"Pain is inevitable but it is not scary. As a women we were built to bring life into the world and there are many techniques to help strengthen us through the journey. I loved the mountain climbing analogy.​"

Celebrated Childbirth Preparation
in the Comox Valley & Beyond


After 5 years of teaching, guiding and resourcing folks through my childbirth education retreats, I am bringing forth a thorough embodied practice to help you prepare for and/or integrate life with your baby. I'm basically weaving together wisdom and integral knowledge to help YOU get the most out of your experience while you're pregnant or holding your newborn.

I've woven together my experience of facilitating DOZENS of postpartum meetups, a safe confidential space where (weekly since 2016!), hundreds of people's stories and experiences are heard and supported. All of the above combined with my own awareness as I raise my children on a mountain side as an off-grid homesteader, I can't help but to share. I walk under the moon EVERY night and I am putting ALL of my insights, awareness and revelations from my own parenting and rewilding experiences. As we have been pushed towards a more online framework of learning and being "in community", I am putting forth a curriculum that will ultimately help you to unplug and feel into your body, your amazing systems and energy centers and to tap into your own wisdom that is rising!! To get outdoors more, and to trust that the land is your ultimate best friend.

"We found it very helpful to ....connect to our birthing intentions, trying out different positions and massages for labour, and to meet and share with other expectant parents. Serena created a warm and welcoming environment. It felt like a nourishing day" -Lindsay

Informed Choice


​Get a clear appreciation and understanding of the facts, and up to date research on the physiology of childbirth and options available to you. Birth can't be planned necessarily, but exploring your desires and intentions can be a fun and liberating process. With evidence based handouts, you will receive tools and insights to help you gain a clear and broad perspective of your autonomy in the birth room. This component of the class weaves together science, physiology and the importance of the body, mind and heart connection
​ for your birth choices.


​Mindful Preparation


​Through the creative flow of writing, you will explore your inner mentor and gain awareness of the dynamic parts of yourself.  Gather information from your womb and discover ways to have your vibrant voice heard through guided intuitive explorations and exercises to practice throughout the weeks of gathering together.


​Movement & Meditation


​We will gather in a welcoming, inclusive and free flow space that is yours
to contribute, explore and be free in. Using dance and movement exercises, feel connecting and aligned to your power centers. This will help you to ground and clear any stuck energy, and to connect you with your expressive, loving, beautiful wild self. ​

Together in this very informative and fun class you will learn and discover different resources and tools that will connect you with your baby. By discovering and exploring comfort measures, breathing techniques and more, you will be able to connect with your wild, dynamic, vibrant nature. This is a day geared to help you to feel more confident and to create your birth and postpartum intentions and goals.


Stages of Birth as a Passage into Parenthood


​Giving birth or living life can be overwhelming, amazing, ecstatic, nerve wracking and pleasurable. Experience childbirth as a life transforming process, a dynamic ​emergence into your brilliant power. This course component connects the similarities between our primal human physiology to your power to give birth into a healthy state of being.
