For further information about dates, costs and booking in please go to www.innerbirth.com.au or contact Kath on 0402 203 267 or kath@innerbirth.com.au

Birth is an experience to be cherished, not feared. My aim for teaching calmbirth is to reduce the anxiety that many women feel as they approach this amazing experience. Couples learn about how their body is designed to birth, the important relationship between beliefs and the impact these have on assisting or hindering the birth process. Releasing fears through relaxation sessions held in the classes as well as private work with CDs at home. Learning practical skills such as breathing, relaxation techniques, positions for birth, partners learn how to offer support. All within the supportive environment of small group workshops.

Calmbirth classes are suitable for : first time parents; mums/dads who have had a previous birth experience that left them feeling unsure or anxious about giving birth again; previous c/sections aiming for a natural birth.

Cost per couple:

$50 for Handbook and Double Relaxation CD,

$350 for the 12hr Course.

Suzanne Higgins – Credentialed Mental Health Nurse – 0491 005 804

Suzanne offers mental health counselling for women and men who are experiencing challenges during their pregnancy or in the early months and years after the birth.

Suzanne has a passion for Perinatal and Infant Mental Health and her areas of expertise include:

• anxiety and depression,
• grief counselling – including pregnancy loss,
• adjustment disorder,
• parent-infant relationship issues,
• post-traumatic stress (related to events around the pregnancy or birth),
• role overload and
• poor family of origin experiences.

Suzanne strongly feels that it is such an important life stage and that it is a privilege to support families during this time.

Suzanne provides counselling at The Birth House, and at another venue in Highton.

Suzanne works within an Alliance with Pritchard Health which enables some Medicare rebates for clients who come with a GP referral under the Psychological Therapy Scheme. In order to access this scheme, people need to meet certain criteria which GPs will explore before making the referral. The GP needs to nominate either Suzanne Higgins or Pritchard Health as the preferred provider on the referral form. This will mean there is no gap payment for up to 10 sessions per year as it is fully funded by Medicare.

People may also choose to self-fund and Suzanne is happy to discuss this option with potential clients.

Suzanne can be contacted on 0491 005 804. When you make contact she will explain the options for accessing her services and assist with referral processes where necessary. She is also happy to discuss whether she is the ‘right’ counsellor for you and if not, to give you the name of others who may best suit your needs.
In a crisis you would be best served by seeing your local GP or contacting the 24 hour Access line on 1300 094 187.

Womb 2 Move – Postnatal yoga for mums and bubs

Postnatal yoga for mums and bubs incorporates yoga practices which are uniquely suited to help you regain your core-strength and overall fitness after birth by restoring tone to the deep muscles of the pelvis and lower back.  Babies are included in these birthlight postnatal yoga classes; interactive mother and baby yoga moves promote ‘active bonding’ in age appropriate ways through the first weeks and months. All Birthlight postnatal yoga practices are suitable for mothers who have given birth by caesarean section.

Birthlight postnatal yoga invites mothers to create a new foundation for better fitness while being energised from within and enjoying their babies fully.
