This book compassionately prepare women for especially the inner changes that comes with the transition to motherhood. The author uses stories of rituals and myths from different cultures to illustrate these changes, to encourage and to bring confidence. Even though it obviously has a holistic approach, it does not show a preference for a specific type of birth. So regardless of the choices you make, this book honors all women as birth warriors.

“Until they become conscious they will never rebel, and until after they have rebelled they cannot become conscious”. My favourite quote of 1984. The paradox involved with true revolution.

Thoughts on human behavior as seen from a biologist studying a complex species in a (self made) unnatural caged habitat. Bold and thought provoking! 👏🏼 #desmondmorris #thehumanzoo #biology #anthropology #psychology #philosophy #sociology #books #classic #thinkdeep #alwayslearning #studentoflife

I‘ve been following JBP for a while now. His online lectures are deep and thought provoking and this book is nothing less. It‘s a thoughtful blend of psychology, philosophy, sociology and mythology (religion). He talks about life, how inseparable it is from suffering and how to push through and still create a sense of meaning. Loved it and will be re-reading it again soon! #jbp #12rulesforlife
