Good morning. Are you following along this week? I feel like this week's journey has awakened me. Many people say that our Indigenous cultures 'resonate' with them but admiration and imitation are empty without a real respect and honest understanding of our ways of knowing. I was taught to share and to you I pass the responsibility of learning. So if you choose to follow us or imitate us, I ask that you do it in the most honest and kindest of ways. Good intentions will get you everywhere and Good Mind is a gentle way of being.

In general, many Indigenous cultures walk alongside of and in co-operation with 'Creation'. Creation is all living things together; it is understanding that the natural world is our family. If you choose to follow along this honest and organic path with me, you may find some fulfillment that you had forgotten about in this world of 'things', 'materials' and 'schedules'.

This is not organized religion and I ask you not to bring your religion to this conversation. Words like 'blessed be', 'blessed', 'amen' can be very triggering for some Indigenous viewers and they are not welcome on my page. Use your own words - words that are encouraging, holistic, inclusive, open and honest - those are the only words allowed on this page. I will appreciate that very much.

When, Where & How you place your hands on a laboring mother can either hinder or progress labor.

Discover in depth, the proper techniques, protocols & hand placements to enhance comfort & progress labor during childbirth in our online doula training.

When, Where & how:

Tubercles: Positioning your hands at the front of the tubercles to gently pull back creates space in the inlet making room for fetal engagement and rotation

Sacrum: Applying Palm/finger pressure toward the top of the sacrum, assists in outlet opening

Ilium and iliac crest: Applying fingers over iliac crest and Palms against the ilium pressing inward, facilitates outlet opening

Ischial tuberosities/Sitz bones: Applying counter pressure using palms, countering the mother bearing down, pushing outwards, facilitates outlet expansion creating room for baby to rotate and descend
