I trained to be Mom's labor coach. I had been through the classes with her and Dad for the first birth. I would have to be Dad this time. Mom and I actually got pretty close as a result. #doula #suicide #trauma #cptsd #writer #sociology

Okay... it just occurred to me that I'm a doula.

"Dafuq??"

Hear me out.

At the neuroqueer meetings, I don't pontificate for two hours. I am facilitating the discussion. Like a doula. The doula does not give birth but facilitates the birth.

Similarly, when I tutor, I usually facilitate the student's understanding. They bring me their problems and we discuss them. I explain theory as needed.

(I could teach a class from scratch, but I've not done it, and to be frank, I don't think it is a great use of anyone's time or money.)

@AssociatedPress @health-AssociatedPress Great article, but whoa, I really question the use of "luxury" in the headline. Really, it's more like "Once shunned by the medical establishment, doula care is going mainstream." #doula #doulas

My new book "Visualizing Birth" is officially published!

It’s a short book with beautiful images that has roots in my PhD research on #visualization and art in Chinese religious traditions, in my own experience using visualization during birth, and in years of reading about visualization across fields such as neuroscience, philosophy, and sports psychology. It's also a celebration of 15 years writing my blog of the same name, which I started in 2010 during my second pregnancy when these ideas first took hold of me.

If you're interested in the mind-body connection, birth, or the surprising science of mental imagery, the book is a great read. If you know someone who is pregnant, or works in the birth community (midwives, nurses, doulas, prenatal yoga instructors, acupuncturists, etc.), this is a lovely gift. Available in softcover, hardcover, and PDF. #birth #childbirth #pregnancy #midwife #doula #birthart https://www.blurb.com/b/12773676-visualizing-birth
