Showing results for "the-new-mother" in Spirituality

Yoga instructor Alison Rogers and coauthor Erin O. White forge a new path through contemporary motherhood with their collection of gentle suggestions for beginning and deepening a home yoga practice for new mothers. From the warm-up of first days with a newborn to the wobbly-but-standing postures of confident new motherhood, Breathing Space for New Mothers encourages women to notice and nurture their feelings and foster self-compassion to approach motherhood with curiosity instead of fear, improvisation instead of rigidity, and humor instead of worry.

When professional researcher and writer Bethany Saltman gave birth to her daughter, Azalea, she loved her deeply but felt as if something was missing. Looking back at her lonely childhood, dangerous teenage years, and love-addicted early adulthood, Saltman thought maybe she was broken. Then she discovered the science of attachment, the field of psychology that explores the question of why - from an evolutionary point of view - love exists between parents and children.

Hundreds of millions of people pray to her for assistance, and it has been shown that she does answer.

The divine feminine is to many people little more than a feminist flight of fantasy. Nothing could be further than the truth. In the duality in which we exist of right or wrong, good versus evil, black or white, we think wrongly in patterns of either or. So people hear the words divine feminine, sacred goddess, or great mother, and they freak. Duality demands you must choose one or the other, father or mother god, like children in front of a judge at a custody hearing.
