BIRTH ART

What is Birth Art

​

Birth Art is a powerful experiential learning process that helps women prepare and process on a deeper, more personal level for the unknown transformation that comes with childbirth and becoming a mother.  It is a true preparation that goes beyond learning about facts and data.  Birthing From Within's unique Birth Art Process was developed by Pam England has been helping expectant parents and birth professionals for over 30 years. 

​

Birth Art is for ALL women.  One who is preparing for birth, a new mother, one who has given birth many moons ago or one who simply wants to do some introspective work around birth.

​

Absolutely no art skills are required to enjoy and benefit from Birth Art Sessions.  There is no right or wrong!  This is all about the process rather than the outcome.

Here's what people are saying about their Birth Art Sessions!

​

Liliane is a gifted healer. She holds space for the nuance. For the slowing down. For the deeply needed introspection around birth and modern Motherhood. I was able to come to really beautiful and potent conclusions around my traumatic birth experience, in a single session. This was 2 years postpartum! If you feel unsettled or hurt or lost when it comes to processing and integrating your birth experience, I highly recommend sitting and creating with Liliane. Be open and the answers will find you.

"I realize now that I have no control when baby will come.  I was able to connect with baby and she is well, nurtured, protected and loved.  Huge shift for me:  Surrender to nature knowing best!"

"Birth art with Liliane, amazing! I embraced the process of going inward and intuitively allowing what wanted to be expressed to be drawn on the page, without controlling, just allowing the oil pastels I was using to flow from an inner source. I took the opportunity to process my pregnancy and birthing which took place more than 45 years ago. I entered a well, … literally I ended up drawing what I can only describe as a tornado-like well. A well full of emotions and memories…but also full of resources…such strength, such inner resources I never realized I had … such LOVE! when I first set eyes on my baby! The drawing included a beautiful heart with a tiny baby inside! Even after all these years it helped process and clear some of the difficult residue stuck within my psyche and my body. I feel so much lighter and okay with what I experienced at a time when there was so little support around me."

"I’d recommend this to other people because it’s a way to get emotions and feelings out that you may not even know that you are feeling at the very moment and it gives you a way to get those feelings and emotions out even if you don’t have the words to express what you are feeling."

I had the opportunity to participate and experience a Birth Art session with Liliane.  Liliane offered scenarios, prompts, questions and then gave me some time to express myself with colours and shapes on paper.  I could feel Liliane as she held a very beautiful space of love and compassion as I coloured.  I allowed myself to just let go on paper.  The prompts were exactly what I needed that day.  As I was colouring I noticed alot of emotions come to the surface; from grief, anger, guilt, resentment. These emotions certainly reflected alot of what I had never truly connected to and certainly never expressed fully as a young mother.  I feel that I came to a place of peace, joy and gratitude by the end of the exercise.  So powerful and healing. I am so grateful for Liliane and the safe and sacred space she held during the whole process.  If you are given the opportunity to participate in a Birth Art session I recommend it highly.  It's fun, playful and very healing.

"The birth art session allowed me to explore my subconscious ideas of motherhood with the gratification of creating art.  I would recommend this class to any mother or expecting mother!"
