Prenatal Life and Sustainable Development

The 7 Principles of Natural Prenatal Education

1. Woman is the mother of humanity and holds the keys to its development
   
   

2. Mothers have the innate power to love, nurture and support the human family
   
   

3. The prenatal baby is conscious and these first nine months leave a life long imprint
   
   

4. The seeds of war or peace, health and emotional security are sown in the mother's womb
   
   

5. The mother’s thoughts, feelings and imagination are the prenatal baby's first environment
   
   

6. Womb ecology is the foundation of sustainable development, prosperity and security for all
   
   

7. Mothers' freedom to choose a respectful, natural and peaceful birth is a fundamental human right
   

“Natural prenatal education will considerably improve public physical and psychological health whilst decreasing violence and crime. This will greatly impact the economy, creativity, peace, happiness and sustainable development in the world. We call upon NGO’s, governments, national and international health and education institutions and all individuals to integrate, emphasise and diffuse this vital knowledge in the best interest of all humanity.” Justice Ioanna Mari, President, OMAEP
