Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A guide to consciously exploring and honoring the spiritual and emotional journey of becoming a parent • Provides tools and meditations to engage the sacred wisdom-keeper within and create personal shamanic medicine to support you and your family • Discusses the shamanic perspective on miscarriage, fertility issues, postpartum stress, blended families, and adoption as a form of birthing through the heart • Provides shamanic teachings and techniques for conception, each trimester of pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period The journey into parenthood transforms us, whether our children are biological, adopted, in spirit, or not yet conceived. As we give birth through heart or body, we not only shape-shift into mothers and fathers, but also gain access to the deep inner well of spiritual wisdom that opens with initiation into parenthood. In this guide to consciously exploring the shamanic journey of pregnancy and parenthood, Anna Cariad-Barrett offers techniques and ceremonies to honor the transformation of becoming a parent and engage the sacred wisdom-keeper within. She provides tools and meditations to create personal shamanic medicine to support you and your family on this journey as well as connect with the wisdom of nature, expand your intuition, and explore altered states of consciousness. Restoring honor to the shadow side of parenthood, the author discusses the shamanic perspective on miscarriage, fertility, sexuality, postpartum stress and depression, blended families, and adoption as a form of birthing through the heart. She explains how to heal any deep psychic wounds from your birth family and transform negative beliefs you may hold about parenthood. She provides chapters on each trimester of pregnancy, offering specific teachings and techniques appropriate to each stage as well as conception, birth, and the postpartum period. Whether you are preparing to welcome your first child or seeking spiritual support for the multidimensional experience of being a parent, the author shows how to reclaim and reconnect all the experiences of parenthood and how, through this rite of passage, we give birth to our most authentic selves.
Book Synopsis Birth Wild and Sacred by : Janet Meek
Download or read book Birth Wild and Sacred written by Janet Meek and published by Bookbaby. This book was released on 2020-01-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book tells the story of how Janet Meek, a US Diplomat, entered a deep, and ultimately very spiritual, journey when she gave birth to her own sons (two of them at home) and then went on to become a Certified Professional Midwife and helped several hundred women give birth in their own homes and in birth centers in Texas in the 1990s. Along the way she discovered some secrets of the Ancient Feminine Wisdom, the most key one of which is the need for women to go into non-ordinary states of consciousness in order to give birth. This book also points out how medicalized birth often inadvertently interferes with the birth process and how caregivers and families can create an environment that protects the mother's need for undisturbed, darkened, safe and secure space when she is giving birth. It is also a guide to how women can embrace unmedicated natural birth as a rite of passage into full empowerment, healing injured instinct, restoring intuition, exploring sexuality, and returning the sacred to birth.
Download or read book Natural Birth written by Kristina Turner and published by Floris Books. This book was released on 2014-05-09 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In our society childbirth is often viewed as something to be feared and even to be avoided, through elective caesarian or extreme pain suppression. In this uplifting book Kristina Turner applies esoteric knowledge to show practical ways of transforming a difficult experience into a positive and deeply spiritual one. Kristina looks closely at the physical processes that take place in the body during pregnancy and childbirth, as well at explaining the facts behind hospital procedures and options for home birth -- providing readers with the necessary knowledge to make their own choices. She feels that birthing should be viewed as a unified process, from the nine months of pregnancy through labour to the many months of breastfeeding; all three stages contribute to developing the bond between mother and child and the child's emotional function. Kristina writes beautifully about the sacred mystery inherent in conception and pregnancy, and guides the new mother towards being a conscious participant in the spiritual process of bringing life into this world. This book is both very practical and hugely inspiring.

In eight inspiring case studies of women who have experienced calm births, the author complements the thoughts of renowned experts including Carlos Castaneda and Carolyn Myss.

