Postpartum Support Group (In Studio, babies welcome)
Led by + Katherine Mancera
Six Tuesdays 2:00 - 3:30 | 10/25, 11/1, 11/8, 11/15, 11/29, 12/6
The experience of birthing a child and caring for a newborn is profound and intense. In one moment you might marvel at the beauty and deep connection you feel with your child, the next you are hopeless and sobbing; and the next you are shoving a bagel into your mouth while trying to get baby to sleep. You deserve support as you navigate this remarkable new journey.
This postpartum support group, facilitated by a therapist and a birth/postpartum worker, offers space for you to:
Build community with other postpartum parents who understand what you’re going through
Feel held and supported as you share the gorgeous, painful, confusing, lonely or sweet parts of your journey
Explore a variety of topics including postpartum nourishment, sleep, nursing, infant care, identity, self care, recovery, and partner intimacy – any aspects of this new role in your life that need processing and untangling
Get support from a trained and experienced birth and postpartum worker and lactation educator on how to care for your healing body, troubleshoot nursing issues, etc.
Practice taking your baby out into the world
Postpartum parents with babies ranging from 2 weeks to 6 months old are welcome. We will cap our participant number at 12 and hope that each of you will be able to attend every session of the support group.
This group will run for six sessions on Tuesdays from 2:00 to 3:30 pm on the following dates: October 25, November 1, 8, 15, & 29, & December 6th.
Cost: $300

Sunday, August 7 | 5 - 7p | In Studio
Please join Leonora Willis and Gabriela Curbelo, L.Ac., prenatal specialist at Raven and Wren Wellness, for an evening of restorative yoga and acupuncture – for prenatal students only!
Leonora will begin with a dynamic practice, moving through a sequence including postures that aid in stabilizing, toning, strengthening and balancing the body to alleviate and prevent some of the common aches and pains of pregnancy. The second half of our time together will be spent in longer held restorative poses, incorporating breathwork strategies as well as labor visualization, meditation and affirmation recitation, during which students will also receive personalized acupuncture treatment from Gabriela.
You will be asked to complete online intake forms for your acupuncture care in advance of the workshop - this will give you the opportunity to inform Gabriela how she can best serve your individual needs. Post-workshop, Gabriela will share a personalized treatment plan with you outlining recommendations for ongoing prenatal support through acupuncture, herbal medicine and supplements, nutrition, and prenatal massage.
