44. Natural Birth and Technological Distractions

Birth led by nature is more than just having a natural birth, whatever that really means today - I have heard so many definitions the last few months, I doesn't even sound like a word any more! Birth lead by nature is more than avoiding interventions, in fact it has very little to do with these things, but it has everything to do with the intentionality of life.

I am going to share some thoughts that might go against what is commonly accepted today, in the hopes that we will continue to break through the status quo, go beyond the regular definitions, see through routine procedure, and see birth and life through new lenses and fresh perspectives. 

Today I will share some ideas and probably ramble a bit about some ideas of natural pregnancy, natural birth and the impact of technology in prenatal care and birth on this episode of the Journey to Birth podcast. 

Also I shared an announcement - as we enter into the final months of 2020, I may have to put new episodes on hold for the rest of the year, or nearly so, which means there may be some gaps or rebroadcasts in the coming weeks, so I if I don't catch you in the meantime, wishing you a wonderful holiday season with your family, I know it will be here fast!
