Pics from Aware Parenting Workshop – 07.11.2010

We had a wonderful time at the Aware Parenting Workshop in Cape Town this Sunday the 7th of November. It was lovely to be with all the eager participants to discuss and share insights about the principles of aware parenting.The Cheesecake was fantastic and our gracious host and hostess made us feel very much at home. I will not forget to mention the wonderful people who babysat or looked after the little ‘uns for the afternoon so their parents could attend. Thank you to all of you for making this such a worthwhile event. Here are some pictures from the workshop…

Women need to prepare for natural birth in every aspect of their lives, including the spiritual, emotional, mental and physical areas of their being. A woman deserves the right to choose her companions as well as where and how she will give birth to her child.

Pregnancy and birth are normal life events for most women. To this end, interventions should be kept to a minimum wherever possible. A baby who is born gently and welcomed by warm, caring parents receives the best possible start in life.

Women who are well prepared in their minds, bodies and spirits can experience birth as a profoundly moving and empowering event.
