What does experiencing a positive birth mean to you? Birth can be really transformative to people and can also be traumatizing. On today’s episode of Yoga| Birth| Babies, Moran Liviani shares how to prepare for a positive birth. Moran is a birth doula, hypnobirthing practitioner, and a placenta encapsulation specialist.
A positive birth doesn’t mean it will look exactly how you envisioned and there’s no idealized way one should birth. A positive birth is about how you feel after the birth and how you’re made to feel by the folks there. We will talk about the importance of education, understanding expectations, making sure if you’re partnered- how your partner is on board, how your full birth team is there to support you and how you need to be embraced during your birth experience. When you’re fully embraced through your journey, you can emerge feeling positive about your birth experience.

About Moran:
My name is Moran and I am a birth Doula, Lamaze childbirth educator, HypnoBirthing practitioner and a Placenta encapsulation specialist. I have been working with families in birth for 11 years now and it came as a work of passion which originally culminated from my own birth experiences. I have now supported hundreds of families through their birth preparation and through their births and I truly believe when women change their mindset around birth they open up the immense possibility of walking away from their births truly transformed into empowered mothers.
