The Sacred Path of Midwifery
The POWER of birthing
Is that it shows women who they are to 
themselves
And to others . . .
For we cannot give birth without also catching a glimpse
Of our SACRED reflections
In the clear light of SPIRIT . . .

We are all midwives-to our dreams and ourselves. In this -powerful and insightful book, Karen Melody Shatar explores both the actual and metaphorical roles of midwifery as fertile ground for spiritual, emotional, and psychological growth. The Sacred Path of Midwifery is also an interweaving of stories from the perspectives of the midwife and the birthing woman. 
The power of a woman's story told in her own words never loses its impact upon us. It speaks of strength and struggle, faith and courage. It is based on the belief that everything and everyone in our lives is, or can be, a teacher. It is about trusting the guiding force that leads us to the inner field of greater understanding. 
Not since Spiritual Midwifery has there been a book that reveals the magic and mystery of the landscape called Birth as it unfolds between the midwife and birthing moms and their families.
