The Power of Touch: Why Learning Baby Massage Matters 💛✨

From the very beginning, babies thrive on connection.
Baby massage isn’t just about touch — it’s about comfort, bonding, and supporting your baby’s growth in a calm, loving way.

✅ Supports sleep, digestion & relaxation
✅ Helps ease colic, wind & teething discomfort
✅ Builds stronger parent-baby connection
✅ Boosts feel-good hormones for both of you

Many parents say that learning baby massage helped them feel more confident, relaxed, and in tune with their little one.
It’s also a beautiful way to support your own emotional wellbeing — especially during those early, intense months.

Curious to learn?
Miri is a Certified Infant Massage Instructor and offer group classes or one-on-one home visits. Let’s start this gentle journey together 💕

Our jaw and pelvis are actually connected through a fascinating network of fascial tissue☝️

During the embryonic stage of development, the spinal cord forms to physically link the jaw and the pelvis, creating a deep-seated anatomical connection that can profoundly influence our overall health and well-being.

Yes! As you can imagine, your pelvic floor muscles also work with your jaws!

Let’s relax your jaw to relax your pelvic floor😌Many of us clench the jaw and this tightens the pelvic floor...

Remember, relaxing the jaw helps the pelvic floor relax😉(From Ina May Gaskin’s pregnancy books)

Taking deep low sighs, singing and using your low tones voice naturally relax the pelvic floor too! Because it's relax the jaw🎉

Can you see the similarities in these two?

Intresting fact💡
Your womb & jaw developed from the same membrane during the very early stages of your journey as an embryo👶

And the larynx (voice box) and cervix (the lower, narrow part of the uterus) are anatomically connected through the vagus nerve.

The cervix is highly sensitive to alterations in the nervous system and is often referred to as the “second brain” due to its dense network of neural connections💫

When we experience chronic stress or trauma, our breathing can become more shallow, which can subsequently impact the functioning of the vagus nerve.

This can lead to tension in vocal and throat area which can then contribute to variety respiratory concerns, and inflammation in the cervix which can then contribute to a variety of reproductive health concerns.

How is your jaws? Feels tight?
Restricted breathing or voice?
How is your menstural cycle?
Heavy, any clots or pain?

Let me know if you find any connections between😉

Do you know what is the Vagus Nerve, where it is located and why is it so important?😊

The vagus nerve is the 10th cranial nerve with impressive length and function, running from the brain all the way to the abdomen.

It is one of the most critical nerves in the body, connecting the brain to many vital organs, including the heart, lungs, and digestive tract and responsible for balancing many of the body’s essential functions, including digestion, breathing, and heart rate🫀

It also plays a crucial role in controlling the parasympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for calming the body and reducing stress levels. And more!

Interestingly, as you can see from this picture, the nerve runs into your larynx (voice box) and jaw. When the nerve becomes overly activated due to stress or trauma, it can cause a range of issues in your throat and jaw area such as vocal strain.

Then, how we can support the healthy vagus nerve function?

The one of effective way to do this is working on your voice and releasing tension from your jaw and throats 💫

After you went to the singing lesson, you might experienced feeling very content, open and full of energy🎶 Use the power of your voice to achieve whole your wellbeing☺️🌼

Soul Voice Method and Karina teaches how to navigate through this process🙌 The 2 days workshop coming up on next weekend 22ed and 23rd of March.
