Kristin Graf has developed a highly effective, evidence-based method for mental birth preparation that helps make positive birth experiences possible. Scientifically sound yet personal, she explains how we can influence our subjective experience of pain. We learn how to align our conscious and unconscious minds so that we go into birth self-determined and excited, and how to stay completely with ourselves even in challenging situations.- The book to the well-known birth preparation method- Affirmations and mental techniques for an anxiety-free pregnancy- Kristin Graf has already successfully accompanied over 14¿000 pregnant women "I heartily recommend Kristin's method because it strengthens confidence in one's own ability to give birth and creates an ideal mindset for a positive, empowering birth experience."
