Today I had my “Closing the Bones” ceremony — also known as the Cerrada.

The Cerrada is a traditional postpartum ritual that honors the mother’s journey through pregnancy and birth. It acknowledges the physical and emotional shifts she has undergone, and facilitates a sense of closure and renewal. The ritual includes an energetic and physical “closing” of the body, using techniques such as massage, body wrapping with rebozos, and a warm bath.

For me, it felt like a profound rite of passage — a fundamental ceremony that allowed me to reflect deeply on these past few months.

So much has come up. So much has happened.

Giving birth and becoming a mother has been the catharsis I didn’t know I needed — to finally release so many things that no longer served me. Things I had set the intention to let go of so many times before… but that could not be cleared by intention alone. They needed to be released at an energetic and cellular level.

I let go of the part of me that felt small, insecure, doubtful.
There is no room for that in motherhood.

I let go of the old stories where I saw myself as a victim — just so I could feel “right,” even at the cost of my peace.

I let go of the belief that I must simply accept life as it comes, and instead embraced the knowing that limitless possibilities exist — and that I can create the life I dream of.

Motherhood has called me to rise into a greater version of myself.
But not through force.
It simply made it happen — when I couldn’t do it on my own.

And I am so deeply grateful for that.

So excited for what’s yet to come.

No longer for me as an individual.
But as a part of a greater entity - my family. ✨

✨✨✨ infinite gratitude to my fairy doula for supporting me and us through this journey, during the most powerful time of our lives 🤍

To my husband,
Thank you for being by my side every step of the way in these past 9 months.
For the countless massage/acupressure/rebozo sessions :)
For prioritising taking care of my aching body even when you were tired and needed rest.
For taking me out for strolls, when I could barely walk anymore.
For giving me reassurance and emotional support in the moments of need.
For helping me out with chores and doing anything I needed or asked for.
For educating yourself and taking courses just to make sure you knew how to best support me.
For having been such an active participant in the whole process of bringing Aurora to us.

Thank you for being my anchor and our protector during the birth.
For praying, meditating, chanting and even drumming for us!
For creating and holding the space so that I could channel this beautiful Soul Earthside in a calm and peaceful environment.

Thank you for showing up so fully during postpartum.
For taking care of our home, as well as this recovering mama and our baby.
For each single time you get up at night to soothe Aurora. For singing to her, for rocking her, for providing strong loving arms that hold her.
For every nappy change session :)
For showing up for us and protecting us when upsetting unexpected events have come up.

Thank you for bringing so much light and joy in my life.

We love you and thank you. Forever.
🤍✨

Aurora Arena - 25/05/25, 8:58AM. 🌸
Aurora was born at home, in the comfort of our space, through an unmedicated, peaceful, natural birth, with just us and our incredible midwife.

Active labour began around 11PM on the 24th and lasted for 10 hours. I won’t lie — there were moments I wondered how on earth I’d make it to the end. But then I realised: there was no way out. The only way out was through.
Surrendering fully to the overwhelming sensations, instead of resisting them, was the turning point. When I stopped trying to escape and started to truly be there, that’s when I felt real progress. In the end, everything unfolded perfectly: no complications, no stitches, a truly textbook birth.

Gaetano, you were the best birth partner I could have ever wished for. Thank you for being my anchor and our protector— calm, strong, steady. You held space for me so beautifully, never interfering, just being. (And yes, doing all the mantras, drumming, prayers etc etc 😂). I love you so much. ❤️

Aurora is an angel. We’re completely in love and so deeply grateful to be her parents. 🩷🌸

[🇮🇹👇🏻] Carrying you has been the greatest honour and privilege — but I can’t say it’s always been easy. The body goes through so much, and at every stage I’ve had to meet new versions of discomfort and let go of control.
I thought I would love being pregnant — and I have — but there were times when the reverence for this cosmic, sacred state was clouded by physical pain and the frustration of not being able to do what I used to.

Still, this journey has been deeply spiritual: a practice of surrender and radical acceptance — of what is, exactly as it is. And of learning to see beauty and find joy even and especially when things are imperfect.
I’m so grateful to you, to my body, to this perfect dance between our souls.

