Picture pregnancy as this vibrant garden, where everything is self-organizing toward growth. Lotus Birth is the natural bloom that follows. What a beautiful metaphor for birthing babies, a beautiful Lotus flower blooming upon the water, attached to the root-bulb under the water.

The placenta is this incredible organ that continues to nourish the baby post-birth, providing essential blood, nutrients, and even emotional continuity. I describe Lotus Birth as a "bridge" between the Womb and the World of Man, able to counter the disruptions of conventional practices that rush in and cut that connection short. When we avoid premature separation, we're essentially guarding the soul's rhythm, allowing younglings to emerge with their feeling-based instrument, their Will, intact. That means they can sense their yay—the pure joy of a sunny day playing outside or a creative spark that lights them up—and their nay—the unease of a crowded room or a decision that doesn't sit right.

In the lead up to a Lotus Birth journey, there can be this profound security that can be felt during pregnancy, knowing the placenta will play its full role, keeping the birthing space sacred and calm after the intensity of the delivery is complete. Much later, that child has this innate ability to articulate what's yay for them: "I love drawing because it makes me feel big inside," or "That game feels like a nay; it makes my tummy twist."

Yay to internal feeling-based relating as the natural course for navigation. By letting life bloom naturally through Lotus Birth, we're protecting that inner wisdom, the gut feeling that guides decisions. With that, the placenta's influence extends into lifelong harmony, helping younglings maintain emotional resilience, ensuring they can grow up confident in their own sensefelt truths.

Is it not fascinating that current standardized medical practices of the western, modernized mindset see the placenta as something to stop from performing its natural role and function by cutting, clamping, and then discarding it by incinerating it when and where possible?

In a world full of interference, birth as we mostly know it, can be kept sacred and in harmony with the natural order of our true Syntropic Human Ecology. Reclaiming the role and sacred nature of birth as a natural process can be safeguarded when the intention has simply been set to not separate the baby from the placenta.

As a Syntropic Human Ecologist, I have learned that cultivating sovereignty for humans starts during pregnancy, where we honor the Natural Order by letting Syntropy guide the natural way of pregnancy. When we avoid the violations of conventional birth, like immediate cord cutting, we're ensuring the child's Will is respected from day one. That means they can grow up with a clear sense of their yay—the passions and paths that align with their spirit—and their nay—the boundaries and discomforts that signal misalignment.

I've seen this in action in my own children where we chose Lotus Birth for our second child, and even as a toddler, she showed this incredible feeling-based resiliency, as if it was hard for her not to stay connected to her center. I have written extensively on this topic of "Will and of Womb" for the Syntropic Embodiment work, so that I could really see and comprehend first-hand that it is her emotional compass that was calibrated and properly integrated because her birth was a harmonious extension of her pregnancy.

As with all things living, from conception on, pregnancy and birth are one continuous life process, such is the beautiful nature of Syntropy in our Human Ecology, both inner and outer. I deeply know the relevancy of doing the inner healing work around my own birth traumas and how those imprints formed unconscious patterns and foundational belief systems, but particularly being in "free-touch" with my yay or my nay.

My journey over the past 10 years has been full of restoring, remembering, reconnecting, and actively sharing around my realisations about the horrible entropic cult programming we have all been exposed to and programmed by. I can speak more eloquently than most on these topics because I accessed the language of Syntropy, which is life bearing, life giving, and able to always, in all ways, guide anyone to recognize how all of life builds on itself through succession and in every way possible it is performing a function with purpose.

By adopting the writers name Souvereign Sharing, I have taken on my humble part to speak to the roles that everyone, but men in particular, can cultivate to return to the space of sovereignty together. Although it is an inner journey, in the field of Birthing Babies, men certainly have immense room for growth and expansion of effective pressencing (performing a function with purpose) when it comes to ensuring the natural way of pregnancy is protected, supported, and continued into the Birthing Field.

Lotus Birth: A Holistic Concept of Non-Intervention

Of course, the idea of allowing the umbilical cord to remain attached to the placenta until it naturally detaches seems so simple, yet (I'm guessing here) none of you reading this was fortunate enough to have that as your birthing experience and only those women attune enough to the unhealthy, unsacred, unprotected way that western birthing practices have become, you have chosen a different path. I honor you as I honor each and everyone of us on this Journey called Human Life on this Earth.

