The Holistic Pregnancy: Empowered Birth Course
The True Magic Of Your Birth Experience.
Your birth experience should be special and unique to you…not just an in-and-out checklist at the hospital.
As a home-birth midwife since 2012, I have had the honor of supporting countless couples preparing to welcome a new child into their lives.
My name is Rachael Jean and I am so passionate about supporting women and families in having transformational birthing experiences that create empowerment in the transition to parenting.
- Are you a first time mom who wants to overcome personal blocks and limitations to prevent trauma in labor and birth or someone who wants to treat this pregnancy as an opportunity to personally transform by bringing more meaning to an already powerful life event?
- Are you already a mother who had a negative pregnancy, birthing, or post partum experience in the past and wants to heal trauma from the past to better prepare for this birth?
- Have you noticed a repeating negative pattern in your personal life or relationships that you want to address NOW to transform your life?
- Are you aware of healing needed in your family lineage that you want to take personal responsibility for by cultivating your own self awareness?
- Are you a pregnant person who wants to experience the healing potential of pregnancy and birth as a rites of passage to heal old wounds, transform your birthing experience, gain self knowledge of perceptions and limiting beliefs that cause you suffering in your life?
- Are you choosing a hospital birth this time around but want to experience adjunct care that wishes to support your emotional and spiritual needs and is offered by a midwife?
If the video and subsequent questions sparked something inside you, something powerful, then it’s time to join a community of like-minded parents who want to get the most out of their childbirth experience.
The Modern-Day Pregnancy Experience
The biggest problem that the vast majority of expecting parents have is that they are NOT being provided a safe space to go into this powerful and life-changing experience of pregnancy and birth fully prepared…
Now, this could be a transformative and empowering experience IF you have all the right mental and emotions tools, but too often these get overlooked and your entire experience feels uncertain and riddled with anxiety.
Sound familiar?
And to make things even more challenging, our culture and healthcare system has failed to truly give your pregnancy and birth the honor and reverence it deserves.
Unfortunately, our medical system has reduced your entire pregnancy experience to a mere collection of physical symptoms that your Care Provider tallies on a chart. Meanwhile, our culture sugarcoats the joyousness of this event without even acknowledging your everyday struggles, and the nuances of what it takes to become a good parent…
Stepping Into Something Different
In my 9 years of working with expecting parents, I cannot even tell you how many seemingly normal and healthy births resulted in traumatic experiences for the parents, who were facing unresolved parts of themselves during the intensity of labor and birth.
Now, had these people been emotionally and spiritually prepared during pregnancy, these challenges could have been completely avoided, giving them the confidence to step into the role of parent, and show up fully for their new child feeling resourced and ready.
After witnessing this frustrating story unfold time and again with so many expecting parents, and also seeing the immense empowerment available to parents who were given the proper tools, I can tell you the difference between the two is night and day…
And that’s exactly why I created the Holistic Pregnancy: Empowered Birth Course. This course addresses the full-spectrum experience of pregnancy and birth, by exploring your own inner-workings, and how they relate to the world around you. This course also provides expecting parents more meaning and context to get the most out of this powerful experience.
How The Holistic Pregnancy: Empowered Birth Course Works
Elemental Birth Rites invites you to experience pregnancy and birth as a vehicle for growth and self-development. Think of it as your pregnancy support team, but instead of giving you a checklist of action items and to-do lists, we coach you through the spiritual experience of creating life.
Together we journey through 10 online modules that provide a roadmap for reclaiming pregnancy and birth as a rites of passage. By honoring the emotional, physical, mental and spiritual layers of your experience, your whole being is invited to participate in preparing to meet you new child.
MODULE 1: Aligning With Your Journey
Welcome to your pregnancy! You are entering a very unique portal of transformation as you grow your baby and live towards your birth. You have access to the most powerful archetypes of creation during this time.
MODULE 2: Honoring The Universal Mother
In this module, you will explore your relationship to your mother; what you want to leave behind, what you want to hold on to and pass down as you step into the role of new mother.
MODULE 3: Honoring The Universal Father
Here you will explore your relationship to your father, what you want to leave behind, what you want to hold on to and pass down and how your needs for support can be directly communicated and met through your relationships.
MODULE 4: Honoring Your Heart
Explore your resistances and learn how to resource yourself. You will learn to connect to your needs and make space for the innocent, vulnerable aspects of yourself that only want to be heard and loved.

MODULE 6: Feeling Emotions As Water

MODULE 7: Grounding Into Earth
Call upon the physical body to show you where you are blocked, deliver the messages of the spirit manifested through physical symptoms, and inform you how you can treat your body as the living temple that it is.
MODULE 8: Igniting The Fire
Aligning with the Fire as a tool to call your spirit into yourself you are creating space and time for the inner fire of the spirit to be tended with fierceness and compassion.
MODULE 9: The Crystalline Vision
Call upon the Ether to guide you in your thinking, help you make choices, and ultimately determine what you say and do when you are steering the ship instead of your unconsciousness.
MODULE 10: Integration of the Journey
As you are almost upon your birth, it’s time to tie it all together and deeply tune in with the tools you have found most helpful for the upcoming birthing ceremony and beyond.

