An Arts-Based Workshop for Birth and Postpartum
About
Hala and Cherie are teaming up again to offer the community a birth and postpartum-themed workshop.Over 2.5 hours together on a Thursday evening, in the comfort of Cherie’s home and with a fire crackling in the background, you’ll be guided through a series of arts-based exercises aimed at helping prepare for birth and the postpartum periods with mindfulness, creativity and curiosity.
These exercises are grounded in the Birthing From Within approach and will include:
- drawing and tracing a labyrinth - and exploring why it can be a rich metaphor for birth and the postpartum periods;
- a birth or postpartum-themed “art”* activity;
- a ritual designed to help you connect with your partner/community and yourself as you prepare to journey into the labyrinth of birth and postpartum.
*We’ve used quotation marks around “art” because we can’t stress enough that you don’t need to be an “artist” to take part. There will be no forced “show-and-tell” - because the value of this type of art is in the process, not the end product itself.
Investment: $54.50 + booking fee. This is inclusive of all artwork materials as well as tea and snacks. Please advise of any allergies and dietary requirements upon registration.
Please refer to the terms and conditions of the event as it includes important information about the workshop.
We look forward to hosting you for this special event!
