Home waterbirths can be so happy and healthy. I have been fortunate to assist midwife Marina (editor’s note: Dadasheva-Drown) and to witness many of these ecstatic deliveries. These births were a result of the ‘training’ that the pregnant women undertook with spiritual midwife Marina. The training involves not only the physical but also the mind (especially the mind’s ‘attitude’) and the spirit. The prenatal training is a preparation for labor and delivery and also prepares the mother for vigorous postnatal dynamic gymnastics for baby. Yoga is a very good preparation as is swimming.

How waterbirths were carried out in the Soviet Union, what was the Tao of Marina Dadasheva’s spiritual midwifery, what secrets do Marina Dadasheva and Colin Drown use during and after deliveries? For the first time ever, personal memories of Marina Dadasheva-Drown are on the Internet!
