Episode Description
Your uterus is one of the most powerful — and misunderstood — organs in your body. But if you’ve experienced a difficult or traumatic birth before, it can be hard to trust it.
In this gentle, informative episode, Katie explains:
- How the uterus works during labour (with insights from hypnobirthing and Mindful Birthing by Nancy Bardacke)
- Why fear can create tension in the uterine muscles — and how relaxation supports effective labour
- What your uterus needs to work well (movement, breath, and calm)
- How to rebuild body trust after trauma
- A short guided visualisation to reconnect with your body with kindness and compassion
✨ This isn’t about birthing a certain way — it’s about giving your body the support it needs to do what it’s designed to do.
