In this soulful and illuminating episode, I sit down with Rachana - pioneer of conscious birth practices, spiritual midwife, and founder of the International College of Spiritual Midwifery.

Together, we journey through the ancient wisdom of the heart - the Ib, and explore how our prenatal and birth experiences shape the very foundations of our lives. Rachana shares powerful insights on cellular memory, the heart-brain connection, and the sacred importance of restoring the feminine in our birthing practices and beyond.

We speak of story as medicine, the essence of ritual, and the beauty of processes like lotus birth and wrapping. This is a conversation for anyone called to reconnect to the wisdom of the womb, the power of the heart, and the sacred responsibility of tending the next generation with reverence.

Topics explored:

• • The Ib in Egyptian cosmology and the heart-brain resonance

• Healing birth trauma and restoring feminine dignity in birth

• • Rituals of wrapping, sound, frankincense, and inner alignment
  • Intergenerational healing and the first 1000 days of life
• • Stories of transformation and Rachana’s own childhood path

  
  

  This is one to listen to with your whole being. Let it settle into your cells.
