The Body Remembers

The author Anne Matthews developed the Baby Body Language (BBL) approach, which is about understanding a baby’s life in the womb, during labour and delivery and how very early life experiences can develop and influence their early years.

Early imprints, or experiences, can leave subtle patterns in a child’s alignment that can impact balance, focus, sleep, speech & language and emotional development.

Understanding BBL is about understanding the imprints from your early experience in the womb and during birth and how they are communicated through your body language and behaviour.

This book is an empathic and sensitive explanation of what our children hold in their bodies, the impact it can have and how to begin the journey to resolve it. A must-read for parents, teachers, health care professionals... Anyone!

Constipation in babies and young children

Constipation issues in early childhood, ranging from newborns to toddlers, can be deeply intertwined with the state of the nervous system and the birth experience. Here's a progressive exploration of how these factors contribute to ongoing constipation for babies and children which may also prove challenging for a parent to manage

Sleep Issues in babies, toddlers and older children
Sleep Issues in babies, toddlers and older children

Sleep issues in babies, toddlers, and older children can sometimes be linked to a poorly integrated nervous system, which may be a result of a heightened state of alertness due to a triggered sympathetic nervous system, also known as their fight/flight response. This heightened state can be related to their life in the womb, their birth experience and the subsequent impact on the early setting of their vagal nerve tone.

Delivering a stillborn baby… 30 years on the memory still chokes me up

Phillip’s apparent unexplained death by health professionals became a motivating factor and a lifelong journey of personal and professional development which propelled me into the world of Pre & Perinatal Education. I have used my extensive knowledge and skills to help other mums and partners make sense of the traumatic deliveries and births they have experienced. I guide them on a path of healing their wounds through interpreting and understanding Baby Body Language and much more.

Through empathy, compassion, supportiveness and guidance we intend to inspire a transformational connection between people and within ourselves.