At birth, what got broken into was the Natural Order, and with that, the Continuum of Life's natural progression got interfered with. This always has an effect. The Continuum Concept, rooted in the belief that nature has a way of guiding us, suggests that, in many aspects of life, especially birth, we should trust the natural processes. Think about it: when a baby is born, they are still connected to their source of nourishment and life. Why rush to sever that bond? How about having this as every babies' experience:

Natural Timing: Just as a flower blooms in its own time, so too, does the bond between mother and child. Allowing the placenta to remain attached gives the baby time to transition into the world of light.
Somatic Bonding: Non-intervention fosters a deeper emotional bonding opportunity that lasts over a prolonged period of time because there really is nothing to do other than to witness the miracle called Life in baby-form and gently affirm that its' instincts to suckle and take in that glorious cholestrum or initially simply be close to momma's heartbeat on her boosem are there to be experienced, in peace.
Lush Bodily Benefits: When the placenta continues to provide nutrients, stemcells, and blood to the baby until it detaches naturally, everything that was by Nature's natural design ordered for the baby is simply being enabled to become fully received. Call it ample oxytocin time.

Imagine being a newborn, still connected to the warmth and safety of your mother. The umbilical cord is still attached to the placenta, with no rush for mum to deliver on the third phase of birth. Lotus birth encourages us to honor that gentle transition and continuum of connection. In its simple essence, it is about respecting the "natural order of things," and both the implications of not doing so and doing so are profoundly impactful and form-giving to little baby humans that then grow into the grown-up versions that we are today.

Some might argue that this practice is "unconventional" or even involving "so much", I dare say that hearing that is personal unconscious birth trauma speaking up, because how much is involved with not severing the Placental Life-Pulse cord but leaving it be?

In the Study of Syntropic Human Ecology it has been fascinating (and satisfying) to find how many ancient and current indigenous cultures around the world embrace and practice lifeways that honor the natural processes in birth and the sacred spiritual companion; the placenta. Although westernization has greatly affected all Peoples' birthing practices, Indigenous (non-western by origin) People understood and still to some degree understand that nature has a rhythm of interconnectedness that is seen as intimately sacred. Humans of the modern-day, socially conditioned world, have often forgotten that we are part of this natural rhythm, let alone that a birthing space is sacred.

“Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished.” – Lao Tzu

We can see the beauty in non-intervention as a reminder that less is more. By allowing nature to take its course, we can create a more peaceful and harmonious beginning for our little ones, and although this awareness is only natural, in practice, it takes a lot more than having a lofty, love-filled fantasy about having a Lotus Birth at home.

Impacts on Psycho-Emotional and Physical Continuum

The placenta often gets dismissed as just a temporary organ, but its role is so much deeper—it’s a life-giving powerhouse crafted for the baby, delivering tailored hormones, nutrients, and antibodies. Immediate cord clamping cuts the baby off from vital blood packed with stem cells, crucial for development. Picture being disconnected from a lifeline just as you step into a new world—that’s the impact of clamping before the cord has pulsed out on its own. And don’t get me started on cord blood banking; it’s pitched as a safeguard, but it’s invasive and ignores the baby’s immediate needs, causing complications either noticeable or developmental. In either case, there is no reason, no excuse to severe the connection prematurely because everything in the placenta is made for the baby. It’s a complex structure, intricately designed to serve an unimaginable amount of life-giving functions, all solely directed with one purpose: supporting the baby.

Understanding this flips the script on how we can, could, should approach birth conceptually and this then allows us to see through Syntropy's Lens again what our own Journey into this world "should' have been like, because with all new babies coming into this world, each and everyone is in innate anticipation of love, nourishment, connection, and grace. In my private Syntropic Embodiment work, I have learned that what wasn't received or allowed to be received then, is still, in the cells, being anticipated to "arrive", like a longing for a homecoming of what was meant to come in.

As a fundamental Syntropic Truth: everything in the placenta is designed for the baby, and when we think about the placenta, we must remember its true function with purpose. In some non-Western traditions, the placenta is revered as the baby’s spiritual twin, honored through rituals like burial to return it to the earth, symbolizing life’s cycle. This respect aligns with honoring the Will of the Soul in Lotus Birth, letting the baby decide when to separate. When we rush this, ignoring that Will, it can spark disconnection and emotional wounds that linger for a lifetime.

