Deepen your breath with essential oils and clean air. Warm your tummy with nourishing foods. Feel your center and strengthen your core with intuition. Share and rediscover with your baby the joy of nature and language. Learn to ask questions, settle anxieties, and employ strategies when you suspect developmental delays. Equip yourself with a postpartum depression-busting wellness plan as well as a process to become sensational in the face of being a single mom. Plan ahead with finances and luck cycles. Most importantly, awaken refreshed from great "mountain" feng shui.

Let these amazing mama entrepreneurs and professionals from diverse fields of expertise hold your hand, save you time, change your life and give you more sleep!

FOR MOMS BY MOMS ABOUT MOMS

For the first time, new mothers can expect to find a book that is entirely devoted to smoothing out the rapid transition after delivery when creating a new family. This book, unlike many others, is focused on helping the new mom navigate all areas of care that a new arrival necessitates.

The chapters in this book emerge as five sections:

~ Mama Care, especially for the first six weeks after delivery (with yummy postpartum recipes from Traditional Chinese Medicine traditions)

~ Self Care, to give new moms permission to care for themselves (including essential oils and cultivating one's Mother Intuition)

~ Baby Care, to make motherhood easier for mama (e.g., cloth diapering made easy)

~ Home Care, for peaceful havens (indoors and out)

~ Family Care, for easing into parenthood with a significant other (including financial planning and adventures in multilingualism)

On promotional days, New Moms, New Families have made two #1 Amazon bestselling lists:
Kindle ebooks > Health, Fitness & Dieting > Personal Health > Healthy Living
Kindle ebooks > Nonfiction > Parenting & Relationships > Family Relationships > Motherhood

You asked for it. We have it! Now the sequel to NEW MOMS, NEW FAMILIES is out!

這些書的來臨是已經過了一個夏天，是當我的母親在測試我在回憶裏寫中文字的能力。她會高聲説出一個中文字，她口述後將這個字放在一個句子裏，與及要求我寫出正確的字符兼且正確的筆劃次序。

然後我開始創作我的句子並且將句子寫在白板上。逐漸地，我想出一個理念去寫這本書。我的媽媽幫助我令到這本書成為可能的事。多謝你，媽媽！

In the elementary school author’s words:

These books came to be over one summer, when my mother was testing my ability to write Chinese characters from memory. She would say the character aloud, use it in a sentence she dictated and ask me to write the character not only correctly but in the right stroke order.

Then I started to create my own sentences and write them on the white board. Little by little, I came up with the idea to write this book. My mother helped me make this book possible. Thank you, Mom!

Thanks also goes to Grandma, who helped as my Chinese language consultant for things Mom was not certain about.

The Yin and Yang of Loss Jan 25, 2017

by Gloria Ng

$4.99

"As a Buddhist 'mother' of two 'children,' I was shocked to receive the news of their death both times. How could they have passed away before me? How could they have gone when they were at the prime of their life? Distraught, I could not let a piece of me die with them. Nor could I let a piece of them die in me."

THE YIN AND YANG OF LOSS is a successor's tribute to two people, unique to their bonds of friendship and life circumstances. This eponymous work succeeds an anthologized piece that first debuted in Red Skirt, Blue Jeans: True Stories from the Berkeley Public Library Memoir Writers and includes the following:

* images/illustrations/photographs to accompany the text
* foot, hand and ear treatment for leisure and reflection
* questions for discussion and journaling

by Gloria Ng

( 3 )

$2.99

A nuts-and-bolts approach on how to actualize the New Age concept of living in the present moment before conception, during pregnancy, throughout delivery and in the midst of postpartum motherhood for the busy woman who desires to do and have it all.

Birth Formations: What Multiple Home Births Teach About Living, Laboring, and Mothering in the Now

Encapsulates over ten years of practice in the holistic healing arts and alternative health field to tackle the sensitive and controversial note that all of our reality rests on our ability to think things through.

The delicate and intense call of motherhood states unequivocally that:

"You can't think your baby out."

This book aims to break that one sentence down into doable parts.

Part I: Beginnings

This section targets preconceived notions about how to create our reality/birth/presence/experience.

Parts II, III, IV: Births

These sections illuminate the lessons the author has learned and include exercises to process and prepare for delivery and a more smooth integration of these principles in daily life.

Part V: Beyond

This section gives you permission to fly.

$3.99

Learn how to make a bowl of colorful fruit salad!

Mama Gloria Chinese-English Bilingual Books are a great introduction to high-interest topics for early readers. Each page has full-color photographs that go with the story and also highlights useful words. Text is shown in traditional Chinese characters, Mandarin pin yin, simplified Chinese characters, and English.

In addition to a list of useful vocabulary, at the back of each paperback are links to bonus audio files in Cantonese, Mandarin and American English read by the author at a slow pace for easy-to-use reference. These audio files are designed for older readers, such as adults, to read alongside early readers as young as from birth.

Use the following tips to maximize the use of each book and make them family favorites.

For newborns (0-6 months old): Instead of reading the text on the whole page, just point to the object that is on the page or a certain word that describes the object on the page.

For preverbal, babbling stage (6-12 months old): Continue to use the objects on the page. Try reading the whole sentence aloud and see how your child responds.

For toddlers (12 months-36 months): The older your child gets, the more you can start bringing more attention to the actual words on the page. You will be surprised at how well your child fares with whole word recognition.

For preschool and kindergarten: You can definitely start teaching spelling of the English words and how to even write some of the Chinese characters with their developing fine motor skills.
