Birth Story Medicine

In this session, Pam England outlines four causes of emotional birth trauma: birth stories, expectations, agreements, and reactions from birth story listeners. Birth stories are powerful teachers; a birth story invokes images, feelings and agreements within the listener. Learn how to listen to, and how to tell, a birth story so that the birth story awakens healing energies.
