What do I do? I am a Spiritual Midwife.
I listen to your words and your body. I ask God, the Source of Creation, to bring me images, sounds, smells and memories of what you are experiencing beyond your spoken words.
I listen even more deeply for the responses that would be most helpful, most healing in the moment. I trust my intuition and the messages I hear. I honor what comes to me and consider it carefully. It might be a deep sacred silence, a touch, looking away, inviting prayer, breathing with, singing a song, offering a blessing, inquiring for more, writing your experience as I hear it as your poem/prayer, listening for or inviting an image from the mundane to the divine, or asking for more information…There is no formula.
I am a spiritual midwife. We co-create rituals that help you deepen and honor the turning moments in your life. We explore together where you are turning towards that which opens you to something new, or away from something that you no longer need. Whether it be a child, animal, house, body, moment, or whether it be a separation, a death, a transformation. We honor, celebrate, grieve, deepen.
I am a spiritual midwife, I help you remember your own wisdom, traditions, music. I help you remember your own poetry, your own words, your own hope. Your breath. I help you remember when remembering feels impossible.
I am a spiritual midwife. We do this all in the name of Healing. Thank you for allowing me to join you during this precious time.
How it works…
Our soul yearns to express itself. Often through creative expression and deep reflection during monthly individual or group Spiritual Direction sessions, we can find deeper meaning in our lives, notice where spirituality is guiding our lives, and help guide us to action. Check out my listing with Spiritual Director’s International here.
Spiritual Direction is delicious. I work with individuals, rabbinical and cantorial students, students of chaplaincy and Spiritual Direction and others interested in deepening their spiritual lives. You don’t need to be Jewish.
To learn more about group direction and designing your own group see: Group Spiritual Direction.
