Enjoy!

Oooo pretty!

Book review: The Natural Pregnancy Book

Hey everyone! So today I have a book review to share with you guys! When  I get older, I would like to be a doula, so the book today is called The Natural Pregnancy Book. It was perfect because it gave me a lot of information on natural ways to ease pain and discomfort using herbs and massages, instead of medicines.
This book covers topics like herbal preparation, safe herbs to use during pregnancy, and prenatal care. It focus more on midwifery and birthing at home, rather than in a hospital with a doctor. I would recommend this book for anyone interested in midwifery and becoming a doula. It's also really good for expecting mothers who would like to have a natural pregnancy. One thing I really enjoyed about The Natural Pregnancy Book is that it gives herbal uses and exercises for some common concerns in pregnancy. For example, for iron deficiency anemia they recommend you eat foods like seaweeds (kelp and dulse specifically) because they are a good source of iron.

 

 

 

Have a great day!

   I received this book from Blogging for Books for this review.

Encouraging Bible verses about hope

Hey everyone!
Today I have some Bible verses about hope to share with you. These Bible verses will help you when you're going through a tough time and need a little reminder that God is always there for you.

2 Corinthians 4:16-18
"Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day.  For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal."

Psalm 27:4-5

 ^"One thing I ask from the Lord, this only do I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze on the beauty of the Lord and to seek him in his temple.  For in the day of trouble he will keep me safe in his dwelling; he will hide me in the shelter of his sacred tent
and set me high upon a rock."

 

 

Zephaniah 3:17

^" The Lord your God is with you, the Mighty Warrior who saves. He will take great delight in you;
in his love he will no longer rebuke you, but will rejoice over you with singing.”

 

 

Revelation 21:4

 "He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”

 

 

John 6:33

"I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world." 

 

 

Psalms 46:1

"God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.”

 

 

Hebrews 11:1

"Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see."  

 

 

1 Thessalonians 4:13

"Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest, who have no hope."  

 

 

Jeremiah 29:11

"For I know the plans I have for you", says the Lord, "plans to prosper you, and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

 

Have any comments? Are any of you guys going through a tough time? Do you have a topic you would like me to feature (joy, peace, love, etc.)?

Have a great day!

New poll open!

Hey everyone!
I just started a new poll if you would like to check it out! It's on the side of the page.
The question is: "What's your favourite season?"
You may comment and let me know why you chose that answer, if you would like. My favourite season is probably either autumn or spring. They're both wonderful! :)
Have a great day!
