Summary "When we speak of making something, it is usually entails creating, manipulating, forming or conducting of some kind. In pregnancy, our bodies are wrapped up in doing all of these things on a grand scale. But in the act of making space in ourselves through mindfulness, none of these things apply. Here we engage in an act of not doing, of not changing but of simply 'being' in the experience of ourselves. Pregnancy is a phase in which to reconcile what has been, with what will become. It is a process and a time of change, and even more so for a first-time mother. It is a recognition of our dreams for the future being in transit, in gestation, in the making." --Publisher description.