Download or read book Sacred Birthing, written by Sunni Karll and published by . This book was released on 2020-07-20 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sacred Birthing, Birthing A New Humanity book is my journey as a midwife, and how I was shown that there was more to birthing babies than just that tiny beautiful baby. It is really all about consciousness, not only for the baby, but also for the parents. In the first edition, published in 2003, I just had to write down all the stories, realizations and understanding that was inside me. Then I had to grow up and come of age.As I grew, "What about the baby?" was always my question as I heard birth becoming more and more about medical procedures, technology, drugs and pain. But I kept thinking, what must it feel like to the baby? We need to think about the pristine, delicate, sensitive baby who is experiencing her out-of-the-belly-life for the first time. And so, Soul-Needs, that which upholds a baby's radiance, were honored and highlighted to enunciate this. Babies' Soul-Needs turned everything around and placed the priorities correctly. This makes it clear, for its the baby's birth. Not the moms. We had our own birth. This is our baby's birth, and we are here to do all we can for their birth to be its best. Sacred Birthing Insights are the principles for parent's actions to support their baby's highest birth. These bring parents into coherence with their baby's needs.If we wish to go into a new direction, new choices must be made in order to turn the corner away from the old loop and into new possibilities. This can only be created when we jump out of the box of, birth as it is. Are we able to let go of all its outdated stories? If it is true that there is "a new kind of birth for the Master Souls coming," then we wish to do all we can to implement the softest birth for our baby. By refining our understanding of what each soul needs from us to anchor rightly into life, we can offer what they need by the way we give birth. Our goal is to honor and protect a baby's energetic excellence, so that each is "well-born," and a pristine newborn is received. This is a stepping stone into that new paradigm of birth. Instead of being birthed into pain, what if a baby were born into rushes of bliss? What if joy and gratitude were the feelings mom authentically expresses? What if mom could 'sing out her baby' as a gift to the Earth? There are so many options of love that can cradle your baby on her journey. What it takes is for us to shift the way we think and feel. Our baby's highest birth will take our willingness, and the absolute strength of intention. Are we ready to trust that there is a delicious way to give birth that better supports this baby's life? Are we willing to be in the place of "not knowing how it will happen," but trusting it will? Our Wise-Self and Guardians have been waiting for our request to determine our own higher paradigm of birth. Then as we stand back expectantly, nature will lead the way. And when one of us, and then another, and another creates this higher paradigm of birth, then the hundredth monkey jumps in, and it's real for everyone. It's already happening.

I know this for sure and in The Birthing Goddess, I share my own pregnancy journey and epiphanies as I prepared myself and achieved that glorious goal of pain-free birthing. The Birthing Goddess is a carefully structured holistic program that engages women in an easy step- by- step training process and enables them to experience this seemingly elusive goal. This book targets and eradicates the fundamental causes of pain in childbirth: fear and inadequate preparation. The training involves dispelling fearful myths, strengthening and controlling birthing muscles, conscious breathing, emotional well-being, mental discipline, self-hypnosis, meditation, spiritual awareness, and much more. Fearfulness is banished. Medical intervention is minimized. As a Birthing Goddess, a woman becomes the superstar of her performance. Her body, mind and spirit become well prepared for a happy, healthy pregnancy and a joyful birthing experience. In this fast-paced world, pregnant women will need a structured natural childbirth training program that they can use in the privacy of their homes. Midwives, Doulas, Birthing Centers, and all Health care practitioners will find the information and training in The Birthing Goddess invaluable for themselves and their clients. The idea of enjoying a natural pain-free birthing experience may seem like a fantasy but after reading this book women will realize that they are in fact Birthing Goddesses, ready to reclaim their legacy and enjoy manifesting what they are divinely created to do. About the Author Laila Valere has had the benefit of a multi-faceted career as a Diplomat, Counseling Psychologist, Educator, Training Consultant and Conference Leader. As a mother, she herself has had first-hand experience of the remarkable difference between birthing three children naturally with much pain and anguish and birthing her fourth child at age 46 years naturally yet with comfort and joy. This gave her a compelling dual perspective on natural birthing. She realized that it was the quality of childbirth preparation and self-training that changed painful natural birthing into pain-free natural birthing. This is the transformative process that she wishes to share with others in The Birthing Goddess. Laila is a practitioner of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and Hypnotherapy. She has also produced a comprehensive training manual Focus on Self and two experiential CD recordings with accompanying booklets: (1) Success in Examinations to assist students to overcome examination anxiety and (2) From a point of Love- a healing prayer and meditation. In The Birthing Goddess, she uses her varied skillsets and experiences to design this innovative and effective training system to help women fully enjoy their pregnancy and be present for their divinely glorious, pain-free birthing experience. Laila lives in Florida with her husband, children and grandchildren and is actively involved in community service and in helping others to develop their potential.
