I had received a message from my friend who wasn’t in touch recent few years. But during that time I thought of her with warm feelings.
She wrote me she is pregnant now, and me too.
She is going to deliver a baby in this winter, and me too.
Her baby is a girl, and my baby might be a boy.
From her message, I was impressed she is so fulfilled and satisfied. I’m really happy that she sounds happy.
She wrote me she change her life “Less doing, more being” during pregnant period.
It is good coincidence we can share this time even in different country and traditions.
Less doing, more being… During pregnancy, I can’t control my body’s change, of course. The body knows without a word what is necessary for the baby and the body.
This is the same thing that child’s growing after her/his birth. Eyes and brain are rapidly progressing. The baby teeth fall out and adult teeth grow up.
In our childhoods our body is always changing without our mind and knowledge. After this natural process is done, I felt the body relatively becomes passive - I thought the body condition is based on how much I do exercise, what I eat for health, how much I feel intention and ease in daily life etc…
My body is not only mine during the pregnancy. And this limited time reminds me the body belongs to nature.
