Talking about the loss of a child can be difficult and even taboo for many reasons. Our society seems to rally around those who are expecting quickly. Still, it may feel uncomfortable comforting or discussing pregnancy loss with someone who is grieving, leaving those who are mourning alone and isolated. Yve’s course “Into the Womb” made discussing, exploring, and healing from the losses a possibility.

After attending Yve’s four-week course “Into the Womb,” dedicated to making peace with the loss and honoring the children we've lost through miscarriage or loss of a child. I am profoundly grateful for the knowledge and guidance provided. Yve generously shared her shamanic wisdom with depth and sensitivity to illuminate paths toward healing I hadn't known before. Her ability to weave personal stories, using the Divine as our guide, created a rich, supportive environment where we all felt seen and understood.

Yve’s approach to dealing with loss—emphasizing acceptance, love, and each individual's unique journey—was particularly enlightening. She provided us with tools to not only cope with our loss but also honor our children's memory in meaningful ways. This experience has shifted my perspective, encouraging me to embrace my feelings without judgment and to find strength in vulnerability.

As the weeks unfolded, the shared experiences and collective wisdom of the group, guided by Yve, created a bond among us that was both healing and empowering. This course has been a pivotal step in my journey, offering not just strategies for recovery but also a newfound sense of community.

I am leaving this course with not only peace but a heart full of gratitude for the lessons learned and the gentle guidance of Yve.
