Sacred Tuck In Ceremony

Sacred Tuck In Ceremony

In so many societies, birth has lost it's way - babies are conceived, carried and

birthed but the beauty, power and holistic significance of all of these stages has

become hidden, devalued and side tracked, often leaving in it's place a broken

path and a sense of trauma.  It is through ceremony and ritual that we will again

find, honour, respect, nourish and cherish the whole birth process, particularly the

vulnerability of a woman as she transitions into motherhood.  Closing the birth

process is critical for so many reasons - energetically to finish the process,

physically to heal the body and spiritually to step from woman into motherhood. 

A Sacred Tuck In Ceremony is a beautiful and powerful way to seal birth and to

enable a new mother to walk her motherhood path with physical, emotional and

spiritual wholeness.  The ceremony honours all that a woman has achieved in her

pregnancy and birth, provides her with a blessing as she moves forward into

motherhood and it envelopes her with warmth, strength and love.    Although a

Sacred Tuck In Ceremony is generally carried out within days/weeks of birth, It is

NEVER TO LATE for a woman to seal her birth!

What does a Tuck In Ceremony involve?

I will provide everything that is needed for your Sacred Tuck In

Ceremony and will carry this out in your home.  The ceremony

involves:

1) Setting up of the environment - the ceremony can be carried out on

top of your bed or on the floor (carpeted flooring is preferable for your

comfort).  I will create a beautiful, calm, relaxing and warm space

using candles, fairy lights, flowers, crystals and other items that

honour you as a postnatal mother.  If there are any items that are of

importance to you that you would like to have present during your

ceremony, I can easily incorporate these for you.

2) 6 soft cotton scarves are laid out on top of the bed/on the floor and rose petals are scattered on top.  On entry to the

ceremonial space, you will lie down on your back on these scarves.

3) Once you are lying down, I will place warmed lavender rice packs down the sides of your body and one by one, tie up each

scarf, providing you with a blessing as each scarf is tied.

4) After all the scarves are tied, you are able to relax and enjoy the warmth and relaxation whilst I play a beautiful piece of

music that honours you as a mother. 

5) After a short time, I will untie each scarf one by one to mark that the ceremony has come to an end.

Should you wish to have a Bengkung Belly Bind, this will be taught and applied after your Sacred Tuck In Ceremony.

"The birthing process in itself, as well as the minutes, hours, weeks, months and

years that unfold, have the power to make, break or heal a woman's soul - it is at the

gateway of birth into motherhood that every woman deserves the right to be

honoured, loved, respected and nourished through ceremony, ritual and blessings"
