, older language.

This is the season when you may feel the pull of the subtle enchantments that only winter can hold. The hidden magic shimmering in the quiet silver of morning. The stories carried by the wind as it moves through bare branches. The deep lessons offered by creatures who walk the cold with instinct sharp as bone.

A different kind of wisdom begins to rise now. One that does not hurry and does not shout. A wisdom shaped by patience. By shadow. By the slow turning of the earth beneath the frozen ground. It reaches into the inner chambers where noise has lived too long. It loosens old knots. It awakens what has been waiting in the dark.

There is a sacred beauty in creating small winter rituals. A stone placed with intention. A branch laid upon a table. A candle lit not for brightness but for presence. Even a moment of still observation can reveal the ancient cycle. Endings folding into beginnings. Darkness shaping the first quiet breath of light.

And there is a fierce, tender magic in writing letters or notes during these long nights. Do you feel the beauty of shaping words that seem lifted from a winter grove. Lines that steady the spirit. Truths that return the body to its instinct. Reminders that winter is never empty but alive in its wild and mysterious ways.

December asks for presence. For a slower step. For eyes that can see what moves beneath the surface. For a willingness to be touched by the quiet force that rises when the world grows still.

Winter carries its own medicine. Its own guidance. Its own ancient way of calling you back to the deepest part of yourself.
