Join Morgan West of Hummingbird Midwifery, for a 14-week group experience of community building, perinatal and birth education, and exploration of embodiment, pleasure, gratitude, connection, intuition, and transformation as a birther and parent.
As a midwife and two-time birther, Morgan has seen how isolating pregnancy and postpartum life can be. Many pregnant people share a deep yearning for community. As pregnancy and birth become further medicalized, Morgan see’s pregnant people fragmented and lost in the maze of conflicting advice and opinions. Morgan wants pregnant people to feel CONNECTED to themselves and to a larger community.
Morgan know’s the immense power we each hold deep within and how difficult it can be to access, especially in the emotionally charged times of pregnancy, birth & postpartum. She is dedicated to bringing pregnant people into relationship with their ROOTS to guide decision making, bring more pleasure and power into their life, and receive support from the earth.
CONNECTED: Finding ease in the present
A cure for isolation and feeling alone in challenging times.
A curious, compassionate, love-filled endeavor.
An opportunity to build relationship with yourself, your baby, and others.
A way to support the feeling of safety and groundedness, especially as you birth.
A skill to carry throughout your life as a parent.
ROOTS: Our centre, our truth
A place inside to explore, cultivate, and celebrate.
A grounding cord when navigating hard moments.
A common thread between humans.
A connection to the earth.
A place we guide our babies through.
The CONNECTED ROOTS PREGNANCY CIRCLES offering will include 5 in-person meetings over a 14-week period with a cohort of pregnant people due within the same season. We’ll sit together, learn together, reflect together…connect, play, sing, laugh, and emote in all the ways we feel called. There will be a communication platform specific to your cohort to foster relationships between our sessions and into the future when your babies have arrived. I’ll offer prompts each week to deepen our work together and host ‘Ask a Midwife’ chats for you to bring questions relevant to pregnancy, birth & postpartum that you’d like my perspective on.
5 in-person meetings over a 14-week period: embodied exploration, perinatal education, preparation exercises, relationship building.
Communication platform for connection outside of our groups.
Weekly prompts and exercises for reflection and growth.
Weekly ‘ask a midwife’ chats.
“It is my deep desire that you leave our time together with a better sense of yourself and your power, a community of other parents to call upon, and holistic preparation and insights to support you through even the hardest moments of pregnancy, birth & beyond.”
