From internationally renowned yoga teacher Gurmukh comes a book on
pregnancy unlike any other. "Bountiful, Beautiful, Blissful" is a
treasury of wisdom, information, and inspiration for pregnancy and
motherhood based on the spiritual and physical practices of
Kundalini yoga, which Gurmukh has taught for the last thirty years.
With illustrated, step-by-step instructions, she teaches
time-tested techniques, meditations, and exercises that will help
you physically, mentally, and spiritually. In the timeless way that
women have passed down wisdom surrounding birth and child rearing
to one another for centuries, Gurmukh weaves folk stories and
contemporary testimonials into a program designed to help you get
profound results in the shortest possible time.
The sections in this book cover each trimester of pregnancy as well
as delivery and life with the baby. In her wise, gentle, and
comforting voice, Gurmukh suggests meditations, exercises, and yoga
positions to respond to the various needs of expectant and new
mothers as you undergo dramatic body changes. Gurmukh also helps
you explore and, when necessary, heal your own history and
unconscious attitudes about pregnancy, birth, and parenting.
In "Bountiful, Beautiful, Blissful," Gurmukh gives you all the
tools you need to have a healthy and happy pregnancy while
increasing your connection to your partner and building compassion
and prosperity. The ancient practices of yoga can lead you back to
your own power as a woman, capable of more than you ever dreamed.
All you need is a belief in the possibility of change and a
commitment of as little as three minutes a day. Gurmukh has helped
thousands of women and their families findfulfillment through the
healing movements and meditations of Kundalini yoga---and she can
help you, too!