Book Synopsis Pearls of Sacred Birthing by : Sunni Karll
Download or read book Pearls of Sacred Birthing written by Sunni Karll and published by . This book was released on 2020-05-21 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Pearls" is an introduction to all of Sacred Birthing. These are the gems that take you on your journey to your baby's 'Softbirth.' What do we need most in pregnancy? We need to dream who it is hiding in there, and who this little one is asking to become. We need to grow our love for this teeny being, and learn more of who we are as we take care of him. We need to know that no matter what, our body knows exactly what to do to grow and birth and nurture this beloved one. We need to remember that we already know everything, if we just stop, and go inside. As we let go of the medical, the warnings, the doubts, and the self-doubts, we step into trusting our self. This is the book that I wish I had received when I was first pregnant! It's the perfect Baby Shower Gift or BlessingWay Gift, but even better, the perfect Conception Gift for your best friend. Let it inspire you to ask yourself deep questions about your baby's birth. From "Pearls": "The babies I helped with taught me that babies are far more than just the tiny body they present visually. They taught me about the consciousness that enlivens the body. If our desire is to give birth to a radiant being, it means that the whole baby asks to be addressed. It is not enough to simply receive the baby's physical body at birth, and not respect the feeling nature and the spiritual being. A baby's physical body is best received into gentle soft hands, imposing nothing to make a baby cry. The emotional feeling nature of a baby is supported when a baby is received with love, trust and respect. The spiritual body of the baby has needs too, that ask to be supported. When the act of giving birth takes spiritual needs into consideration, then baby's life is lived at a higher octave. Thus, a baby chooses a gentle birth to attain his full entitlement of light." And, "What is our true purpose when we consciously ask to conceive? Why do we do our very best for our baby during pregnancy? Why are we concerned about protecting our baby from any trauma at birth? Our intention is that our baby is not wounded, for it is not possible for a baby to be in the mode of openness and growth, when in the mode of defensiveness and protection. Thus, a baby always chooses a gentle birth to retain his full entitlement of light."

Helen discusses simple and powerful ways to enhance love and encourage a successful extension of the family. It is an incredible, holistic journey that begins years before and following a child."- Dr. Rebecca Harwin, Chiropractor and Bestselling Author of Conquer Your PCOS Naturally www.DrRebeccaHarwin.com "The synergy of understanding how our spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical being relates to the bigger picture has never been more needed than this time in humanity's evolution. Increasing one's level of selfawareness and self-responsibility is the only assurance for bringing a healthier, happier child onto the planet." - Simone Surgeoner, Founder of Birth In Nature, Doula, Mother of Four www.birthinnature.com
Book Synopsis Spiritual Midwifery by : Ina May Gaskin
Download or read book Spiritual Midwifery written by Ina May Gaskin and published by Book Publishing Company. This book was released on 2010-11-09 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spiritual Midwifery is considered by many to be the bible of the home birth movement. This classic book on natural childbirth introduced a whole generation of women to the possibility of home birth and breast feeding. At a time when higher levels of technology were the wave of the future, the home birth movement testified to the naturalness and normalcy of the birthing process-even the sacredness of it. Ina May Gaskin, the author, is a powerful advocate for a woman's right to give birth without excessive and unnecessary medical intervention. Now in its fourth edition, her voice is needed as much now as then. In today's climate of unprecedented numbers of cesarean sections and induced labor, knowledge of this birthing process enables women to make informed choices regarding their maternity care and delivery options. The birthing stories and section on care of the newborn are valuable to anyone about to become a parent. One of the highlights of this book is the collection of amazing birth tales that replaces misconceptions about childbirth with an awareness of the rights of mothers and babies to experience a conscious and loving process. Birthing tales from ladies who were babies in earlier editions of Spiritual Midwifery and stories of Amish women from a nearby community who were delivered by The Farm Midwives bring a fresh perspective. Also new to this edition is information on postpartum depression and maternal death along with updated information on the safety of natural childbirth, and the safety of popular practices such as labor induction and cesarean operations. Photos of ecstatic faces of mothers and babies permeate the pages. The section on instructions to midwives provides excellent clinical information for all health professionals who attend births. The stories and information in this volume will remain relevant to women for generations to come.
