A bold affirmation that we are sentient before conception and in the womb,The Secret Life of Babiesreveals author Mia Kalef's groundbreaking findings: babies are able to remember their earliest experiences, this consciousness precedes the physical development of the brain itself, and medical interventions during birthlike forceps and Cesareanscan imprint our relationships with the world and disconnect us from our sustainable place in the ecosystem. Kalef provides a six-step protocol for detecting these individual imprints and taking reparative steps for physiological and emotional balance and release. This book offers us an articulate guide to a transformation that can restore our essential nature.From the table of contents:Foreword by Andrew FeldmarIntroduction: The Myth: Science and Experience The Quest: Sparking the Conversation Who Is This Book For?
