Testimonial for Zen Holmes, CD(DONA), LMT

Zen

zen/noun

a Japanese school of Mahayana Buddhism emphasizing the value of meditation and intuition.

.... This sums up how I felt about Zen at my sons birth. From the time we met I felt comfortable and like we were exchanging good energy. It was her first experience as a doula and I still felt strongly that she was the right fit. I was right.

We met through a group of amazing people while I was pregnant. Her name was in my mind as a possible choice for my baby, prior to meeting her. So, we connected.

She was in contact with me throughout the pregnancy suggesting many things like herbs oils healthy food stretching exercising and strengthening my body for labor. We met twice prior to the birth and once the baby was on the way she spent the entire day and night with me until we saw his cute little face. I was in labor for 22 hours most of which was extremely painful. Zen's massage techniques were key. She worked tirelessly the entire night on my body to make sure I was comfortable. She also made sure to have my birthing plan with her at all times so if we came across any kind of disagreement with the doctor she was there to be my cheerleader. She knew the right questions to ask and she knew exactly what I wanted and defended it.

The experience I had with Zen was one I would recommend to anyone having a baby. She's responsible, loving, caring, gentle and great at what she does.

Any questions? Feel free to contact me.
