Publisher Marketing:
This beautiful book, from the bestselling authors of The First Forty Days and Awakening Fertility, provides clear, positive, nonjudgmental guidance to mothers-to-be on how to care for themselves--and not just their babies--during pregnancy.
Nine Golden Months shares timeless guidance from the authors' extraordinary circle of practitioners, guides, and wisdom-keepers specializing in prenatal care; it draws from Traditional Chinese medicine and Ayurveda and features rituals and female-sourced wisdom, so that it addresses all aspects of a woman's pregnancy experience: emotional, mental, physiological, and spiritual.
There is so much noise surrounding pregnancy and birth. There are countless books teeming with information--what test does what, the "rights" and "wrongs" of eating, and "safe" or "risky" lifestyle choices--but few that hold a woman through the experience, acting as an elder sister, a matriarch, or as a circle of women might hold her--with compassion and wisdom.
In era of high-speed living, endless demands, and more than a little anxiety and fear,
Nine Golden Months provides care and solace. A woman needs to feel connected to others, rooted in the knowledge that many have done this before her, and calmed and fortified by time-honored practices that nourish her body, soothe her mind, and hold up her spirit.
