The Yoga Birth Method

Plan a childbirth that’s calm, natural, and self-empowered with
The Yoga Birth Method.
Applying the wisdom of yoga throughout the stages of pregnancy and
labor, author Dorothy Guerra presents an eight-step pathway for
connecting with your mind, body, and spirit from start to finish.
This easy-to-use guide will help you prepare for a
positive and joyful childbirth. Learn how to manage pain, eliminate
anxiety, and encourage labor progression with breathing and meditation
techniques, affirmations, and yoga poses. Couples choose an intention
that becomes a focal point for embracing a calm state of mind
throughout the physical and emotional challenges of labor. You’ll also
find guidance in drafting a birth plan, labor-support techniques for
birth partners, helpful illustrations, information on medical
intervention, and a “go to” chapter with detailed advice on all stages
of labor to use when the big day arrives.
