A Celebration of Motherhood Ceremony

  • Scituate Salt Cave 164 Front Street Scituate, MA 02066 USA (map)

This ceremony is a heartfelt celebration of the transformative journey into motherhood. It’s a meaningful experience that can be embraced at any point post-transition into motherhood. Even years later, this ceremony offers a poignant opportunity to honor and acknowledge the profound essence of motherhood.

Central to the ceremony is the ritual known as the 'Closing of the Bones.' It serves as a poignant testimony to a mother's path into this new phase of life—offering a space for reflection, reclamation, and the release of what no longer serves her. The ceremony involves a nurturing cocooning process using rebozos and incorporates other ceremonial elements such as music and songs.

The symbolic 'unwrapping process' signifies the transition into embracing the newfound role of 'mother,' symbolizing a stepping stone into this transformative phase.

This offering holds a special place in recognizing the transition from maidenhood to 'motherhood.' While numerous resources support expectant mothers during pregnancy, there's often a dearth of support in the postpartum phase. This ceremony is designed to provide a visible platform for women, allowing their stories and transitions to be witnessed. It offers a space for self-reclamation and the letting go of aspects of their journey that may no longer resonate or serve their evolving selves. It's a profound opportunity for each woman to be truly 'seen' and acknowledged.
