Body Confidence Course

    Body Confidence Course for Post-Natal Mums

Having a baby changes your life in so many ways. Changes you never could have predicted! 

With images everywhere of celebrities popping back into shape faster than you can say “three nannies and a personal trainer”, it’s no wonder that many people feel disillusioned with their own experience of what’s left of your body after pregnancy.  We have very few positive role models in the media.

When you’re pregnant you count down the days until your due date.  You watch your body change with fascination – some aspects of pregnancy are wonderful, others really not so...but be honest, back then did you ever think much about how your body would look and feel after your baby had arrived?

There are many changes, sometimes unexpected and not easily talked about...excess skin, saggy boobs, stretch marks, scars, haemorrhoids, prolapse, weight gain, changes to your libido levels, pain during sex, back ache, pain following episiotomy, incontinence...the list goes on.

Some of these changes get better by themselves over time, some need a little work and others are irreversible.

So what can we do to accept our new bodies and learn to love ourselves again?

Lack of confidence can hold us back from living a full life.  It can make us feel more anxious, less sociable, affect our relationships with our partner and friends, lead us to make unhealthy choices, like comfort eating, and lessen our quality of life.  Well enough’s enough.  I want to help you to release yourself from this negative loop and break free.  Whether your baby is 6 weeks or 16 years old, I want to help you to learn to love your body, be thankful for the amazing things it does and feel fabulous again.

 Client Testimonial:

Sarah is an excellent coach. Her coaching style is empathetic, yet challenging and insightful. She uses her intuition well and is not afraid to voice impressions which invariably lead to a greater degree of clarity for the client. She is also an extremely positive coach. No matter how confused and bogged down I may have felt at the beginning of a coaching session, the issues get unravelled with ease, leading to a clarity that unleashes energy to move forwards again. The 'clearwater coach' is a perfect name for Sarah! If you want to get moving and make some changes I would highly recommend her.
