The Global Birthing Village GRAVITA is the fifth and fundamentally new type of the place for childbirth for the modern world. Located in one of the most environmentally friendly places in the world, GRAVITA includes all the advantages of places for childbirth and eliminates their shortcomings.

Imagine the optimum place for a natural childbirth, where parents-to-be create their own “birthing nest” during pregnancy, living in one of 150 separate huts of an eco-village located in relict forests of Brazil on the ocean coast Costa Verde, between the famous Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo.

5 years of their international work on 5 continents, mothers from the Miracle in the Heart project on natural childbirth share their findings, best practices, gifts and hopes.

“How can I explain to my husband that I want a child?”, “What if my husband doesn’t want children or is set against having a second child?” — “Ask him, why he married you!” This article of Mikhail Fomin explains the meaning of a family and contains answers to these perturbing questions that manywomen might ask when they desperately want children.

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.
