Yes To Birth by Rachel Yellin

My passion is guiding you towards yourself so that you ultimately feel fully engaged in your life. I Everything that I do springs from the fundamental belief.

I believe that the only way out of suffering is traveling the path of self-knowledge, awareness and healing. My work takes many forms, and has expanded organically to encompass helping people through both wonderfully transformative moments and grueling uninvited change. The common thread weaving through the tapestry of my work is the practice of presence. When we are present, we can simply "be" with ourselves with consciousness and acceptance. When we are present, we have awareness of how we are meeting life's inevitable challenges. When we are present, we see with clarity how we create and identity for ourselves. Whether I'm with you in a yoga class, a Depth Hypnosis or consulting session, or a childbirth education class, I consciously create a space for you to feel your presence more fully. When given the opportunity to take up more space in a society where we often feel compressed and congested, this small gesture can result in a powerful release. I bring a personal and passionate heart-centered approach to each person with whom I work, drawing on experience, intuition, and my own personal search to know the truth. I want to get to the heart of every situation, and this means that I take a direct and honest approach, ask lots of questions, and share my own experiences when it's appropriate. My works stems from my own insatiable appetite for wholeness. Since I was young, I've had a drive to understand and experience ways to feel more joyful and at ease - and this unbridled curiosity spills over into my clients.

In a statement the birth space, it’s easy to fall into these familiar patterns of thinking:

“They’re the experts, not me.” …and you overlook your inner wisdom.
“This must be my only option.” …and you hesitate to explore alternatives.
“This is just routine procedure.” …and you let go of your right to ask or decline.

But remember, parents: your birth is a sacred journey that you actively take part in. It isn’t something that happens to you — it unfolds with you.

Sometimes it can feel overwhelming, as though the experience is happening to you. So how do you reclaim your power?

BREATHE.
SPEAK YOUR TRUTH.
CONNECT WITH YOUR INNER GUIDANCE.
And use your B.R.A.I.N. to approach decisions from a place of empowerment:

• Benefits: How does this serve you and your baby in both the short and long term?
• Risks: What are the physical, emotional, and spiritual risks?
• Alternatives: What other paths or approaches can you consider?
• Intuition: What is your body, mind, and heart telling you?
• Nothing: What if you paused and chose to wait, doing nothing for now or longer?

This is your sacred birth space. Claim your authority.
How will you honor and advocate for yourself throughout your birth journey?

In birth, your body knows exactly what you are capable of handling. Yes, the sensations are intense, but Mama, so are you!

Your birth journey calls for strength and resilience, and those qualities are already within you. You’ve shown your strength through every stage of pregnancy, nurturing life and finding moments of peace and joy amidst its challenges.

Mama, within you is a deep well of power—the power to birth with confidence and love, to mother with kindness and intuition, and to trust yourself fully. You are worthy, and you are enough.

I want to call your attention to the connection between what you eat and how you feel.

Did you know that the food we eat provides our body with the essential nutrients we need to function properly? If we don't get adequate nutrients, our metabolic processes suffer, and our health declines. Imagine the impact of inadequate nutrition on the growth of a baby!

If you want to change your life, you must change your food.

"We really appreciate this class since we used to be extremely terrified of childbirth. During labor/delivery, my wife was able to let go of herself, and her body naturally transitioned to a more primal state. We wanted to thank Rachel so much for her insightful teachings that enabled us to have a safe, efficient, and beautiful birth experience." - Jack L.

I had a delightful time chatting with Stacey Weinstein of Hello Healing on her video series Meet the Healers. Stacey and I first met in San Francisco when she was pregnant. We talked about how the birth experience can be approached from a perspective that empowers the mother (and her partner) to have a connected, positive, and even joyful experience welcoming their new child into this world.
