Embodiment in motherhood is a profound yet often overlooked part of the transition into parenthood. This blog explores how pregnancy, birth, postpartum and past trauma can deeply impact a mother's connection to her body. It shares my personal insights and research around body image, disconnection, fatigue and emotional overwhelm. And a path to reconnection and healing.

Somatic Therapy supports mothers to reconnect with their bodies and emotions in a gentle, creative way. It blends mindfulness, body awareness, and expressive practices to help release tension, process held experiences, and build a deeper sense of inner connection. Especially during pregnancy, postpartum, or parenting, it offers a safe space to come home to yourself and feel more grounded, present, and resourced.

In this first post on The Soft Ground, I share the story behind this space. From 11 years of infertility to the overwhelming beauty and unraveling of early motherhood, I invite you into the raw, honest journey of sacred and embodied transitions.
