can be anything, your intentions for your pregnancy and delivery, your intentions for your

baby's well-being, your intentions for your baby's life.

You can continue to have your hands on your belly during this meditation if you'd like,

your body to be in your awareness.

Once you listen to this meditation, thoughts will come and go. It doesn't matter. You don't

Bring your attention to your breath. Notice the end and out of the breath. Feel how your body moves as it
