What is the Blessing Way Ceremony?
The Blessing Way ceremony is a healing ceremony that focuses on the physical, emotional, and spiritual well being of the expectant mother. Often, the ceremony takes place during the latter part of the pregnancy, and is understood to help provide the mother with all the resources needed to ensure that the birth of the child and recovery from the pregnancy progresses in a healthy manner. The practice is thought to have originated with the Navajo tribe of Native Americans, although many cultures observe some form of a Blessing Way ceremony.
