MOTHER IS QUEEN 40 DAYS POSTPARTUM CONFINEMENT … another valuable learning and observation from the incredible @wombsoftheworld summit.. @birthmatron taught us that In traditional Malaysian culture, during the first 40 days of postpartum, a mother is treated like royalty -
supported by the community,
massaged with special healing tinctures made from plants and spices,
bathed with ceremonial flowers,
offered blessings,
and wrapped in cloth to support her recovering body in a technique called Bengkung belly binding. All, to facilitate healing for the mother’s spirit and body as she enters this new stage of motherhood. A Mother Blessing ceremony was given by @parteradianaku from Equador to celebrate and support the mother’s transition into motherhood - offering blessings with flowers and flower crowns and singing. @partera.___yuu demonstrated elements of ‘Closing of the bones’- a postpartum or post-pregnancy loss ceremony to realign the body, bring the mother’s energy back to herself and ritualise the closing of this chapter. In all three cultures, these elaborate ceremonies or rites of passage play a fundamental role in the prenatal and postpartum period. Experiencing some of these rituals firsthand -so incredibly heartfelt and supportive - reminded me how powerful the acts of intention and ceremony truly are. Mother is goddess.
Birth is sacred. Grateful for all these incredible midwives, the birth workers who attended the eventthatwill be spreading their magic into the world, revolutionising maternal health 🩷 #wombsoftheworld #maternalhealth #birthjustice #global birthwork #yogaamsterdam #yogacommunity #deceuvel #yogaforeverybody #everybodyisayogabody #yogateacher by @a.kasha.space

CONNECTING WITH YOUR WOMB Feeling so inspired and in awe of the incredible Indigenous midwives I was lucky enough to learn from last week at the Wombs of the World summit in Berlin. The three main workshops were led by midwives from communities in Ecuador, Mexico, and Malaysia. Apart from being blown away by their wisdom surrounding maternal health and postpartum care, what I found so interesting was the crossover of techniques and practices from three different cultures in three different parts of the world. It also highlighted how far we in the West have drifted from these traditions—rooted in ceremony and intention. In all three communities, there was an emphasis on connecting to your uterus—both physically and emotionally. Martha and Luzmila from Ecuador taught us how to connect with the uterus physically and notice its position. Both they and Salva Salim and Mama Gie from Malaysia emphasized the importance of a central position for fertility and energetic health. I personally discovered that my womb was positioned low and back, and through the techniques shared, Martha moved it back to the center—which I could literally feel transitioning within my body. Sandra Bautista from Mexico explained how the uterus is the “second heart”—when we are happy, it expands, and when we are sad, it contracts. Through dancing and hip movement (twerking), we were able to expand our wombs and connect through touch on a more sensual and emotional level. I found all experiences profoundly moving and truly mind-blowing—to connect to this creative center and develop a deeper understanding and relationship with this sacred part of the body. So grateful to be able to attend this incredible event and for the sharing of this wisdom from the midwives and all of the other beautiful people who attended 🤍 If you’re interested in any of these topics, you can follow any of the midwives mentioned here & @wombsoftheworld. I’ll also be integrating my learnings into teaching pre-natal yoga soon and sharing other topics in the coming posts! @birthmatron @parteradianaku by @a.kasha.space

A SOUVENIR FROM ISRAELI PRISON A beautiful set of speeches this weekend at Dam square including words from brave souls & Dutch activists aboard the flotillas. The words reinforced how important it is to scale up the support for 🇵🇸 NOW more than ever. The journey has only just began. The g*n0CI*de continues, the blockage, the siege, the oppression, the famine amongst unimaginable destruction and devastation. Let’s make our voices LOUDER than ever, and our actions more POWERFUL than ever. FREE 🇵🇸 FREE 🇵🇸 FREE 🇵🇸 NOT A WAR NOT A CONFLICT NOT A PRISONER @m_kotesh_ @meryoema @roosykema by @a.kasha.space

BACKBENDS LUBRICATE THE SPINE 🦴 I love learning cool new stuff about yoga anatomy and the science behind why certain movements are so beneficial for the body, in addition to the energetic benefits. In a recent teacher training I learnt why backbends are so good for our spine anatomically - the movement compresses and releases the spinal facet joints which stimulate the synovial membrane to realise more fluid. Kind of like oiling a car 💧 💥 Important- Doesn’t matter the depth of your backbend- big or small- it’s just the act of moving the spine in a certain direction. We all have different shapes bones. Next week we’ll work through a heart opening sequence, targeting a selection of muscles in preparation for exploring backbends. Come join me 🤍 * Thursday 23 October 18:00 - 19:15 * Saturday 25 October 10:00 - 11:15 De Ceuvel, Korte Papaverweg 4, Amsterdam #yogaamsterdam #yogaamsterdamnoord #vinyasa #yoga #deceuvel #cafedeceuvel #yoga #vinyasa #tarot #yogacommunity #yogapractice #yogalove #deceuvel #yogaamsterdam #vinyasaflow #vinyasayoga #yogaforeverybody #everybodyisayogabody #yogateacherl taken in Café de Ceuvel by @a.kasha.space

TEMPERANCE FLOW - Inspired by tarot’s lessons from Temperance- inviting balance into our lives every form. Rest/play. Introversion/extraversion. Alone/company. Salad/Pizza. The lesson teaches us that we need these opposing elements to maintain a healthy yet fun and dynamic existence. We play with physical balance in this flow which is great for developing an innate sense of security in the body and challenging your body to work as one unit. One foot in water : One foot in the ground 💦 🌍 #yogaamsterdam #yogaamsterdamnoord #vinyasa #yoga #deceuvel #cafedeceuvel #yoga #vinyasa #tarot #yogacommunity #yogapractice #yogalove #deceuvel #yogaamsterdam #vinyasaflow #vinyasayoga #yogaforeverybody #everybodyisayogabody #yogateacher taken in Amsterdam, Netherlands by @a.kasha.space

Next week’s yoga lesson, 7th June, will be dedicated to the people of G@za with all proceeds going to G@za. The continued suffering and genoc*de being committed against our fellow humans, the P@lestinians, is getting worse and the criminals that are running this world continue to commit the cruelest and most barbaric crimes against humanity that we probably didn’t think was possible even in our wildest nightmares. I’m sure it leaves us all feeling beyond helpless, furious and distraught. Quite often we are sitting alone with these emotions on our screens as we watch these atrocities unravel. I thought to dedicate Saturday’s lesson to G@za to raise some proceeds and to hold the P@lestinians in our hearts and thoughts in communion with each other as we practice. Would love to have you there, shoot me a DM. FREE FREE P@LESTINE ❤️🖤🤍💚 p.s I am currently researching the best place to donate for this and future events. Whether that’s P@lestinian grass route aid providers or to companies that are organising the protests and petitions making the very necessary noise to pressure these criminals to intervene. If you have any info on this please let dm me. Thank you. taken in Amsterdam, Netherlands by @a.kasha.space

Working with hierophant energy (and cute dogs) which is the tarot card associated with Gemini season ♊️ we explore the teachings and ancient wisdoms of the yogic system of philosophy- Yoga chitta vritti nirodha (yoga controls the fluctuations of the mind). Nothing better to quiet down those ‘chitta vritti’ (mind chatter) than getting all tied and twisted up in your asana practice!
