As you have probably noticed, I have not made any posts since the turn of the month.

That is because I was bringing to completion my new e-book ‘Get Pregnant and Stay Pregnant with the Law of Attraction’ and everything else took a back seat.

I am delighted to report that it is finished and will be available for sale in about a month.

The book shares a step-by-step process to bring you into alignment with success in pregnancy and aims to serve women who have experienced fertility challenges as well as women who want to consciously conceive and bring a new soul into the world with ease and confidence.

I was very fortunate recently to attend a conference with Deepak Chopra in Barcelona. He reminded me so much of our fertility, pregnancy and birth stories as well as our relationship with parenting, breastfeeding and all else that comes with being a woman in a modern world.

We experience ourselves as solid physical beings. That is how we perceive the world. When we look at a chair our brains see a solid entity…something permanent.

However this is, in fact, false and occurs only because our brains and nervous systems are not capable of registering what is actually taking place.

In reality, everything is energy and information flashing in and out of existence at speeds greater than light. Although we experience life as a continuity (the chair I am sitting is always in this spot), it is in fact a discontinuity flashing on and off.

What happens for us is that the memory of the chair (your fertility, pregnancy, baby and partner etc.) lingers while in the ‘off’ phase so we perceive it as always being there in the same way.

Chopra compared this to a movie which appears to be a continuous stream of visual and audio information but is in fact a series of still frames..24 per second… which is faster than the brain’s ability to process. So we see a continuous film instead of the on/off that is really happening.

Our expectations, memories and desires acutally shape what is going to happen next….what is going to come into existence.

So with regard to fertility, for example, your expectation will have an impact on what will happen for you. The same applies to breastfeeding, birth and parenting.

Looking back on your history or experience only perpetuates the illusion of continuity and brings more of what you have had in the past.

You are the creator of your experience and this moment is your moment of power.

So look forward to what you want in your fertility.  Visualise a pain-free, empowering birth.  See yourself and your baby absolutely thriving in breastfeeding. Imagine amazing support surrounding you as you relax into financial freedom.

And let the next flash ‘on’ come from the new life story you are telling yourself…the one in which you are a successful, amazing, empowered, supported, nourished mother who is fully in tune with your wonderful body, deep wisdom and infinite intelligence.

I had the great pleasure of interviewing Debra Pascal-Bonaro, internationally renowned childbirth expert. Debra has recently completed her first film which is a documentary called Orgasmic Birth following the stories of 11 women.

Debra explained that because it is now seen as a medical event, we have forgotten that birth is actually part of a woman’s sexual life.

If you were to consider birth in this manner what would you be asking for?

According to Debra, the best kept secret of birth is that 20% of women who are not medicated report having orgasm during birth.

So what are you asking for and expecting? If you were to open up to the idea that birth is a sensual experience what would be different about your current birth plan?

Are you hoping to survive birth or would you love your birth to be am empowering, sensual experience connecting you to your deep wisdom and a pleasure for you, your partner and your baby?

You can take the first step towards an orgasmic birth…..by daring to dream. Write out what you would love and play with the idea that a sensual birth really is a possibility for you and your baby.

Christiane Northrup, M.D. who wrote Women’s Bodies, Women’s Wisdom penned the letter below and I was inspired to share it with you. It will be of particular interest to US citizens….

 Greetings,

Recently, I told you about the FDA’s attempt to prevent compounding pharmacies from using estriol (a bioidentical form of estrogen), an action that was instigated by Wyeth Labs. I urge you to join the ground swell of women and men, doctors and lay persons, who are notifying their congressional representative that this is unacceptable. When it comes to hormone replacement, women deserve access to all the options, especially bioidentical hormones (BHRT) which are safe, highly effective, and natural to a women’s body.I encourage you to let your congressional representative know that you want to preserve your right to choose BHRT by following the link below in the message from Citizens for Health. Together we can make a difference.

Sincerely,Christiane Northrup, M.D.

We can all visualise women having the very best of natural, medical and complementary supports and information in all stages of fertility.

As a result of pelvic pain when walking (which began shortly after I became pregnant), I decided to seek the advice of a physiotherapist.

One of her recommendations was to take smaller steps and walk using my whole body.

