RG words+photo @catalina.clark 🙏🙏🙏 ///// I FUCKING loved giving birth. • I’m not sure the people around me would have felt the same way based on their observations of me. But that’s exactly the point. Your birth is about YOUR experience, not what other people think or feel about it. • I was screaming, crying and literally punching the walls of my bathroom and I loved every second of it. I felt so powerful, wild and free. It’s an experience I think about often and a sensation I crave to feel again and again. • Immediately after giving birth I felt more physical pain than I ever felt throughout the entire labor and birth. The sensations that we’re moving through my body with each contraction weren’t physical pain. • They were emotions. • I was shedding all the layers of myself, all the armor built up over time from my limiting beliefs, self shame, trauma and the stories we make up about ourselves and believe that they are true. And the most beautiful thing I learned was that it was all a lie. I am not any of those things I thought I was. We are all love, we are whole and complete with everything we need inside ourselves. Birth unlocked this magic within me that continues to unfold. • This is what I’m talking about when I say there is such a HUGE opportunity for transformation in birth. When your vulnerability cracks wide open you can go one of two ways, stay small and stuck or be open and curious to where these lessons may lead you. . . 📸 @rebeccacoursey_photosandfilm #birthstory #freethenipple #stopcensoringbirth #homebirth
