Pain as power in the birth process with Georgia Takacs

Mentor Your Mind

Did you know that a birthing person can experience orgasm during labor? Evolutionary Astrologer and Sacred Activist Georgia Takacs takes us through how breathing is what took her through 47 hours of unmedicated labor. She went through a process of deconditioning her mind from seeing labor as a scary, painful event to reconditioning to have a birth that’s safe, calm, gentle, pleasurable and even ecstatic. Georgia explains that the South Node has moved into Libra, and the North Node into Aries, for the next 18 months. Through the lens of Astrology, she explains what it may look like for us to reckon with and release toxic patterns of being controlled and conditioned by power outside of ourselves, and instead taking back and owning our inherent power from within — as birth can doubtlessly gift us with. To experience pain as power in the birth process; to be able to surrender your mind and be in your body, as birth is truly outside of time and space. I hope you enjoy and are as empowered by this episode as much as I am!
