As a highly experienced community midwife and teacher, Bridget
Sheeran knows that pregnancy should be a time for vital physical
and mental preparation. The body and mind do much of this
automatically but there are many ways to support this process, and
to resist the day-to-day stresses that can hinder it. Through
detailed images for colouring-in, Bridget invites pregnant women to
allow their natural curiosity to rise up and lead them to discover
how they can help themselves through the process of birth. As women
relate to their interpretation of the illustrations, this book can
powerfully: Allow them in their own time to focus on their needs in
pregnancy, birth and becoming a mother; Motivate them to prepare
for birth and the responsibility of caring for a newborn; Enable
personal well-being through relieving stress via the 'right brain'
activity of colouring-in; Motivate women to evaluate their personal
resources and find the support structures they will need to do the
most important job in the world: give birth and nurture their baby.

Keep the page in your book with this gorgeous pack of 10 foiled
bookmarks, printed on both sides, with a silky ribbon and featuring
artwork by Edvard Munch. Munch's most famous painting exemplifies
Norwegian Expressionism. The angst-ridden human condition has never
been so superbly and unassailably conveyed as by the figure
emitting a cry from the heart. Life, love and death are the themes
which Munch endlessly explored in his paintings.
Keep the page in your book with this gorgeous pack of 10 foiled
bookmarks, printed on both sides, with a silky ribbon and featuring
artwork by Gustav Klimt. The Kiss is a prime example of Klimt's
'Golden Phase', in which he began to feature especially sumptuous
ornamentation on a regular basis in his paintings. The couple in
this artwork represent the mystical union of spiritual and erotic
love, and the connection of life and the universe.
Keep the page in your book with this gorgeous pack of 10 foiled
bookmarks, printed on both sides, with a silky ribbon and featuring
artwork by Wilhelm List. Austrian painter Wilhelm List was born in
Vienna in 1864. He studied there as well as in Munich and Paris,
learning from artists such as Christian Griepenkerl (1839-1912)and
William Bouguereau (1825-1903). List co-founded the Vienna
Secession with renowned artist Gustav Klimt (1862-1918), exhibiting
at the very first Viennese Secession in March 1897. The
Secessionists strove to break free of the constraints of the late
nineteenth century academic art establishment. List's artwork was a
mixture of portraits, landscapes and genre paintings, often with
mythological subjects. Magnolia is among List's most well-known
works. Its intricate depiction of a beautiful tree in bloom, with a
background of still waters has a spiritual quality that evokes a
sense of peace.
