Bless You Mom-Conscious Thoughts for the Mothering Journey is a unique product made by mothers for mothers. Elizabeth Carovillano, our own beloved Marketing Director, collaborated with educator Harmony Rose West to create this stunning deck of affirmation cards. Elizabeth lovingly shaped each card into an image of feminine beauty, as she incorporated symbols and archetypal images into their design. Harmony, using her intuition and years of experience, crafted words that focus on the inner journey of mothering. All 56 cards are round, representing the never-ending circle of life. The deck is organized around the colors of the rainbow; each of the seven colors signifies aspects of energy, thought and consciousness. Holding one of these beautiful cards in your hand is like sitting with a wise grandmother.

Today may I choose harmony instead of power over my child.

Today may I marvel at my child’s wisdom and anchor in my own.

Today may I shine my inner light and be a healing presence for my family.

In this funny, poignant and touching monologue show, five women and one man share their original stories about the journey of birth. One woman, spurred by the abandonment she felt by her own mother, has an unassisted childbirth to ensure her ability to bond with her newborn without interference. The child's father shares his tender and funny story from the "dad's" point of view. A teen mom shares the pain, terror and joy of her daughter's birth and the healing the event brought to her own soul. A mom of four shares the stories of each of their births and the love for her kids as some of her own dreams fell apart. A woman who is an actress "forgets to have children" until her forties when the doctor tells her its too late. Instead, she channels her mothering instincts into volunteering with the organization, Many Mothers and helps other mothers and babies in need.
