Claire Eccleston - Gentle Bodywork for Physical, Sexual or Emotional Wounding

Today’s guest, Claire Eccleston, is a mother of three beautiful children, an experienced registered midwife, a Spinning Babies® approved trainer, a biodynamic craniosacral therapist and a STREAM (‘scar tissue remediation, education and management’) practitioner. Claire has been supporting women’s transitions since 2000, attending births, offering childbirth education, pregnancy yoga and providing bodywork sessions.

In this episode of the Healing Birth podcast, Claire speaks passionately about the following topics:

• Birth as a rite of passage
• Grooming leading to a distrust in, and lack of safety, surrounding our bodies and our births
• The power of our wombs and vaginas - shame as a tool to suppress us 
• Using touch, breath and movement as birth preparation tools
• Scar tissue healing
• Resuming sex after a traumatic birth
• Gentle trauma release - safety is paramount
• Yoni mapping
• Language and communication
• Consent and boundaries
