Prenatal Village

A special gathering for pregnant women to feel nurtured, heard, supported and nourished.

We gather out of selfless service to support and encourage the instinctual life of pregnant women who are trying to birth in power against a modern current of fear and an environment of many interventions.

We are grandmothers, mothers, sisters, midwives, aspiring midwives, doulas, nurses, doctors, yoga teachers, psychiatrists, pharmacists, energy and body workers, ministers and anyone else who cares deeply about simple and sacred birth.

We are here to help her:

  • Nourish her body, baby and spirit
  • With support, encouragement and inspiration
  • Bathe in a sense of belonging
  • Trust her intuition
  • Strengthen her confidence in her body – that it has all the right answers
  • Believe in herself – no one has her "knowing"
  • Do it her way
  • Speak her Truth
  • Find a place of peace to make her own decisions 

We do this through sharing a nutritious vegetarian lunch, talking circle, stories, meditation, and more.

If you want to bring a beloved elder woman in your life please do! We ask that the she bring a potluck dish to share. Please have her contact Colette, who is organizing the shared lunch, by email (colette@seattleholisticcenter.com).

Please pre-register  here to let us know you're coming so that we can organize food.