Premature Separation from the Souls Spiritual Twin, a cult practice

The Role of Our Sensefelt Will

In the context of birth, the Will of the Soul is crucial. When we practice Lotus birth, we allow the baby to decide when to separate from the placenta. This respects the baby’s natural rhythm and honors its Will. But what happens when this Will is transgressed? When we rush the separation, we are breaking the continuum or better put, not upholding, the natural order, and this disconnection can be described as a Soul disconnection or not full integration. I felt for years this intense yearning to "find" "who" I really am, I was of course obsessed with looking outside of my cells and self. It wasn't until I delved deeply into the Syntropic Human Blueprint that I was unconsciously looking for Will, who at my birth never had a chance to enter my navelport.

When the Will as an imbuement coming through the placenta from the Soul is blocked, it can lead to feelings of disconnection. The baby may feel a sense of loss, as if a part of it has been taken away too soon. This can create psycho-emotional and even spiritual wounds that last a lifetime and are often hidden from self-awareness because the transgression and premature separation from Love (the placenta and soul signature, Will) happened in the pre-lingual phase of psychological development and yet the cells experienced the loss and the imprint of that withholding plays out in many forms that easily observable when Syntropy is re-engaged. It’s equally essential in this line of thinking, to recognize that every ensouled human being has their own timing and path. This is relevant because we can only do our own inner healing work and in doing so we create the much needed love and acceptance to be supportive companions on the journey of those who may have given life to, aka your/my children.

The Interplay of Healing and Nature

When we consider birth, we often still think of it in our mind as a medical event. However, it’s of course much, much more than that. So how about changedreaming that narrative and story in our mindgardens? Birth is a sacred natural process that thrives in a supportive environment. Natural ambient sounds of nature, the scent of flowers, and even the warmth of sunlight can enhance the birthing sexperience.

Reflecting on my own experiences with birth, I realize how each birth I witnessed was unique, yet they all shared a common thread: the relevancy of cell-connection. Birth is about honoring new life, inner-healing, and always a beautiful reminder that we are all part of a larger tapestry, woven together by the threads of love and connection, no matter the outcomes of the birthing plan.

Inner Healing Through Syntropic Embodiment

If you’re feeling called to dive deeper into healing around birth or life’s imprints, I want to invite you to explore inner work through Syntropic Embodiment with me. It’s a journey of returning to that natural harmony within, processing unresolved emotional imprints known as "traumas", working with Syntropy is a way to realign with life’s self-organizing love, helping us reclaim our own sense-felt clarity around our yay and our nay, reestablishing our self agency so that we become more fun-loving, kind, and enabled humans that feel more and more free to be who we came here to be.

Whether you’re a parent, a soon-to-be one, or simply seeking to heal, this work can guide you back to your innate wisdom, just as we envision it for the future younglings through Lotus Birth.

Small Bonuses: Reviewing "Gentle Birth, Gentle Mothering" Through a Syntropic Lens

In exploring my findings, I’ve been influenced by Gentle Birth, Gentle Mothering by Sarah J. Buckley. Her work substantiates many claims around Lotus Birth and natural processes, emphasizing how undisturbed birth supports both physiological and emotional well-being. She discusses how immediate cord clamping disrupts the baby’s receipt of vital blood volume—up to 30% of their intended supply—echoing my concerns about dimming a child’s light (Buckley, 2009, p. 142). Her research highlights delayed clamping benefits, aligning with Lotus Birth’s goal of preserving the feeling-based instrument so younglings know their yay and nay.

Buckley also explores the hormonal interplay in undisturbed birth, like oxytocin’s role in bonding, which Syntropy mirrors in fostering connection and supportive environments (Buckley, 2009, p. 78). Her insights on the placenta as a life-sustaining organ, not waste, reinforce indigenous views and my own sharings on its sacred role.

Through a Syntropic lens, this book is a call to reclaim birth’s natural rhythm, ensuring children’s emotional compasses remain intact to navigate life with clear yay and nay instincts. It’s a powerful resource for families seeking to align with SHE—Syntropic Human Ecology—validating the holistic benefits of non-intervention for lifelong harmony.
