01 Jan Sacred Placenta: Wisdom of your Origin
The Placenta, the root of your origin, is a miraculous organ that sustained and protected you when you were born and continues to influence you throughout life. Sadly, most placentas are discarded as medical waste. How has this organ, fundamental to our survival and wellbeing, come to be considered as garbage?
“Sacred Origin: The Wisdom of the Placenta” is an intimate experience where women gather to reclaim the placenta’s sacredness and create a safe container to honor their own placental story. You will learn about the placenta’s biological role in sustaining life, its unique relationship with both baby and mother, and discover how different cultures worldwide have honored it through rituals and ceremonies.
During this journey, you will explore your personal connection to the placenta through ritual theater and create your own symbolic representation through embroidery art. The session includes educational content, embodied practices, meditative embroidery, group sharing, and concludes with a special ceremony.
This experience welcomes pregnant women, mothers, birth workers, womb keepers, and anyone interested in deepening their understanding of this sacred organ.
Ana Paula Jimenez will be sharing Sacred Placenta: Wisdom of your Origin and Chicha: Lineage of the Corn Woman.
