Sacred Pregnancy is pleased to announce that Kristin Revere has received her Sacred Postpartum certification at the first ever Art of Sacred Postpartum. She completed an intense four-day training at the Hostel in the Forest in Brunswick, Georgia, on September 1. Revere has been teaching Sacred Pregnancy birthing and pregnancy journey courses in Grand Rapids since April. She is the first person to be certified in Michigan as a Sacred Pregnancy instructor and for Sacred Postpartum services.
Revere is passionate about empowering women to have the birth, pregnancy and postpartum care they desire.
“As a Sacred Pregnancy instructor, my goal is to empower women in pregnancy and childbirth, and it made sense to be able to support them during their postpartum time, as well, by receiving this certification. I am drawn to the ways that women care for each other in tribal cultures during pregnancy and the postpartum time. Sacred Pregnancy’s new mother roasting program honors women and reflects those traditions. It is important to make this period of a new mother’s life sacred time. Women should be made to feel like queens during the postpartum period. I am thrilled to be able to provide this unique service to the new mamas of my community.”
Sacred Pregnancy believes that crossing the threshold from maiden to mother is a massive undertaking that not only needs to be recognized and ceremoniously honored, but deeply necessitates a healing touch that can welcome the new mother with open arms. Sacred Postpartum receivers are charged with holding space for women on the other side of birth, they are reminded of being reverent with their service to them, and are blessed to be a witness as each mother starts feeding her baby milk, heals her body, and begins to seal the rawness of her birth experience. The Art of Sacred Postpartum Mother Roasters are there to wrap new mothers in a blanket of their loving care, warm her insides, massage her, create herbal tinctures for her, educate her on placenta prana™, feed her soups, and gift her with ceremony.
Mother Roasters are caregivers who nurture new mothers after birthing while supporting their recovery and journey into motherhood; as every women deserves to be welcomed into motherhood through gentle loving care.
Some of the services that Revere offers through Sacred Postpartum include: Benkung belly binding, milk and honey honoring, relaxation rebozo techniques, sitz baths and peri-care, mandala flower art, conscious cooking techniques, mother blessings, and more.
