"There is a power that comes to women when they give birth. They don't ask for it. It simply invades them. Accumulates like clouds on the horizon and passes through, carrying a child with it. Dependent on the genius of our bodies, we grow [our babies] in our womb. If and when we defer to that same genius during birth, if and when we invite and cultivate its power, we find that women can give birth 85 to 90 percent of the time without complication and without unreasonable bravery."
From "A Wise Birth", by Penny Armstrong, CNM homebirth midwife to Amish women in Pennsylvania
