-----Original Message----- From: Sarah J Buckley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, 13 September 2004 8:12 PM To: Sarah Buckley Subject: raffle to support Jeanine Parvati Baker, birthkeeper Dear friends
I am organising the Australian branch of a US raffle to benefit my
friend and mentor Jeanine Parvati Baker.
Jeanine Parvati Baker has been a birthkeeper, as she
calls herself, for over 30 years. Jeanine Parvati wrote the
first-ever book on prenatal yoga in 1972 (Prenatal Yoga and Natural
Childbirth,recently revised) and has been attending women as a lay
midwife in her home state of Utah for a generation. A mother of 6 and
grandmother, she is also an accomplished herbalist (as her book Hygeia, A
Woman's Herbal shows); astrologer and yogini. She also co-wrote the awesome
Conscious Conception, one of my favourite-ever books.Jeanine Parvati coined the
phrase Healing birth is healing the earth, and her life has been dedicated to
this work for everyone on our planet. JP visited Australia in 1996,
where she touched many lives and families, including mine. For more about JP and
her writing, see her luscious site www.birthkeeper.com.
Jeanine Parvati has been seriously unwell this year, and unable to
work. A raffle has been organised by her friends, based in the US, with
first prize of a gorgeous king-size quilt,named Parvati's paradise. For a
