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 vision of the quilt, and more info about the raffle, see http://sparklinglotusink.com/PPQP.html (NB ticket prices on this site are in US Dollars).
 
 As well as the quilt, ancillary prizes include a copy of the book Lotus Birth (with chapter by JP - see http://www.acegraphics.com.au/product/book/bk663.html)  and, for Australian supporters, three copies of the 2005 Bellies Bots, Boobs and Babes calendars, valued at $15 each.(See http://www.cybercoast.com.au/homebirth/calendar.htm)
Also an additional ancillary prize -- JP is donating her newest collection of writing, THE POSSIBLE MOTHER BOOKLET valued at $25AUS -- a compilation of her columns 2002-2004 for the U.K. magazine, The Mother, see http://www.birthkeeper.com/Giftshop.html
