Gaia Mother Blessings


Class dance at Zahra al Layl

It is traditional for many cultures to celebrate and honour a woman’s journey into Motherhood.

Hannah's Mother Blessings (held in coordination with Gaia Goddesses) are a wonderful opportunity for womenfolk to gather together to offer their support, their wisdom and their blessings to the Mother-to-be and to the new life waiting to be born.

The Gaia Mother Blessing is held towards the end of the pregnancy and is an opportunity for the Mother-to-be to gather her female family members and friends for a joyous occasion. The Mother Blessing starts with Belly dancing, followed by the tradition of bathing the Mother-to-be’s feet whilst some poetry or affirmations are read.

The Mother-to-be’s head is adorned with a flower garland and her belly painted, providing a beautiful photo opportunity to record this special occasion.

Blessings bestowed by the guests are written on bunting as a keepsake and to hang in the nursery. Bracelets are given to each guest and a necklace to the Mother-to-be, to wear until baby is born, reminding each guest of their connectedness to the Mother-to-be and for the Mother to be reminded of the strength and support of all her friends and family.

The Gaia Mother Blessing is a fun and joyous occasion for all involved, it reminds of us the beauty and wonder of creation and gives us an opportunity to affirm our love and support for the Mother-to-be and the new baby waiting to be born.

Cost £25.00 per person, all inclusive. Minimum of 6 guests. Contact Hannah for more details on info@halfouinedance.co.uk
