There are now translations in Dutch, German, Portuguese (and other languages too!) of the 'acupressure for childbirth' booklet. I have shared this booklet (written by Debra Betts, Midwife and Acupuncturist) with many of my patients over the years - it's an amazing resource

Just one month to go until this workshop. Take a little time out of life's busyness and along. If you have any questions about the day, meditation or anything else, please ask :)

I'm working with the fabulous Mima from HedgeRose Healing to provide a wonderful day exploring mindfulness and meditation at the Milner Institute, Moore on Sunday 1st October. We hope you can join us! https://m.facebook.com/events/664507863740133?notif_t=plan_admin_added&notif_id=1501674606328552&ref=m_notif

Feeling hot, hot, hot? Try some delicious watermelon 🍉 It clears heat from the body, benefits the heart, bladder and stomach and calms the spirit. Steer clear of ice cold drinks as long term, these can damage your digestive fire🔥 http://blog.aoma.edu/blog/bid/317696/Chinese-Medicine-Nutrition-Benefits-of-Watermelon

Acupressure could decrease the rate of Caesarian sections and decrease the duration of labour. Acupressure can be taught to expectant mums and their partners so a great 'tool' to have up your birthing sleeve! https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/27569023/
