ART OF GIVING BIRTH
With Chanting, Breathing, and Movement
ISBN: 9781594772764
ISBN 10:
With Chanting, Breathing, and Movement
Giving birth is a veritable 'explosion' of joy. The baby arrives when the life force surges up so strongly in the woman that it breaks all limitations in order to spring forth. But in our modern culture, women often do not feel empowered to give birth by themselves. They want the 'experts' to handle the birth for them, out of fear of the pain or the possible risks to them or the baby.
Dr Frédérick Leboyer, author of the groundbreaking book Birth without Violence, which looks at birth from the baby's point of view, now explores the birth process from the mother's perspective. Through the heartfelt letters of women sharing their experiences, which are accompanied by his advice and commentary, he reveals how women can develop the skills needed to create a successful and joyful birth.
Dr Leboyer stresses that proper breathing is the most important component for women going through childbirth. The breathing should come from the lower belly and the exhalation should be accompanied by a musical tone. Without this musical dimension, breathing is merely a physical exercise. Dr Leboyer found that, by using the music of the tambura, an Indian stringed instrument whose tones represent the embodiment of universal harmony, women are transported to a place of inner peace. THE ART OF GIVING BIRTH includes breathing and singing exercises and gentle movements to be practised throughout the pregnancy and during labour. Also included is a 26-minute free CD of tambura music to accompany the exercises.

BLACKBERRY TEA CLUB
Women in Their Glory Years
ISBN: 9781573249652
ISBN 10:
Women in Their Glory Years
Mid-life crisis is not a crisis-it is a passage into joy. This was the essential truth discovered by the four women of a certain age, founding members of the Blackberry Tea Club, which began as late-night conversations while sipping blackberry tea with a little kick added. Those conversations about children, men, jobs, weight, clothes, food, travel, gossip, politics, medicine, healing, spirituality, adventure, and books grew slowly, beautifully into the Blackberry Tea Club and the discovery of the Glory Years.
The Blackberry Tea Club weaves together essays, stories, and poetry, celebrating mid-life in all its silliness, sorrow, and glory. Bottom line: middle age is much more than menopause. These are the Glory Years for women, years that bring about the expansion and reorganizing of the mind, heart, and spirit, and the birthing of a larger self of immense compassion, intellect, will, spirit, love, and capability.
Divided into five parts, each one explores different themes:
* Seeing mid-life crisis as an adamant search for joy
* Discovering opportunities for women to appreciate their bodies
* Exploring multiple facets of love
* Letting go of the bad stuff to relish "what light there is"
The Blackberry Tea Club offers stories of adventure, food, spirit, and the community of women in their Glory Years.

BODY SNATCHERS
How the Media Shapes Women
ISBN: 9781876451073
ISBN 10: 1876451076
How the Media Shapes Women
In April 1997 Cyndi Tebbel then editor of New Woman Magazine featured a size-16 model on the cover of a special issue on body image. The issue was a big hit with New Woman's readers but when a cosmetics company withdrew its advertising from the magazine Cyndi was encouraged to discontinue promoting 'unhealthy' imagery. When Cyndi left New Woman in late 1997 her story was front-page news. She began a speaking tour and discovered there was enormous support for her views. The result was an invitation to write THE BODY SNATCHERS. THE BODY SNATCHERS looks at the rampant conditioning of women and girls by those pushing starvation imagery. At no other time in history have women been so preoccupied with the shape they are in. Wherever we look - in magazines on television in films - the prevailing 'ideal' body shape for women is closer to a Barbie doll than a real woman. The cosmetics fashion and diet industries the mass media and the burgeoning business of cosmetic surgery all profit from this imagery. But for woman and girls there's a high price to pay: low esteem body hatred and eating disorders are now a major part of their lives. How do women combat this brainwashing and begin to believe that they are more than a dress size? By challenging the messages that saturate our media and refusing to buy their lies. THE BODY SNATCHERS is written in an engaging and witty style. Cyndi encourages women of all ages to stop obsessing about the shape they are in and to challenge society's preoccupation with the 'ideal' body which is both unnatural and for the vast majority of women unattainable.

Concentrated Wisdom for Juicy Women
Jean Shinoda Bolen's groundbreaking early work-most notably Goddesses in Everywoman-helped a generation of women realize their potential and their value. Half a million copies later the book still affects the lives of women.
In her latest book, Crones Don't Whine, Bolen's playful sense of humor and keen insight combine to offer women thirteen qualities to cultivate. Engage in these small practices and you're bound to be a happier person, who's doing her bit to make the world a better place.
"These qualities are not cultivated overnight," Bolen writes. Crone years are "growing" years, when women can devote their time, energy, and creativity to what really matters to them. Bolen offers us a blueprint: Crones don't whine; they're juicy and they trust their own instincts. Meditating, not groveling, and choosing the path with heart, crones are fierce about what matters to them. They speak the truth with compassion. They listen to their bodies, reinvent themselves, and savor the good in their lives.
Thirteen brief essays to turn to again and again, in bad times and good, alone and with others-because "Crones Together Can Change the World" as Bolen points out in an inspirational, call-to-arms bonus essay. This, along with Jean's personal musings and a rallying call to men to become crones as well, complete Crones Don't Whine.

DOUBLE GODDESS
Women Sharing Power
ISBN: 9781591430117
ISBN 10: 1591430119
Women Sharing Power
Numerous figures depicting two women in intimate relation with one another or as a single body with two heads have been discovered in important centres of early civilisations such as Catal Huyuk and Gozo. These have been routinely ignored by scholars or dismissed as mere dolls with no sacred connotations whatsoever. Vicki Noble shows to the contrary that this double goddess is an ancient icon that can considerably expand our understanding of female sovereignty as well as provide contemporary women with a way to reconnect with the integral sense of self and wholeness enjoyed by their ancestors. Ancient Goddess religion was informed by the organic cycles of nature--the dual poles of Life and Death. The double goddess represents phenomena such as the Earth-Moon pair the Upper-Underworld pair the Summer and Winter poles of the seasonal year and the dual poles of the female biological reality of menstruation and ovulation--the dark and the light. The double goddess in all her varied forms also depicts the vast array of potential relationships women can form with themselves and each other. This book is a celebration of an archetype that not only empowers women but also teaches them how to share that power with each other. · Offers an important symbol for modern women seeking to reconnect with their ancient integral sense of self and wholeness. · Presents an archetype for the sacred potential of female bonding whether between mother and daughter teacher and student friends or lovers. · Illustrated with 149 examples of double goddess images.

We are all too familiar with its symptoms: hot flushes night sweats anxiety irritability sleeplessness and more. While menopause triggers many physical and emotional changes it also brings forth spiritual issues that for many women mark a redefinition of the feminine self. To address the total impact of menopause Gabriele Kushi has created a supportive practical and personal guide to dealing with this time in a woman's life. The author first provides a clear understanding of the overall process of menopause from biological changes to emotional and spiritual challenges. She then goes on to offer research-based nutritional guidelines that can help relieve and overcome menopausal symptoms as well as healthy kitchen-tested recipes based on a natural foods diet. However it is the stories and portraits of twenty menopausal women that are at the heart and soul of the book. In their own words these beautiful women share their diverse experiences with the reader. They relate their backgrounds discuss their children and grandchildren and detail how and when they noticed their first menopausal symptoms as well as what they did to alleviate them.
