Jeffrey L. Fine - The Art of Conscious Parenting

A new model for creating, rediscovering, and renewing the intimate bonds between parents and children. Our time in the womb and our first days and months of life are critical in forming the attitudes we bring into adulthood and in structuring the roots of our personality and future physical health. Undisturbed birth and simple bonding techniques - long forgotten in our modern world but stemming from the age-old customs of traditional cultures - are at the core of this new model of conscious parenting that supports the development of happy, intelligent children and healthy mothers. These practices also help parents experience an increase in joy and intimacy both with their children and with each other.
