November Support Meeting: Practicing Self-Compassion after a Difficult Birth
2018-11-06 19:00 - 21:00 | The Retreat Day Spa, 5236 Overton Rd, Irondale, 35210, United States
When birth doesn’t go as we hoped or planned it would, it’s often easy for us to beat ourselves up over what happened. A loss of self-confidence and feelings of failure are common for mothers who experience a birth outcome that was not ideal.
For our November meeting, we will be talking about how to practice compassion and kindness with yourself after a difficult or disappointing birth. (Spoiler alert: you’re going to be reminded that you that you ARE most definitely worthy of compassion and kindness!!)
Partners and support people are welcome. Due to space limitations, babies in arms only, please! Our monthly support meetings are always FREE. For more information about our ICAN chapter, please check out our Facebook page.
