Podcast #1 ~ Adriana’s (free)birthstory
Recorded on the 16th of December 2020//9 Noj – the day of feminine wisdom in the Mayan Cholq’ij calendar.
My friend Adriana gave birth to her son Leo at the shores of Lake Atitlán, Guatemala, on July 19th 2018 at 3:45am. She birthed at home in the bathtub after about 4/5 hours of active labour. May you be inspired by her story and view on natural birth and how she went about to create the birthing experience that she wanted for herself and her son – to be able to tap into her animal self and give birth in that state. She perceives birth as a natural part of life and shares her birthstory as a rather shamanic journey with some orgasmic experiences to it.

“In my mind there is nothing else that needs to be added to the formula other than just a peaceful state and a mother that can connect to her body and to her animal self.”

** I excuse myself for the non-perfection of the sound. Working on it. The end of the recording ends a bit abrupt as the memory of the recorder device was full, though, as Adriana shared “in perfect full cycle”, as her story came to an end anways. May you enjoy and be inspired.
