“Search for Mother” by Valerie Albrecht First Edition: Pub Inkwell Productions Arizona USA (Feb 2010) Click the picture at left or here to view my Book Trailer
“It seems that I’ve always held a deep longing to connect with the who and why of mother: the mother we have, the mother we long for, the mother we become, and the mother we long to be, and to unravel the divine orchestration of mother –daughter relationship. From this longing, and through the opportunities I’ve had to share yoga birthing with women around the world, I began to write “Search for Mother”. It is written in three trimesters and took me to Portugal, the place of my maternal lineage - this story has become Trimester 1. And to America to study hypnotherapy and it’s significance in unraveling mother. Here I had the priveledge and blessing to meet with like minded practitioners. This sharing of knowledge became Trimester 2, a body of medical and yoga information honouring the emotional and spiritual journey into motherhood, with contributions from birth workers in America, India and Australia. Also here, seven women tell of their search for connection to mother. In Trimester 3, the body talks of its’ experience of “mother searching” through yoga, dreams, de ja vu, and past life meanderings. The search interweaves poetry, prose, storytelling, interview and yoga practice. I discovered that the love – rejection, disconnection - connection duality toward mother, lives in the hearts of women everywhere, and more profoundly, that mother hearts keep loving whilst holding the aching yearning for connection, despite disconnection. Crucially, “Search for Mother” offers women ways to come to peace and acceptance toward their mother and toward becoming mother, while also offering birthing practitioners and health organizations ways to support and assist women in their emotional and spiritual metamorphis into mother. I offer you my “Search for Mother”, and truly hope it finds a place in yours, so you may find her, move closer to her and live peacefully with her during birthing and beyond. "May you hold gently the stars that come to you.”
FURTHER ENDORSEMENTS:
“Your book is everything I believe and wish for in this world when it comes to mothers wanting to birth well and in control, and the connection we have early in the pregnanacy and possibly before”. Bangalow Australia reader "Thank you for your work. I have for years felt that prenatal care has been lacking and the education in the hospitals is how to behave in the system rather than for people to understand the importance for themselves and their baby of pregnancy and the birth process. Your book is great the amount of good you have acheived is unmeasurable. Thank you again for your work. Melbourne Reader “I've got everything I need and I'm the most unhappy I've ever been. I'm going to buy your book because it is about contentment and that's what I want.” Sydney millionaire.
