"Next Best Thing" Game $20.00
**SALE** (regularly $24.95)
A lively game of preparation and final review for expectant parents, childbirth classes and doulas. This Game Teaches, Reviews and Reinforces: -The practice of embracing what is -Assessing (not judging) the situation -A solution-focused mindset (rather than a problem- or avoidance-focused mindset) -Considering all possible solutions from cards held in their hands (ranging from common sense, parent-can-do solutions to what the medical model might offer) -Finally, doing what needs to be done next...without striving for a particular outcome.
Labor and postpartum situations presented in this game are mostly ordinary and always brief; there are no happy or sad endings to any of the scenarios that would suggest that "choices" made by the players lead them to achieve a desired outcome. The situations presented are created in part by the childbirth teacher/mentor and partly by the random drawing of face-down Birth Fairy and Time cards.
The cards are printed in color on sturdy glossy card stock, 2.75" x 4.75", and fit in a black 5x7" draw-string velour bag. Each of the 141 "Next Best Thing" cards belongs to one of the following categories:
Things Parents Can Do ( e.g., Drink Fluids, Walk)
Medical Support (e.g., IV, Pitocin)
Birth Fairy (situations that arise, e.g., Water Breaks)
Time (e.g. An Hour Later)
This game was conceived of and illustrated by Pam England.

**NEW** Labyrinth of Birth $13.95
JUST RELEASED!
Pam England, author and founder of "BIRTHING FROMWITHIN," is reviving a nearly forgotten tradition of using labyrinth meditations, ceremonies and great stories in childbirth preparation and healing. She wrote this book in response to a growing yearning among new parents for ceremony and personal growth during the childbearing year.
The timeless and powerful symbol of the labyrinth forms the core of this collection of fourteen meditations and ceremonies designed to transform the experience of the childbearing year. A variety of labyrinths, including childbirth labyrinths from many cultures and traditions, are presented in this book, along with the history and symbolism of the labyrinth and black-and-white illustrations and photos on nearly every page. Beautiful instructions for drawing and making a variety of labyrinths are included.
This book is essential for pregnant women and anyone who works with women in the childbearing year. Makes a lovely gift for a mother-to-be: the perfect companion to "BIRTHING FROMWITHIN."
Mentors and parents love using these cards. Each card has thought-provoking comments and questions to help parents reflect on and learn from their birth art process. Nine colorful, attractive cards are printed on 4" x 6" glossy card stock and bound together on a ring.
