Module 6 Lesson: Mindfulness + Meditation for Birth
3m 38s
he power of your mind is incredible and studies are showing the benefits of guided meditation.
In fact, after just 15 minutes of meditation you will:
☑️Calm your nervous system
☑️ Increase gray matter density (frontal part of your brain)
☑️ Down regulate inflammation in the body
☑️ Help your mitochondria in your cells be resilient.
Plus practicing meditation long term, will increase your lifespan!
And what's key for birth?
A meditation practice actually decreases pain (and increases your pain tolerance).
This is with ANY basic guided meditation practice!
I am going to walk you through a guided meditation to connect with your ancestors.
IMPORTANT:
*If this is triggering for you, please picture a Goddess of Compassion and Strength instead of your ancestors (or avoid doing the meditation). The Goddess is transferring her radiant power into you, like a ray of sunshine, she sits behind you channeling her strength, wisdom and courage into you.
You want to find the right visualization that works for you during your pregnancy. With practice ,visualization can be super powerful.
If you do not connect with my Ancestral Meditation, or you want to discover new meditations (which I highly recommend), here are some options:

HOT TIP:
Like everything in this course, if you don’t find it helpful for you, then don’t do it.
