A Blessingway is a gathering of women prepared to bless and nurture the mother-to-be. It is believed that Blessingways originated from the Native American tradition of offering blessings at various life passages. You can expect that a Blessingway sets a safe tone for the mother-to-be and her friends through some rituals (these led activities could include: mental preparation through hand washing in rose water;
Your gathering in a circle; may include lighting a candle; offering words, items, or prayers for strength; releasing fears; preparing the mother with a foot bath, henna, or floral crown; and of course feasting together). Ceremonies are designed to carry you into birthing and mothering with an extra reserve of strength.
