Childbirth is simple.
The hardest part about childbirth is the preparation, which consists of unlearning everything society has conditioned you to believe about birth.
There is nothing to fear about birth. If you can’t believe this, you have unlearning to do.
Our body gives us millions of reminders daily of how it was wisely designed to carry out physiological processes.
We don’t have to learn how to do these physiological processes. It is already programmed in our brains from conception.
The problem is we have been lied to about what birth is. We have been lied to by media and entertainment industries. We have been lied by medical and pharmaceutical companies. We have been lied to by people who are afraid and who don’t know and who are blind to the daily testimonies their bodies live out.
The hardest part for you is to unlearn the lies and to begin to believe. Believe in the Wise Creator who designed so wisely to reflect His perfection. Believe in your body. Believe it when it speaks to you. It speaks to you daily.
It knows just how to go to sleep, to dream, to replenish, to wake up.
It knows how to take what you feed it, pull out nutrients, and excrete the rest.
It knows how to keep your body at the perfect temperature.
You are daily surrounded by an immense amount of stressors, yet it keeps itself in perfect homeostasis.
It knows how to become aroused and how to orgasm.
It knows how to safely increase its temperature to just the right degree that will destroy invasive pathogens, and then to return back.
Your pupils dilate to accept more light and shrink when it’s too bright. You sweat when it’s hot to cool yourself and shiver when cold to warm up.
When you get a foreign object stuck in your body, it moves it out.
When you get sick, it turns on just the right “symptoms” that bring you back to balance.
Every second of the perinatal process, from your body releasing an egg to be fertilized, to nourishing your infant, is fine tuned and perfect. Your body knows how to do it all. You have this knowledge within you right now. You always had this knowledge in you.
There are trillions of physiological processes that we will never know about because they are beyond our ability to see.
Every physiological process is fine tuned and perfect- no command needed.
Yet we question and doubt and fear just another physiological process that is fine tuned and perfect.
Allopathic prenatal care is merely a distraction. A distraction from the more important work of unlearning the lies you’ve been consciously and subconsciously taught. Their fears will keep you in fear. Their distrust will keep you in distrust of your body.
True prenatal care is simple.
Unlearn what you’ve been told about birth so that you can stop fearing it, stop trying to control it, and get out of it’s way. Let it do what it knows how to do best.
Nourish your body so your body is healthy and well and able to carry out its physiological processes well.
Cultivate a life that is healthy- healthy relationships and friendships. Healthy home. Healthy habits. Healthy lifestyle. Resilience to stress. Healthy boundaries. Healthy mind. healthy spirit.
Our physiological processes work best when we feel safe. Cultivate a life where your body feels safe. Safe and nourished.
This is prenatal care. Your body will take care of the rest.
