Womb Heart Voice Journey, holistic voice work for pregnant women
by Elenne Klok/My Birthing Voice
A shared journey in which we use the voice as healing medicine to open and express what is moving within you. Involving the voice in your pregnancy journey allows you to return again and again to your truth and your wise body that speaks. She is the expression of your intuition to the outside world. When you feel free to sound, you can sink into your individuality and power.
Throughout your pregnancy we give space to your authentic sound with voice meditation, gentle body exercises, beautiful songs and free expression. We work past blockages around the voice, the learned patterns and assumptions that have come along from your female lineage. We move through themes that ground you in the preciousness of your body and make you wonder about the power of your body, and the preciousness of your truth. So that you can inhabit your body a layer deeper and deeper and give voice to your deep self, in your life and in your birthing.
My voice cannot wait to meet your voice in all your truth, and to be allowed to remind you of the Birthing Voice that is present within you. You can read more, feel further and register on my website. I look forward to seeing you, love Elenne

Embodied Consent, Communication for Professionals- with Mariëtte Frits
Communication appears to be the key word in the experience of any pregnancy, childbirth and postpartum period. Many women experience their childbirth as traumatic. Here, research shows that it is not about the act or procedure itself, but about the manner of communication.
How do you ensure clear communication with your client so that she retains direction and autonomy? This workshop will provide you with many practical tools, tips and handles. You will practice and experience at first hand the difference between undergoing and receiving; maintaining autonomy or being “taken over by”.

For:Massage therapists, bodyworkers, yoga teachers working on a mat on the floor. (This technique is of limited use on a massage table).

My Birthing Voice workshop
voice work for pregnant women by Elenne Olsthoorn-Klok
A morning of expression and connection; with your authentic voice, your heart, your pelvis and the baby growing within you.
This is a workshop you can attend at all stages of your pregnancy. You will be assisted in a safe bed so that you can let your sound be heard in freedom. All vibrations in the jaw and throat are a powerful way to bring the nervous system to peace and calm. When your jaw and throat are relaxed, so are your yoni and pelvic floor.
During a My Birthing Voice workshop we will:
– Connect: through voice meditations, body work and powerful songs.
– Feel: how your voice connects you to your primal power and authentic self.
– Follow: we follow your wise body in what its needs and indicates.
What you take away after this morning:
– Gratitude for your own voice.
– You know more about and have felt the connection between your jaw and pelvis.
– You feel freedom around using your voice during pregnancy and parturition.
Do you long for autonomy and connection during your pregnancy?
For peace around making noise, beyond all shame and blockages?
You are welcome!
Singing experience is not necessary.
