Savor It

Why I want to be a Doula.

I think these videos are so beautiful and moving.  I only hope I can support women in the same way that these women (and their partners!) have been supported.  I'll find out soon enough....my official training is January 2012 with toLabor and I am SO INCREDIBLY EXCITED.

Just Breathe with me at the Wishstudio!

Come check out my monthly column, called Just Breathe at the Wishstudio. I'll be offering my take on yoga, pranayama (breathwork), creativity and inspiration. 

My friend Mindy has created the most amazing, magical and inspirational creative community online (and will soon be doing it in person!) I am so thrilled and honored to be a part of this wonderful network of women who are living their most passionate, creative lives.  Thanks for taking the time to visit me there and let me know what you think! 

Creative Way to Bring on Labor

I love this video!  This well-overdue mama of twins decided to "get her dance on" to help encourage her babies to come out and join the world.  I am simply amazed at how she was able to still move so easily being so far along, and shocked that she wasn't entirely exhausted by the end!  Such an inspiring and funny video for all the pregnant mamas out there. 

P.S. Jared and I walked into our wedding reception to greet our guests to this song! So it's already one of my favorites! ;)
