Calm Birth: Empowering Preparation for Childbirth

by Robert Newman

Calm Birth: Empowering Preparation for Childbirth Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Calm Birth is a safe, noninvasive, and drug-free childbirth method, based on meditation and mind/body medicine, which has been used in hospitals for more than 10 years. Supported by many highly respected childbirth specialists, including Jeannine Parvati Baker, Ina May Gaskin, and Ruth L. Miller, it encourages natural childbirth, but is effective even when medical interventions are necessary, as it helps heal the side effects of medications and invasive procedures. The three narrations on this CD guide mothers-to-be and new mothers through the main relaxation and meditation practices detailed in the author's book "Calm Birth: A New Method for Conscious Childbirth" — the practice of opening, womb breathing, and giving and receiving. An empowering alternative to the " medicalization of birth," the techniques allow women to channel their innate wisdom, ability, and energy, making the birth experience a truly blessed event.
