ENLIGHTENMENT THROUGH MOTHERHOOD stirs up some ideas we have come to accept as true over time, ideas which have led to the existing hierarchy and polarisation of the types of life experience, which have in turn led to the needless suffering of many people. ENLIGHTENMENT THROUGH MOTHERHOOD offers a new and empowering way of understanding life, a way which will give countless women (and men who are willing to embrace a new paradigm) the happiness, fulfilment and even ecstasy that is rightfully ours.
According to Dr Sidra Stone: "ENLIGHTENMENT THROUGH MOTHERHOOD is absolutely brilliant! This book is just what the world needs now as our planet continues to move towards political and ecological disaster while the patriarchal systems that still dominate our thinking continue to devalue everything traditionally - and biologically - female.
"In a most perfect balance of yin and yang, of logic and feeling, of humor and gravity, Astra Niedra reclaims for all human beings – not just women – a precious element of that which is truly sacred in life. Her simple, spellbinding stories, her keen intellect, and her unfailing humor make this book a pleasure to read.
"Here is a new way of thinking of spirituality, of valuing our humanity while living a spirit-infused life, and a fascinating (and novel) path to enlightenment! It’s a consciousness changer and I loved it."
Astra Niedra is an internationally respected facilitator and teacher of the personal growth and relationship healing system Voice Dialogue. She writes extensively on relationships and consciousness growth, and is author of the books The Perfect Relationship and Enlightenment Through Motherhood. For many years she wrote the pre-blog email newsletter Daily Voice Dialogue which has been used in teaching institutions worldwide, and she has been Editor of WellBeing magazine.
The Perfect Relationship has been endorsed by notable psychotherapists and consciousness teachers Dr Hal Stone and Dr Sidra Stone and by Australia's leading personal growth teacher Michael Rowland. It has been brilliantly reviewed in magazines such as Family Circle and The Sunday Telegraph.
Enlightenment Through Motherhood has struck a chord with women worldwide. It has been endorsed by midwife and birth educator Susan Ross, and Dr Sidra Stone says it offers "a new way of thinking about spirituality, of valuing our humanity while living a spirit-infused life".
