Postpartum Nature Circle for Birthing Parents & Babies
Wild Return is an intimate eight-week guided circle for birthing parents and mothers in the first year postpartum who want to reconnect with themselves, each other, and the living world around them.
Each week we gather in urban wild spaces for gentle walks, deep sharing circles, and grounding practices that support integration after birth. You care for your baby — and we care for you.
Childbirth is more than a medical event. It is a rite of passage. Wild Return honors the postpartum period as the essential return phase of initiation — the time when identity shifts, relationships reorganize, and instinct and intuition are reawakened.
Using the ancient myth of Inanna as a guiding framework, we explore themes of descent, surrender, power, grief, renewal, and coming home to the self you are becoming. The story offers a mirror and map — but your lived experience is the real text.
This is not group therapy. It is a professionally facilitated circle rooted in depth psychology, story, and nature connection, guided by a seasoned birthworker and educator who has attended hundreds of births and supported thousands of parents as they transition into their new identities and responsibilities.
The sharing can be tender, honest, and real — always held with care.
You do not have to navigate early motherhood alone.
You do not have to choose between tending your baby and tending yourself.
You can build meaningful community while your baby rests against your chest.
Together, we begin to rebuild the village — one circle at a time.
All you need is a baby carrier, sturdy shoes, warm layers — and a willingness to step outside.
Intimate. Non-judgmental. Deeply supportive.
Because birth is not the end of your story.
It is the beginning of your return.
Eight Sessions starting Thursday, Apr 16. Locations vary by week, but include Glen Canyon Park, Golden Gate Park and the Presidio.
