CAN BIRTH BE PAIN & TRAUMA-FREE? - THE ART OF A DOULA

Writer's picture: Mark PlayneMark Playne

One of my favourite segments at Tess Lawrie's 'The Better Way Conference' in Bath, was the section by Nickita Starck on the work of Doulas and natural birth.


So much so, I invited Nickita for an interview.


A must-watch for all prospective parents.


And a deep insight for those considering training in natural births - including traditionally trained midwives.


I found the interview not only entertaining but funny and deeply insightful.

When Push Comes To Shove

A message from Nickita


Systemic childbirth sabotage is very real & the number cause of birth trauma. Trauma is common but NOT normal. Birth is a natural process that very occasionally needs medical intervention, NOT a medical process that happens occasionally if you are lucky.

Coincidence or a connection "How A Doula Can Guide Pregnancy To A Pain & Trauma Free Natural Birth." I don't believe in the Big Bang coincidence theory, here is why .....

Seeing this overriding message was of immense therapeutic value to me. Even as a holistic practitioner with almost 50 years of background, I was 'unaware' that I, the Father, also suffered from this birth trauma twenty-eight years after. It all was released during that interview, and my thought is, how many grown men live with similar experiences without knowing it?


Nickita Starck, wow and thank you, you are an angel. My first deposit was, Of course, Marki always finds the best. Let me explain, I was out mowing…
