The Conscious Pregnancy Guidebook offers a holistic, heart-based perspective on the ten-moon journey of pregnancy, the early weeks of motherhood, and connected, gentle parenting.From the earliest days of pregnancy, it seems like our culture, society, and even well-meaning friends and relatives tell us what we''re "supposed to" think, do, and become, now that we''re expecting. This can cause us to rely too much on external advice at a time when we''re meant to go within and awaken our mothering instincts (even if we think we don''t have any)! You need loving guidance and support during pregnancy - and this begins with how you treat yourSelf during this sacred time of transformation.A conscious pregnancy is about choosing our own path, and attuning to our heart''s inner guidance. Inside this book, you''ll discover thoughtful, intuitive musings coupled with cutting-edge science and ancient wisdom - about everything from due dates to relationship advice. Use the writing prompts to record your insights and ideas, create cherished memories, and be inspired by the hand-drawn artwork throughout.This book is both a pregnancy journal and a catalyst for reawakening your feminine wisdom, through conscious pregnancy and birth.Pregnancy and birth are sacred rites of passage, no matter where or how they unfold - and the transition from woman to new mother can be a richly intense, intimate journey of personal growth. It''s both exultant, and exhausting. The Conscious Pregnancy Guidebook offers loving guidance and support on your journey of becoming the type of mother you want to be - for yourSelf and your baby!

The first words out of my doctor's mouth were simple yet critical to my success. "Reduce stress," he said. I dismissed his statement, but in the end, it was those simple words I should have seriously considered in the first place. Had I understood all the hidden sources of stress packed away in my subconscious from previous challenges in life, even in childhood, I would have sought help and I wouldn't have had to wait so long to be a mother.Here's what I didn't know that would have made a world of difference in my painful journey: When a young child goes through stress, they create a story in their mind to understand it. That story shapes their perception of things deep in their subconscious and that perception sticks, even into adulthood. This information begs the question: Could there be a "story" or perception in our subconscious affecting our ability to become pregnant? I believe the answer is "yes," as my journey illustrates it well. With help, the "stories" in my mind which were triggering my stress response, were re-written and I finally was able to live my dream. It's time to re-write your stories as well, so you can experience what your heart truly desires.
