Product Description
Different from a baby shower, where
gifts are lavished upon the soon-to-be-born child, a blessingway ceremony honors the mother-to-be and creates a circle of support that will cradle her as she prepares to give birth. Surrounded by the most important women in her life, she can explore the challenges and joys that lie before her, gaining a sense of power and confidence that will help her rise to motherhood. MOTHER RISING shows women how to organize and personalize a blessingway for the expecting friends and familyan experience that will give the mother-to-be the best possible
gifts of deep happiness, serenity, and abundance of love.
Reader ReviewsI created a unique and beautiful blessingway for my dear friend with this book. It lists several ideas for different stages and types of blessingways. It gives a little history as well. What I liked best about the book is that it left the blessingway up to me to plan, there was no rigged 'this is the way it must be done'. It also was written for any religious belief system to create a blessingway, honoring your guest of honors' beliefs is easy with this book!
