“The innate caretaking side ALL MEN HAVE comes out in the birth room.”
Fathers & Birth: Serve Life’s Most Sacred Ceremony
Many men are scared of birth or think it doesn’t involve them. Dr. T’karima Ticitl shares how fathers can play an instrumental role in this sacred ceremony and show up in service to their woman. Dr. T’karima is both medically trained and indigenously informed, giving her a rare mastery of the practical and spiritual aspects of birth. We explore dynamics and principles WAY BEYOND birth, including how to balance Western medicine with tradition, how to walk in ceremony 24/7, and why community is often more like family than our blood relatives.
Highlights:
- Why connecting your purpose with service is ALL IMPORTANT!
- How can men support and connect with this ceremony of life?
- How to balance the science of birthing with experiential and native wisdom.
- Do men get caught up in the logistical aspects of birth?
- Why birth workers CANNOT replace the role of the father.
- Dispelling the myth that home births are only for the wealthy.
- The importance of men sharing their experience of birth.
- Does the birth process scare men?
- How Native American spiritual principles connect with Dr. T’karima’s work.
- Ways to instill principles and values into young children.
- How to balance western medicine, ideas, and philosophies with tradition.
