Hello,
just a quick reminder of the National Caesarean
Awareness Day celebration that will be held this Saturday at Waterfall Gully
from 3.30pm -
Restoring the Birthing Woman Within:
a day of emotional healing.
A day of emotional
healing is a time to share and express our emotions in a positive and meaningful
way.
The day will
incorporate story telling, those who feel comfortable can share their own
personal story, a poem, a prayer or picture. If you are unable to attend
but still wish to share your thoughts, you may like to contribute to the booklet
to be produced after the day "Expressions of Emotional Healing". We
welcome all contributions and you can submit yours on the web site :
www.cares-sa.org.au
Each woman is also
invited to bring the petals of her favourite flower(s) to scatter over the
flowing water during the ceremony; symbolically cleansing and giving away.
Candles will be lit around the nation to link each states events. Candles
will be on sale on the day for a small cost.
Please keep in
mind:
- the weather forecast is for
rain, so please bring an umbrella or two if you have spare and dress
warm!
- partners are welcome however
the location is NOT suitable for young children (small babies excluded) as there
is no pram access, the area for the ceremony is quite small and the
waterfall is easily accessible for children. CARES SA advise that it is
not safe for young children. It is also a time for adults to share
emotions that some young children may not understand and could cause
distress. CARES SA has always welcomed and catered for children, however
we must regretfully stress that this event may not be suitable.
Please feel
welcome to invite others whom you may think may benefit for this very special
event. We look forward to seeing you on the day! And remember if you
can not make it, you can still contribute to the booklet "Expressions of
Emotional Healing".
yours in
birth
Jo, Carolyn and
the exceptional women of the CARES SA core group.
