From Womb to World: The Journey That Shapes Our Life
Watch: From Womb to World -- The journey that shapes our life: Anna Verwaal at TEDxABQWomen
"More than four decades of research in the field of pre and perinatal psychology and health shows that the most critical formative period, and the difference in ‘thriving or surviving’ between birthdays goes back even earlier than birth. Findings point to the time shortly before conception to after birth as the most sensitive and critical period in establishing patterns in all areas of our life; physical, mental, emotional, and relational.
Realizing on a personal level how these circumstances have affected us can help us to change our belief-system and greatly improve the quality of our life.
Understanding how the journey from womb to world shaped our life not only helps being able to free ourselves from the inherited patterns and beliefs we acquired while ‘marinating’ inside amniotic fluid, filled with the flavors of our mothers’ emotional life and state of mind. It will also inspire anyone who is thinking of becoming a parent and would like to know more about how to prevent their future baby from being born with an inheritance of their emotional pain, fears and unresolved issues."
