Feng Shui Mommy: Creating Balance and Harmony for Blissful Pregnancy, Childbirth, and Motherhood

SHOW GUEST: Bailey Gaddis

Before she was a beloved pregnancy blogger, certified birthing doula, and childbirth preparation educator, author Bailey Gaddis met her own pregnancy by buying a bunch of books - which, for the most part, made her even more confused, insecure, and scared.

Feng Shui Mommy: Creating Balance and Harmony for Blissful Pregnancy, Childbirth, and Motherhood is her way of giving pregnant women and new moms a better option. Adopting the principles and philosophy of feng shui, the Chinese system of a connected inner and outer harmony, this book guides women to their balanced center and supports them in tapping into the primal energies brought forth in the birthing experience.

Feng Shui Mommy offers a holistic approach to pregnancy and child rearing, with chapters dedicated to the mind, body, and spirit for each trimester. The book is composed of four parts- First Trimester, Second Trimester, Third Trimester, and the Fourth Trimester, which happens to be the first three months after the baby is born. Illustrations enliven the text throughout. Feng Shui Mommy is an oasis that welcomes all, encouraging each woman to unapologetically embrace her own journey," writes Bailey. "This book gives you permission to follow your own path to birth and beyond."
