Magical Beginnings, Enchanted Lives
This program offers an intuitive natural access to the child bearing year. Since our society is fear based in its approach to childbirth the program offers a new method of discovering what childbirth as a whole family experience means. The Magical Beginnings, Enchanted Lives program offers the mother, father, and child a practical tool based on the consciousness model recognizing that we are an integration of body, mind, and spirit. Having the whole family practice this model within the program helps our approach to childbirth dramatically change.
This program fosters a "self referral" convergence that stimulates the mother's natural urge to take care of herself and safeguard her baby by creating a more conscious approach to the baby's development and birth. Along with the basics of pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period, the Magical Beginnings, Enchanted Lives program incorporates yoga, meditation, communication, mindfulness, and self-awareness. The program enhances the baby's gentle entry into the world and helps the parents toward a good beginning in conscious child rearing.

 |
Brief explanation of the application of consciousness based model with prenatal care and the techniques that can help in the preparation for labor (breathing techniques, yoga and meditation). |
