Pregnancy and birth are at the same time very down-to-earth and highly spiritual experiences. In our culture there is an abundance of useful advice and good care for its physical side. In comparison, the soul receives little attention. This book wants to meet the need of expectant parents to experience and shape the arrival of their child not only in a physical sense, but also emotionally and spiritually. The main thought of the book is that the unborn child has a conscious soul with which the parents can connect from the moment of conception.
The following subjects are covered: creating an area of silence, dancing with the baby in your belly, making pregnancy mandala's, handling fear and insecurity in a constructive way, as well as the specific role of the father-to-be. Birth is approached as an intense, existential experience, comparable to an initiation. Ideas are presented for the reception of the child, celebrating the birth and the continuation of intuitive contact with the baby.
From her rich practical experience the author offers playful ideas, visualizations and creative exercises for the body, which will certainly appeal to parents-to-be. Readers who offer pregnancy counsel themselves, or who deal with parents of young children, are presented with inspiring material which they can integrate into their own working methods. 'Pregnant with heart and soul' is a kind book, written from the heart. As a workbook for expectant parents it is the only one of its kind.
