Fun fact about your Woven Circle Doula: I have a Fine Arts Degree in Ceramics.
This piece called "Witchy Woman", created during high school, will always be one of my favorites. It was a time I truly found my flow, time melted away, and it felt amazing.
Emotions are more complex than our minds can truly grasp. Tough times, happy times, stuck times, sometimes we can't find the words. Our emotions are held in our bodies and can actually prevent labor from moving smoothly. I encourage anyone- pregnant, postpartum, struggling with infertility, deciding children isn't right for them, and everywhere in between, try to do something with your hands. Garden, draw, paint, glue random found objects together, doodle, smash a plate (but wear safety glasses), DO something to release some emotion from your body.
Trust me: you'll feel better.
