Welcome back to Fear Free Childbirth! In today's episode, I want to explore how we can measure healing progress when we're undertaking personal development work, or healing. And in doing so I'd like to share a tool that I think can help you with this called the Map of Consciousness.


How to Measure Healing Progress in Pregnancy and Birth
Have you ever invested time and energy into courses, therapy or retreats to bring about a change in how you feel, only to wonder if they're really making a difference?

We all have, right?

Today, I want share a powerful tool that you can use to measure the effectiveness of these activities in overcoming fear, anxiety, and finding calm and peace.

Once I discovered this method of measuring healing progress I decided to revisit my own healing journey around overcoming tokophobia, and my pregnancy fears and anxieties; I wanted to see what it would tell me.

And it's fascinating!

In today's episode, we'll explore the concept of consciousness and how understanding your own state of mind can give you clues as to where you are on your healing journey.

So, let's dive in and learn how to measure the effectiveness of our healing work or therapeutic methods, and ultimately, achieve fear-free childbirth.
Going from Fearful to Fearless: And Being Able to Demonstrate the Change
In this insightful podcast episode, I want to help you to embark on a journey of self-discovery and healing as we explore a series of thought-provoking questions;

How do you personally measure the effectiveness of your healing work or therapeutic practices?
Have you ever experienced a significant shift in your level of consciousness? If so, what factors do you believe contributed to that shift?
Do you think it's important to have a tool or method to track progress in overcoming fears and anxieties?
How do you distinguish between temporary feelings of happiness and true progress in your healing journey?
Have you ever felt trapped in repeating negative patterns or self-destructive behaviours? How did you break free from them?
What role do you think self-awareness plays in the healing journey? How has it impacted your own progress?
How do you perceive the relationship between your level of consciousness and your emotional well-being?
Are there any specific life events or experiences that have significantly impacted your personal growth and healing journey?

These questions will guide our exploration into the realms of personal transformation, self-awareness, and the various tools and experiences that contribute to our individual healing journeys.
