The poses are broken into four sections: hands and knees, seated, standing, and restorative poses. Birth partners are also discussed in many poses. After the yoga poses, the following chapters give detailed explanations of: birth meditations mothers can use, affirmations (short written sayings to use for labor), verbalizations, breath work, and sound. These chapters offer ways of using your mind and breath before, during, and after labor. All meditations are easy enough for beginners.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThroughout the book, the inclusion of journaling topics with blank space for writing elevates the book from reading material into a personal journey.
