together we climb the mountain
because I climb this mountain for you
together we wade through the river
together we shelter in the trees
gathered with my support crew
or standing solo
exuding the theatrics of the stage
or in the quiet Zen of retreat
I unravel myself
open myself
surrender myself
to this bold and broad and astonishing experience
that will release you
my child
into the world
and will forge my will
my heart
my being
into the wild depths of motherhood
Held in the story of Persephone, we start where all women now begin their birth journey – with Zeus, in the structure of patriarchy. Then we move beyond, through the supportive hold of mother Demeter, then further into ourselves until we find the unique wonder of woman, through courage, strength and surrender, to the breath and calm and ecstasy she can hold.
Written from the embodied experience of home birth mother and GP obstetrician, offering pregnant women and birth attendants insights into the hospital system, and the beauty that can be found in natural birthing.
