Description

Hosted by nurse-midwife Lena Wood, this podcast explores how to integrate mindfulness into the messy and unpredictable mix of pregnancy, birth, and parenting. This podcast is for all of you who are looking for a childbirth education and parenting resource that’s authentic, practical, and accessible. Pregnancy and birth are just the beginning of the life-long journey of parenting, a journey I would venture to say most of us are not really confident we’re ready for. And because we all know that book learning alone does not help us get through some of life’s most challenging moments, the heart of this podcast will be learning and practicing mindfulness techniques together.

Learning how to notice without self-judgement is a life-long process, and I share what it can feel like on the ground in real life to notice and then let go.
