Praise for Find Your Birth Joy: "Sarah's book celebrates the extraordinarily powerful force of the female birthing body and introduces this empowering concept with honest reflections, open-heartedness, and a host of spirited messages that can help you build resilience and self-compassion for whatever happens in your own childbirth experience. It's a much-needed manifesto for a new generation of young women who have been misled by over-medicalization and popular media messages that somehow modern females are "too posh to push." It's an important book that will help parents tap into the confidence they need during this transformative time." - Prof. Meg Jordan, PhD, RN, CWP Clinical Medical Anthropologist Chair, California Institute of Integral Studies "What I really appreciate is that Find Your Birth Joy is written by a new mama. She is close to her own birth experience and speaks from an honest and heartfelt place. Empowered by the birth of her daughter, Sarah offers a practical and thoughtful handbook for natural childbirth full of tips, tools and practices to guide pregnant women through the preparation for birth. I absolutely recommend this book for women who are looking for a guide to a more connected, conscious and natural birth." - Jane Austin, childbirth educator, prenatal and postnatal teacher and trainer, and founder, Mama Tree Prenatal Yoga School "Wisdom passed from mother-to-mother is arguably one of the best ways a woman can prepare for childbirth, but sometimes you hear more of the bad than the good. Find Your Birth Joy is a positive and empowering guide to preparing for childbirth that will speak equally to your head and to your heart." Bryn Huntpalmer, founder, The Birth Hour podcast "A powerful and unique guide for women. Highlighting that everyone deserves a joyful birth!" - Maria A. Iorillo, LM, CPM

As one date turns into several, their friendship transforms into love, dismaying Horace Marsden who is determined to prevent his nephew, Alan, from making a mistake. But everything changes when a surprising discovery forces Leah to make difficult decisions, and a series of events causes Alan to question his commitment to the legal profession and his ability to function in the so-called real world.

Expectant mothers will find the tools they need to approach birth as a gift, and to invite God into the experience. About the Author Mary Haseltine is a theology graduate and a certified birth doula and childbirth educator.

Download or read book Orgasmic Birth written by Elizabeth Davis and published by Rodale Books. This book was released on 2010-06-08 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on the hit documentary that inspired a vibrant online community, this innovative approach to birthing shows women how to maximize childbirth's emotional and physical rewards. With more than 4 million babies born in the United States each year, too many women experience birth as nothing more than a routine or painful event. In her much-praised film Orgasmic Birth, acclaimed filmmaker Debra Pascali-Bonaro showed that in fact childbirth is a natural process to be enjoyed and cherished. Now she joins forces with renowned author and activist Elizabeth Davis to offer an enlightening program to help women attain the most empowering and satisfying birth experience possible. While an orgasmic birth can, for some, induce feelings of intense, ecstatic pleasure, it is ultimately about taking control of one's own body and making the most informed decisions to have a safe, memorable, and joyful birth day. Whether women choose to give birth at home, in a hospital, or in a birthing center, Orgasmic Birth provides all the necessary tools and guidance to design the birth plan that's best for them. Featuring inspiring stories from mothers and their partners and filled with practical advice and solutions, this one-of-a-kind resource is the next frontier of natural, intimate childbirth.
