Healthy Minds Consulting & the Berlin Wellness Group invite you to join us for a private screening of The Microbirth Plan, a brand-new feature documentary that explores how the way we are born can shape our lifelong health.

Through breathtaking science and real human stories, the film shows how small choices and simple actions at birth can have an extraordinary impact, not just for individual families, but potentially, for the future of humanity.

Limited seating is available, please register to reserve your seat. Attending a live screening is the only way to see the film until the wider public release in 2026.

Immediately after the screening, we will be hosting a panel discussion with Los Angeles area birth workers sharing their insights about the film, as well as a Question & Answer opportunity for the audience.