And now… I just can’t wait to walk through the birth portal with you. Let’s do this together. 🌸💕

~~~ 🇮🇹 ~~~

Portarti dentro di me è stato il più grande onore e privilegio — anche se non sempre è stato facile. Il corpo attraversa così tante trasformazioni, e a ogni fase ho dovuto incontrare nuove forme di disagio e lasciar andare il controllo.
Pensavo che avrei adorato essere incinta — e in parte è stato così — ma ci sono stati momenti in cui la sacralità di questo stato cosmico era oscurata dal dolore fisico e dalla frustrazione di non poter fare ciò che facevo prima.

Eppure, questo viaggio è stato profondamente spirituale: una pratica di resa e accettazione radicale — di ciò che è, esattamente com’è. E di imparare a vedere la bellezza e trovare la gioia anche e soprattutto quando le cose non sono perfette.
Sono così grata a te, al mio corpo, a questa danza perfetta tra le nostre anime.

E ora… non vedo l’ora di attraversare il portale della nascita. Facciamolo insieme. 🌸💕

[🇮🇹👇🏻] One of the greatest teachings of pregnancy has been this: there’s no such thing as “bouncing back.”
Pregnancy, birth, and motherhood are deeply transformative—body, mind, lifestyle, identity. Everything shifts.
This in-between space, suspended between who we were and who we’re becoming, can feel disorienting. And because of that, many long to “go back” to how things were. But here’s the truth: there’s no going back. There’s only going forward.

And this isn’t just about pregnancy.
We often cling to past versions of ourselves during times of change, unable to accept the passing of time or the person we are now. But holding on keeps us stuck.

One of the most liberating things we can do—for our happiness, for our peace—is to embrace life’s seasons, fully embody who we are now and let ourselves grow and evolve.

Fully embracing who we are in the present moment creates the space to welcome what the future hold for us ✨

Love & Light,
Rita🤍

🇮🇹 Una delle più grandi lezioni che questa gravidanza mi ha insegnato è che non esiste il “tornare come prima”.
Gravidanza, parto, maternità… sono esperienze profondamente trasformative: il corpo, la mente, lo stile di vita, l’identità – tutto cambia.
Questo spazio di mezzo, sospeso tra chi eravamo e chi stiamo diventando, può farci sentire spaesate. Ed è anche per questo che tante donne non vedono l’ora che la gravidanza finisca, per “tornare indietro”.
Ma la verità è che non si torna. Si va avanti.

E questo vale per ogni fase di cambiamento.
Spesso ci aggrappiamo a versioni passate di noi stesse, incapaci di accettare il tempo che passa e la persona che siamo ora. Ma restare attaccate al passato ci tiene bloccate.

Accettare che la vita ha stagioni diverse e che tutto si trasforma è una delle cose più liberanti che possiamo fare – per la nostra serenità, per la nostra felicità.

Love&Light
Rita 🤍✨

Today is what you prayed for years ago.
The peace you’re living, the strength you carry, the opportunities you have now- they were once distant dreams, whispered into the stars. ✨

🇮🇹 Oggi è ciò per cui pregavi anni fa.
La pace che vivi, la forza che porti dentro, le opportunità che hai ora — un tempo erano sogni lontani, sussurrati alle stelle. ✨

It was a small, intimate wedding organised very quickly, as we wished to be fully, officially united as a family before Aurora comes Earth side.
24.2.25 was a magical day, the memory of which we will cherish forever 🩷
We are so grateful to our family and friends that came from all over Italy and UK to celebrate us on our day. ✨
And now, we’re ready for baby 👶😍🚀

channelled unique perspectives at . This is my take on one that really sticked with me.

Forgive anyone who’s there to forgive in your life.
Because without them and the influence they had in your life, you wouldn’t have experienced solitude, loneliness, and the emotions in that loneliness.

It is only experiencing complete Solitude that one can then experience complete Unity with everything and everyone in the universe. Because you can only ever have experience of what you know the opposite.
It’s the duality of our human nature.

So say thank you, truly, to anyone who’s ever made you feel like you’re alone, and embrace that feeling completely.

It takes 90 seconds to live a feeling fully and let it pass. But if not felt, it will influence your behaviours in your entire life.

Do not be afraid of loneliness, rather be present in it fully. Let all the emotions and the wounds that need to come up come up and truly experience them.
They will dissipate, they will disappear on their own.
And then, you’ll be free.

🤍 FEEL IT UNTIL YOU HEAL IT. 🤍

And this will give way to your Ascension.

You are One with the Universe. ✨

[Meeting Zach was one of the great honours of this festival. I rarely meet humans who can be as present as he is with every single soul he witnesses. Living from his heart, and connecting to the hearts of others. Selflessly devoted to all existence in front of him, in any form, in any moment.
What an inspiration.
He also gives THE BEST hugs 🫂🤩 highly recommend 😂👌🏻]

Things I wish I could tell my 10 year old self 🤍💫

You’re whole.
You don’t *need* anyone outside of yourself.
But people will bring so much joy into your life.

You don’t need to be accepted or be liked by others.
Other people can only see you through the lenses through which THEY see the world. They can only see and perceive finite aspects of you. Therefore, what they see of you does not define who you are.

Don’t ever make yourself small just to fit into a box, into one perspective, into one idea of how other people want you to be.

Those who are for you will see you.

Every human is the embodiment of infinite creative potential.
But very few are brave enough to dive into themselves to see it.

Be brave.
Be courageous.
Stay rebel.
Don’t be afraid to embody fully Who You Really Are.
You are deeply loved.

Happy birthday little Rita🥳
You’re growing younger every year 🤍✨🤩

Love is unconditional.
It exists without knowing.
And it recognises itself in the eyes of one another.
