< Back to Masterclass List Struggling with latch and breastfeeding? A gentle, whole-body approach to feeding challenges The Osteopathic Centre Gregory Durand Breastfeeding struggles are common, and they are rarely about just one thing. If your baby is not latching well, getting tired quickly at the breast, clicking, slipping off, or causing pain, this masterclass is for you. In this session, Kathy from Pregnant and Popped, by Empowa, is joined by Gregory Durand, paediatric osteopath and director at The Osteopathic Centre, to explore latching through a whole body lens. Greg shares how oral function is connected to the jaw, neck, tongue, birth experience, and overall tension in a baby’s body. He explains why feeding challenges can show up not just at the breast, but also with bottles, digestion, sleep, and later milestones like solids and speech. This masterclass covers: 👶🏼 What osteopathy is and how it supports babies gently and safely 👶🏼 Common signs of latching and feeding difficulties 👶🏼 How birth, neck tension, jaw tightness, and tongue function can affect feeding 👶🏼 The difference between tongue tie, tongue weakness, and oral restriction 👶🏼 When osteopathy can help, and when other specialists may be needed 👶🏼 What a paediatric osteopathy appointment looks like for a newborn 👶🏼 How osteopaths, lactation consultants, paediatricians, dentists, and parents work together as a team This is not about blame, fixing, or forcing a feeding journey to look a certain way. It is about understanding what your baby is communicating, reducing tension, and giving families more clarity and confidence. Important disclaimer: - This masterclass is educational and not medical advice. Always consult your specialist providers for personalised care and guidance. If you are pregnant, postpartum, or supporting a baby through feeding challenges, you are not alone.

< Back to Masterclass List "US" after baby: How to protect the bond after everything changes with Cornelia Dahinten Conscious Connections Consultancy Cornelia Dahinten When a baby arrives, everything shifts - your routine, your sleep, and often without realising it, the dynamic between you and your partner. Suddenly, you aren't just a couple; you are co-parents, logistics managers, and night-shift partners. In the middle of the chaos, it is easy for the relationship to slip into the background. In this masterclass, Cornelia Dahinten, couples therapist and founder of Conscious Connections Consultancy, explores how to navigate these profound relationship shifts. She shares practical tools to help you move from survival mode into a season of deeper connection and understanding. In this video, you’ll learn: 🧑🧑🧒🧒 The Root of the Family Tree: Why focusing on the couple's foundation makes the whole family feel steadier. 🧑🧑🧒🧒 Managing the "Survival Brain": How to regulate your nervous system to get out of fight, flight, or freeze modes during conflict. 🧑🧑🧒🧒 The Power of the Pause: How a 30-second moment of self-regulation can stop reactive arguments before they start. 🧑🧑🧒🧒 Micro-Moments of Connection: Why small gestures, like a six-second hug or a cup of tea, matter more than big dates. 🧑🧑🧒🧒 Curiosity Over Assumptions: How to stop mind-reading and start asking the right questions. 🧑🧑🧒🧒 Invisible Labor: Dividing household and parenting roles in a way that creates intimacy rather than resentment. Key Moments & Questions for You: Cornelia invites you to grab a pen and paper to answer these four vital questions to jumpstart your connection today: 1. What is one thing I want my partner to know about how I feel right now? 2. What is one thing I would like to understand about my partner? 3. What is one conversation I have been avoiding? 4. What is one active habit I would like my partner to start to help us feel closer? About Our Guest: Cornelia Dahinten is a clinical hypnotherapist, couples therapist, and parent coach based in Singapore, specialising in relationship and attachment-focused work.
