Mother Blessing
A true rite of passage to Womanhood.
Maiden to Mother.
Imagine returning a baby shower to what it originally was - a beautiful Mother Blessing is where the mum is gifted recognition from her mother, grandmother, friends and sisters for her strength and power in her ability to Birth her baby gently and calmly.
Traditionally a Navajo Indian ceremony honouring Maiden to Mother.
There are many ways to honour the Birthing Woman, language from your heart seems to be the most powerful and unforgettable and the words she will draw on when it’s time to Birth.
A birthing bracelet intertwined all together with prayer and tied off and worn by her sisters until the birthing day where it is released and all the energy is returned to the mum during birth.
Meaghan invites maidens to personalise their Mother Blessing.

A birthing bracelet ( red thread twine ritual )

Closing of the Bones Ceremony
Closing of the Bones brings back ancient Mexican ceremony offered by Midwives into our modern day.
In some cultures, it is believed that the woman's spirit will leave her body during labour & childbirth to collect their baby bringing them back earthside.
​
The Closing of the Bones is a beautiful ceremony using authentic traditional rebozos ( Mexican scarves ) where we wrap her body so she feels held to then release through the spoken word in the ceremony. It is offered around six weeks post Birth to invite the spirit of the woman back into her body & an opportunity to release any trauma she may have experienced.
​
It is deeply relaxing, healing & purposeful after Birth.
Closing of the Bones can be a ceremony offered to a woman at any time in her life. Rites of passage like menopause, turning of age & closing off anything you feel you need to sever ties to.
Includes a full Birth debrief, herbal tea, reiki, a ritual of your choice e.g journalling, labrinth, womb massage using my handmade aromatherapy womb balm in the comfort of your own home.
