Intuitive Birth Art Workshop

This workshop is for you, if you are pregnant and want to get more in touch with your natural inborn ability to give birth.
It is run by me, Lena Chandler I am an ex-midwife, teacher, complementary therapist and artist. I have led workshops in natural birth since 1984 and have made CDs for fertility, pregnancy and birth. We will play the Intuitive Birth CD during the workshop and you get one to take home to use.

We will play with and create personal, inspiring images without any pressure on artistic ability. It will be fun and very beneficial to you.
