Ten golden rules for future parents

“Musical education begins before birth,” explained renowned violinist Yehudi Menuhin; sing to your child, the father and you. Hum your joy. Cradle your baby in your heart’s music, and all three of you will incredibly benefit from it on a cellular level. After being born, your baby will remember your voices and their musicality. You will have contributed to your child’s clear thinking and aptitude to express it well.

Listen to music and sing, play an instrument!

When you happen to admire high mountains or walk among grand trees in a forest, link your child to their majesty. This magnificent and humbling experience will incline your child to always be moved by what is unfathomable and inspires us. Comforting will be inscribed in your child and you will thus shield him or her from pride.

Imagine your child as a seeder of peace.

Breathe the fragrance of flowers and the natural scents you like. Your baby receives them! The sense of smell also balances the emotional brain, it welcomes the fragrance of a plant as a transfusion of energy. “Breath is the bridge which connects life to consciousness, which unites your body to your thoughts.” Thich Nhat Hanh

Breathing deeply.

Mother, as much as possible, spend your pregnancy in joy, elevation, gratitude and wonder. Sing, read, walk, engage in all that inspires you, so that happiness hormones circulate in your blood and your child’s body develops harmoniously. The brain will build itself well and later your child will be intelligent, attentive, healthy, dynamic, balanced, sociable, patient, psychologically resilient, caring and joyous! As a mother, your soul’s higher states are excellent material for a robust foundation of this future adult’s health, intelligence and talents!

Rejoice in your new work: Nine months… to engender a new world!

The first gaze you exchange, your body warmth, your touch, your scent, your voice, the first breastfeeding, compose the very best welcome for your child. A welcome that conveys to both of you a deep seeded feeling of safety, cradle of emotional and social intelligences! Moreover, this skin-to-skin contact ensures an optimal microbial colonization, so vital for the nascent immune system.

Birth: a meeting of souls – Breastfeeding: a great mystery.

Each meal is a rendezvous of love with life. Sit at the table calm, joyful and thankful. Think of the path the seed undertook until the food you are eating, how nature nurtured it, the virtues it is now transmitting to you. And surrender to a feeling of gratitude towards this generous offering. Chew each mouthful thoroughly while breathing mindfully, your digestion will be helped and the food will nourish you even more. To savor what you eat harmonizes your emotional brain, it is a sure way to obtain more wisdom and health for you and your baby. When you eat well, you give your child a healthy body while transmitting good eating habits for life!

Rest, live and eat well.

While admiring the first light rays at sunrise, ask for your child a luminous intelligence and a heart filled with kindness, goodness and love. Wish for your child a strong and creative will along with a healthy and vigorous body. Remember, your imagination is endowed with a formative power!

The colors of light and their power.

Long before conceiving a child, choose to quit smoking, not to drink alcohol, to eat healthy, to take walks in nature while breathing deeply, and above all to nurture for each other a profound and spiritual love. May communication between you be infused with kindness, admiration and joy. Prepare your child’s arrival in a state of plenitude; be aware that your organism and your mind need time in order to prepare for a new arrival. Then, give your child the time to come to you.

Conception is the beginning!

In order to form a child beautiful in mind and spirit, cultivate happy emotions. Learn to transform anguish, fear, sadness, anger and sorrow. During pregnancy, fearing the unknown is often a source of anxiety. Take refuge in the present moment; offer your womb to your growing baby as a nest tender and warm.

Beauty at the heart of your life.

And your child will be capable of self-love, love for others and for Life! Communicate with your baby, talk to your baby who is cradled in your womb and hears you, understands you… listen to his or her messages! Offer your baby the joy of a sweet welcome to earth. The more you value your baby, the more he or she will, feel empowered to rejoice in life. Both of you can caress the baby through your belly. He or she will feel the thrill of being acknowledged! French neonatologist Jean-Pierre Relier explains that “Love for the prenate is the most appropriate stimulant for the creation of brain synapses.”

Love her, love him!
