This is the 8th and final episode of BIRTHING CONSCIOUS HUMANS - WITH WATER podcast recorded live on Zoom with Sophia Michalopoulou, Laila Sell, Sophia de Rosa Ortiz, Els Soetaert, AnastasÃia Kutkovska and Matt Thornton.
With a brief round of introductions, aquatic perinatal therapist and birth doula, Sophia Michalopoulou weaves the story of how each presenter arrived into her life and inspired this wonderful collaboration over the past six months.
The conversation unfolds through water's main therapeutic quality of ALLOWING. Rather than following a pre-determined set of questions or ideas we all agree to allow space in ourselves to share what feels alive in us and at the right moment, in flow.
ALLOWING water to run its course is one of the ways and reasons water lends itself so naturally to birth. Allowing our bodies and baby's to unfold naturally and in their own time is one of the fundamental principles of natural birth.
Similarly, the conversation flows easily and each presenter feels when it is their time to speak.
Some of the themes which arise are:
- How does water support and enhance a more conscious pregnancy and birth preparation?
- How does water support birth from a baby's perspective?
- What qualities of water will allow the next generation of water conscious humans to thrive?
- How does water engage our consciousness?
All podcast conversations are also available on Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6fJxlNcM46JZ6jIfsEqt_g
