Your Powerful Placenta

Placentas!

I was deep in placenta land after creating my free Powerful Placenta Guide and felt excited to record this episode on placentas. 

So often not thought about unless there’s a problem. Thrown away without a second thought. “Medically managed” because labor is over at that point so it doesn’t really matter how this part of the birth goes, right?

Wrong! Traditional cultures have always known that placentas are magic! Both nourishing the baby inside, and spiritually protecting the baby for the rest of its life, placentas are worth honoring. I talk about what a placenta actually is and how it functions, the spiritual significance of the placenta, birthing your own placenta, cord cutting options, 

You can get my whole guide here, so I’m not going to write too much about this episode.
