Demystifying Orgasmic Birth

Educational and How-to interactive workshop about Conscious Conception,  Ecstatic Birth, and Neutralizing Birth Trauma.

Thursday • 2:30–4:30 PM
Presented by Marly Benedicto
Hosted by Gaia Temple
Location: Casa Awänímä, Yoga Shala

For lovers, dreamers, creators, parents, and anyone who wants to birth life and projects from pleasure instead of fear.

This class intentionally follows the morning session at Maltiox, Casa Tortuga Natural Birthing Project: Sovereign Birth, Midwifery & Community-Supported Motherhood and is intentionally scheduled to flow into the Vocal Tantra session afterward (deepening a pleasurable relationship between embodiment, voice, and vision).

About the Workshop

Demystifying Orgasmic Birth is an interactive and educational workshop exploring the origins of birth trauma, the pathway to ecstatic birthing, and how the principles of conscious conception — whether you are birthing a child, a project, or a version of yourself.

We explore birth as a human rights movement—reclaiming it as a natural, powerful rite of passage rather than a medicalized event. You will learn how trauma patterns arise around birth, how they imprint the nervous system impacting us throughout life, and how they can be neutralized and transformed to reclaim birth and creation as a pleasure-centered, empowered, body-led experience.

This workshop is for:
• those who want children
• singles and couples
• those who want to neutralize birth trauma
• creators birthing projects, visions, and ventures

The principles of ecstatic birthing apply to everything you bring into the world.

What We’ll Learn

We will cover:

• A history of birthing practices:
  midwifery → colonization → monetization → medicalization

• How birth became a systemically disempowered field and how to recover it.

• How trauma patterns originate from birth experiences and play out in every day life into adulthood.

• How to neutralize birth trauma held in the nervous system

• The principles of ecstatic birthing

• Preparing your body, mind, and environment for new life

• Conscious conception: connecting to the spirit of a future child or project.

• Approaching major life transitions with pleasure, clarity, and choice

This is both educational and experiential.

Guided Practice

This session includes:
• a guided meditation to connect with the spirit of your future child, project, or creation
• movement practices to circulate life force energy through the body
• practices to awaken voice, breath, and sensual power
• tools for pleasure-led decision making

Practices are gentle and suitable for all bodies.

Why It Matters

Birth is the first imprint each human receives.
Patterns formed around birth often shape our:

• relationship to change

• sense of safety

• ability to ask for needs

• creativity and expression

• relationship to the body

• ability to receive pleasure

• capacity for leadership

By understanding and unwinding birth trauma, we can create new patterns for ourselves, our families, and our future projects — approaching major life transitions with excitement instead of fear.

Ecstatic birth is not only for childbirth — it is a paradigm for creating anything, anchored in:
• empowerment
• choice
• pleasure
• deep nervous system safety
• alignment with purpose

About the Approach

This workshop is informed by:

• birth psychology

• somatic nervous system science

• trauma resolution methods

• conscious conception practices

• embodied creativity and life-force theory

No previous experience is required.
