11. Meditation for Birth

Communicate your readiness and your willingness to await baby’s timing. You describe how it will be – safe place, sacred music, trusted supporters, beauty surrounding…Encourage baby to come out. Meditations: Listen daily in a peaceful place for the duration of each month of pregnancy. Try to sit undisturbed and relaxed for at least ten minutes. Let the Meditation spark your own inner voice to continue meditating and praying in your own words. (More in Introduction.)
