Co-Create your birth with nature and spirit!

Empower yourself to have a conscious pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. The birth of your child a once-in-a-lifetime experience that you cannot do over. Preparing yourself as much as possible during pregnancy will help you to co-create the optimal birth experience by learning to work with nature and spirit.

If you learn just one thing during this class that changes the course of your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum for the better, than the investment of your education will be worth itself many times over.

The Co-Creative Birthing Circle is created by Kara Spencer, LMT, CD, CBE, a childbirth educator, birth and postpartum doula, perinatal bodyworker, doula trainer, birth and women's circle facilitator, women and children's health advocate, writer, and mother. Kara is also the owner of Maia Healing Arts and the U.S. Director of Birth Arts International.
