Birth - Traumatic or Ecstatic?
Wednesday, February 29, 2012 7:00pm

Childbirth is one of the most magnificent and miraculous experiences of our lives; it is the most profound and powerful event of nature! While all of us accept that birth is a natural event, most of us associate it with medicine, hospital, and technology. However, few of us realize that high-technology interventions may disrupt and alter the naturally unfolding physiological process of childbirth, resulting in unnecessary cesarean sections and increased health risks. For this reason, the U.S. has one of the poorest outcomes of childbirth in the entire industrialized world. Join haikProject on February 29th and learn how to avoid hospital protocols that may result in invasive high-tech interventions. Childbirth can be blissful or miserable - the mother's knowledge and preparation can have a great impact on the experience. Your child is too precious for you to ever say, "I wish I had known." Presented by Medical Anthropologist Astrik Vardanyan Foreword by Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist Dr. Arthur Pogosyan Process group by Psychologist Dr. Lisa Manuelian Wednesday, February 29, at 7:00 pm Admission fee $25. Become a member to attend all seminars for $40 annually. Artek Daycare, 546 Broadway, Glendale, 91204 Call 818-392-HAIK(4245) or visit haikProject.org
