As expecting parents, you’ve got more information than ever about proper nutrition, home versus hospital births, fitness, medications, and the list goes on. Yet when it comes to the deeper truths about the incredible process of bringing a child into this world—like spiritual and emotional growth—where can you turn? With Transformed by Birth, Dr. Britta Bushnell has created the transformative, intelligent, and empowering pregnancy and childbirth guide you’ve been waiting for.
Our culture has bombarded us with false ideals that prevent us from fully engaging in the journey of pregnancy and childbirth—including a need for control and certainty, vilification of pain, and reverence for technology and intellectual knowledge. Dr. Bushnell helps you clear away these illusions so you can open to the meaning and comfort of this life-changing experience. Here she offers daily practices, rituals, drawing exercises, and more to help you cultivate resilience, power, and connection during this magical time.
Childbirth is more than a biological event, psychological event, relational event, or medical experience. With Transformed by Birth, you’ll rediscover childbirth as a transformational experience that alters your knowing of who you are.
