THE CHOICES THAT MATTER

October 4, 2016 By Susan Ross

Choice is the greatest power we haveInner Connection

It is easy to fear our power of choice and we rarely forgive ourselves for ending up in situations in which we feel controlled by another person or circumstance. Something deep in our soul tells us that another person should never be in charge of the most vital power we possess.

The pregnancy journey is about inner development and learning to take charge of the power of your own choices. Nobody else, but the pregnant woman, is responsible for the quality of her and her baby’s health, happiness, thoughts and inner wellbeing. There is deep joy and satisfaction in learning to experience the power of our choices throughout life. The choices a woman makes during pregnancy, on behalf of her baby, she will live with those consequences for ever.
The loss of personal power causes great pain, which can last a lifetime, but there is nothing more exquisite than the feeling of empowerment and being in charge of your pregnancy, your labour, your birth, and most importantly, your baby.
These choices must be made with careful consideration and understanding. Confidence and self-esteem is the key to managing healthy choices. A balanced and healthy sense of who you are allows you to make choices with understanding and clarity.

POWER AND PARENTING

The confident choices you make during pregnancy sets you up for your parenting life. Parenting decisions do not start at birth or when baby can crawl, walk, talk or can kick a footy. It starts from conception. Learning to do this from conception will make you a very self-confident and ‘aware’ parent. When baby does emerge into the outside world, he will know, sense and feel your confidence and the power of your decision making and choices. He will grow and develop into a happy, healthy, confident and aware person.

TRUST AND BELIEF

Trust and belief in your own ability to make the right choices for your pregnancy and your unborn baby, have been essentially stripped away, by misinformation sold through the media. The cycle of FEAR about birthing is almost universally ingrained in society.
If we want to make the world a better place and create emotionally happy, healthy humans we must start at conception. Parenting begins at conception and the joyous connection between Mum, Dad and baby that develops during pregnancy will set baby up for life. It is the most important role any of us ever have in life and if you want to learn how to enjoy this journey, the fun ways of connecting with your baby in utero, then you must have the power of choice and believe deeply in your innate capacity to birth in your own way.  To find out more, book and Inside Birth® prenatal class.
