Miscarriage

Every year, about 15% of known pregnancies globally will end in miscarriage. Some people who experience miscarriage are relieved while others are blindsided by the pain that is raw and deep. Some feel guilt and shame, as if their bodies have betrayed them or they did something wrong to make it happen when in fact it is often our bodies working as they should to release a pregnancy that was not viable. Even so, the loss can be incredibly painful and devastating mentally, physically and emotionally. I experienced multiple pregnancy losses at different stages and have also helped my family members and friends through their pregnancy losses. How you feel about your miscarriage is the right way to feel. I can help guide you through your emotions and provide holistic solutions to nurture your mind and body through your recovery.

Cacao Ceremony

Miscarriage is a deeply emotional experience, and many cultures around the world have developed ceremonies and rituals to help families cope with the loss. These practices have likely been around for as long as humans have been able to conceptualize and ritualize death and loss. Its unfortunate that this is not as common in the United States. Often, women are asked to suffer through their miscarriage silently and return to their day-to-day life immediately. I offer a cacao ceremony to witness your loss and provide love, compassion and understanding. This sacred ceremony will not suddenly release you from the emotions that you are feeling but will help you to understand your emotions, reframe your grief and honor the baby(ies) that you carried. The cacao ceremony can open your heart, bringing you back into a connection with yourself and your partner. This can be very healing when experiencing a pregnancy loss.
