The Mama Bamba Way - Inner Pathways Back To The Power And Pleasure Of Birth (Paperback)

A natural birth methodology which takes pregnant women on a journey back to the power and pleasure of birth.

There is richness and magic in birth. Yet because we are afraid of its pain and power we turn our backs on it, choosing instead to sanitise it and strip it of feeling through medical interventions. Yet birth is a peak experience that has the potential to transform us, and birthing with conscious awareness offers our children an initial experience of life where they are shown that they need not be afraid – that life in all its intensity is something to embrace, laugh with, cry about and cherish.

The Mama Bamba Way is the way of developing awareness of yourself, of your baby and of each birthing moment. It will show you how to create a gentle and loving first impression of life for your baby when it moves from the womb into the world. Mamabamba means ‘Mother embrace’ in the African languages of isiXhosa, siSwati and isiZulu.

The book explores how to:

• create a relationship with your baby in the womb
• use dance for surrendering into labour
• use meditation and visualization
• release negative patterns of behaviour
• create meaningful birth ceremonies
• choose the right kind of birth & carer
• decide if your really want a Caesarean
• cope with death and grief

The Mama Bamba method of birth preparation has been drawn from ancient traditions, contemporary studies, from women’s innate wisdom and from the promptings of our unborn children. The Mama Bamba Way also includes inspirational real life stories in each section and beautiful photographs.
