Every woman that gives birth is a badass superhero. But in current times, childbirth has become dramatized and over-medicalised to the point that women fear it.
 
Throughout her career as a midwife, author Zoe Farrell has discovered that women can overcome fear with love. She aims to promote love through support, advocacy, knowledge... and humour. Yes, humour packs a power punch in times of fear. Women need a friendly, fun sidekick who has their back when fear comes a-knocking. But what they also need to discover is that, within them, they already possess the innate ability to knock fear out of the park and birth like a Badass Goddess.
 
Over the last fifteen years, Zoe has seen first-hand the detrimental effects of fear on childbirth. It causes a cascade of physical effects on labour, increasing pain perception and reducing the efficiency of contractions. Fear slows labour. A prolonged labour causes fear. Fear increases pain. Pain causes fear. It’s a catch-22 situation that will inevitably lead to trauma. And it doesn’t matter what women fear. The only problem is fear itself. This book will help women to overcome it.
 
Fear cannot exist in the presence of love. It’s as simple as that. It’s quantum physics. Emotions are energy. Raise your energetic vibration and fear cannot exist. It’s also basic spirituality. Love saves the day. This book teaches women that the most important ingredient in the birth process is to feel love and joy, so that fear cannot exist.

Easier said than done? How do you feel love and joy during childbirth when fear already has the better of you? Birth Essence offers a solution through an awakened approach to birth... aligning the mind, body, and spirit.
