Birth Imprints with Anna

Today on the Natural Birth Podcast is a solo episode with Anna talking about Birth Imprints. What they are and how we, through awareness and knowledge can heal and rewrite our imprint if it doesn’t serve us and our babies. It also gives us understanding to why we are the way we are and why our babies and children might behave the way they do. Imprints are created in the womb, during our birth and in the early years of childhood as your nervous system develops. And there is a possibility of rewriting these imprints in the early childhood years if one is aware of them as well as into adulthood through awareness, however we are more malleable in early childhood. Between the ages 0-2 our blue print is created. We are sponges taking in all the information about life. What is it safe to do be or express and what is not, is the world a scary place or not, are we wanted, loved, are our basic needs met and so on and so forth.  From 2-7 this blue print is refined and set. How we are supposed to be to be accepted by the tribe, how we are supposed to handle emotions and how we react in all kinds of situations, circumstances and with people and relationships etc.  Our birth imprints often override our conscious mind and not until we shine a light on it do we realize the impact they have on us and how we live, think, act and make choices in life.   The experience of birth is a crucial part of our lives that we often overlook. Our first moments in the world can have a profound impact on our physical, emotional, and mental well-being. These imprints can influence a range of behaviors and attitudes, from our relationships with others to our ability to cope with stress. Understanding and healing these imprints is important for anyone who wants to live a more conscious and fulfilling life and be the best parent you can be for your children.   Anna will be holding a Birth Imprint Workshop later on this year.