Here’s what 3 mothers have to say about their experiences after completing the Holistic Pregnancy: Empowered Birth Course
“When someone asks me for recommendations of things that really helped me in my pregnancy and birth, the first thing I mention is the Elemental Birth Rites Holistic Pregnancy: Empowered Birth Course journey. I can’t even begin to articulate all of the ways this experience assisted me in my pregnancy, birth and postpartum experience. From the first module, I found myself entering such a potent guided exploration of all aspects of the journey ahead. I experienced deep healing through the different modules, working with my own inner child, the mother and father archetypes within and without, and each of the elements. As each module came along, I would notice that my life was serendipitously providing me experiences to work with the material on many levels. “
Melissa
“Moving through the Elemental Birth Rites Holistic Pregnancy: Empowered Birth Course journey became a deeply powerful tool for coming to terms with my previous birth and preparing the way for my new child. I believe that I was able to stand by myself in the birthing process (and since), find my voice, and deal with pain differently because of this work. When my labor became intense I was able to use air and sound to shift the pain. When I needed support I was able to connect with (for me) water to relax and have a break. Finding places where I was stuck, raw, or powerful and acknowledging those states, gave me resources to call on. When I was tired and in pain I was able to ask for help, and I was able to be with myself the whole time.”
Morgan
“One of the biggest challenges during my pregnancy was the fear of birth and safety of my child. The fear at times felt overwhelming and although I wanted a home birth experience, I was worried that my own anxieties about my daughter’s safety would create a block during my labor. I used The Fire Transforms Fear tool I learned in the Holistic Pregnancy: Empowered Birth Course daily at the end of pregnancy to help work through that fear, confronting the thoughts and focusing on redirecting my energy to the experience I wanted to have. Learning to sit with the fear instead of ignoring it and letting it fester prior to my labor helped me face the challenges that inevitably reappeared during my delivery. Throughout my daughter’s birth, I revisited the positive affirmations I had formed through art and journaling and was able to surrender and find peace with the birthing process. Although my pregnancy is over, the work learned in this course never stops as my husband and I both continue healing with the tools we received from this course. I can’t thank Elemental Birth Rites enough for creating this course and I am forever grateful for it’s part in my daughters earth side journey. “

Frequently Asked Questions
So you probably have some questions about this course, and I want to make sure that you feel good about joining our community, so here’s a few Frequently Asked Questions that will help you get an understanding of just exactly what you’re getting.
As a midwife, I wrote this course to mirror my time with families during pregnancy and in preparing them for birth over 3 trimesters so this tends to be my area of focus and how the course is set up. That being said I do not want anyone to feel that because they are late in pregnancy, still trying to get pregnant, or trying to integrate a birth that has already happened, that this work is not suited for them.
The most important aspect of the coursework is that you take time to sit with each module and really do the suggested rituals, practices, and exercises recommended to get the most out of your experience. Please do not feel rushed as the work in these modules can benefit you at anytime in life and may be a wonderful support in preparing for a pregnancy, during fertility treatment, if you are postpartum and still trying to digest what occurred in your experience, or late in pregnancy as a way to feel you have done that final prep piece to feel ready to birth.
Know that if you birth within your journey through the course and are unable to finish all the modules, you can trust the timing of your story and how it unfolded within the medicine wheel. You can pick up or return to any of the modules in the course at any time in your life to really work with the exercises and experiences suggested to get the most out of them. This course is an introduction to a new way of viewing life and its challenges and since healing truly is a lifetime journey, the benefits of this work proposed in this course truly will never expire!
Although the wording of the course addresses women’s experience of pregnancy, this work is easily adapted for expecting couples to get the most out of preparing for birth together. Our team of midwives at Elemental Birth Rites work closely with couples during pregnancy and we strongly encourage birth partners who will also be parenting this new being to also do the suggested work in this course. This work is valuable for all expecting parents to clear their fields and do the necessary healing to arrive at the initiation gateway of birth feeling resourced. This work is intended for all and we openly welcome all genders, races, and spiritual seekers to get the most out of this sacred rites of passage.
Yes! This course does not claim to substitute or replace medical care and supervision. Although our Elemental Birth Rites team includes professional health-care providers who do supervise pregnancies and births, this course is a supplement to the care we provide to our clients and to you.
This course is a great adjunct to all modalities of obstetric support, no matter where you plan to give birth and who is caring for you in your pregnancy. We are midwives that support you fully in whatever birth plan you are preparing and hope to connect you with getting the most out of this time while you are receiving the prenatal care that is best suited for you and your family. This course is focused on emotional and spiritual preparedness in birth so you can rest assured knowing that the material in this course will not be redundant to the offerings of your primary health-care provider.
If you have any other questions regarding the Elemental Birth Rites Course, please do not hesitate to reach out to me via email. I’m always happy to hear your story and answer any questions I can to help you along your journey!
