Join experienced doula Lisa Wilkinson for a three-hour workshop that will give you a deeper understanding of how you, your baby, and your body prepares for labour and birth. You will gain knowledge to help you to support this normal physiological process.

Lisa has been supporting women in hospital and home through her work as a doula and birthing educator for over 20 years. Mother to two, she is passionate about advocating for choice and informed consent. Lisa will discuss the anatomy and physiology of the stages of labour, explore the use of a birthing ball and different yoga postures to promote optimal fetal positioning, widen pelvic diameters and encourage supportive movements that will help to ease and manage discomfort and contractions as you progress through labour. Lisa places a great emphasis on empowering partners to support birthing women and provide the best atmosphere to encourage the progression of labour and birth in the safest way possible.

Over the years countless midwives have recalled how women who attend independent birthing workshops and practice yoga as a preparation for birth utilise what they have learned to the greatest advantage. Focus will be on how to use breathing and relaxation techniques will prepare you mentally, facilitating production of essential endorphins and oxytocin. We wish to inform, empower and increase your and your partner’s confidence as you approach the birth of your baby.