So now I am walking again without pain. My pace is slower at the moment as I retrain my brain, develop new neural pathways around walking and allow more muscles to support me.

During this process, it came to me that I need to take baby steps in all areas of my life now - not just when walking.

So I took this message from my body and started taking baby steps in other areas too. I noticed that as I do this, it seems that I am summoning forth support from other avenues (other muscles) that I didn’t even consider before.

 And as I trust more that baby steps are guidance from my deep wisdom, I relax and grow in confidence thereby attracting more experiences that illicit these feelings.

Perhaps you have pain or discomfort in your precious body.

 What might it be telling you? And how can you take on board this amazing guidance today so that you can attract more of what you want in fertility, pregnancy, birth and beyond with your baby?

How do I attract the highest soul for the family? What a wonderful question!!!

(1) The very first step is to intend to attract the highest soul for your family.

(2) Become as clear as you can about what you mean by ‘attracting the highest soul for your family’ because that statement will probably mean different things to different people.

Sometimes it can be useful to acknowledge first what you don’t want as this brings you clarity about what you do want.

So for example, if you don’t want tension, arguments etc. They you also know that you do want harmony, peace and fun.

Many of us are operating from the belief that ’pain is necessary for growth’ or that ‘you can’t have it all’.

But we can create it the way we want it. And we can grow into more and more joy without experiencing the contrasts provided by extreme conditions of pain and suffering.

So be clear about what you would love for your baby, for yourself, for your family (focusing in particular on the feelings).

(3) Involve the rest of the family if that feels good.

 You can all join in together asking for the perfect baby who will thrive with you and with whom you will all thrive. You could draw a picture of the family with the new baby and everybody feeling really good, loved, cared for and happy.

(4) Know that it is alright to ask for what you really desire. You are a conscious creator and are here to experience the life that you love.

(5) Trust that it is already given.

So when you conceive and baby comes along just know that this soul is the perfect one for your family.

When we adopt that perspective we can easily see the opportunity for growth in everything that unfolds in your baby’s life.

This last tip also helps you stay grounded in your sacred feminine power because you realise that every situation regardless of how it appears, is calling forth in you your infinite wisdom, commpassion and power to turn challenge into gold.

What images come to mind when you hear the phrase ‘she fell pregnant’?

 The term ‘falling pregnant’ evokes in me an image of a careless woman tripping to the floor. It implies some mishap for sure and sounds as though pregnancy is something that has happened, by chance almost, to this woman.  

‘Falling pregnant’ conceals the truth. It hides the power of the woman who has chosen consciously to bring forth new life into the world through her body. It does not so much as hint at her ability to engage in deliberate creation.

 And it sounds as though her partner has done something to her…overlooking her joyful, conscious participation in co-creation with the father of her baby.

Words matter. They shape our experience. As one book reminds us ‘In the beginning was the word’. 

So I in invite you to acknowledge your power and consider ‘becoming pregnant’, ‘embracing pregnancy’ or ‘allowing pregnancy’ as you consciously participate in the magical conception of your new baby.

Our relationship with our sacred feminine has a significant impact on our experience of fertility, pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding and of course our relationships.

Yesterday on blog talk radio, Maire Clements, Tracy Gary and myself discussed how we can really honour the Goddess within.

Part of the discussion also tapped into how we can support our babies and children to embrace their own sacred selves (male and female) so they can feel whole and comfortable in their wonderful bodies.

It is up to you to claim the power and gift of Mother’s day for yourself.

If you have experienced miscarriage or are simply trying to have baby Mother’s Day still belongs to you.

Instead of waiting for somebody else to start the ball rolling, celebrate the mother in you by lavishing yourself today with the same love, tenderness and joy as you would if you were your own very welcome, precious, perfect new baby.

In all areas of life we know that our expectations shape our experience.

If we expect pain and suffering then invariably that is what we get. Unless we seek out new information, most of us expect whatever our friends, sisters and mothers have gone through.

So when we are preparing for a birth that we would really love, it is very useful to see first hand what is actually possible and what can be the norm.

Debra Pascali-Bonaro, internationally renowned childbirth expert, has created a film called orgasmic birth.

Watch this truly inspiring trailer http://www.orgasmicbirth.com/ to remember what your amazing body is designed for.

Thank you Debra.
