Astra Niedra

Astra Niedra writes books, articles and blogs about personal growth, relationships and conscious parenting. Her work shines light on why we behave and feel the way we do and it offers practical solutions for lasting change.

Join me on this escape to the tropical paradise of Port Douglas in Australia's Far North, where you'll laugh and cry at my futile attempt at a relaxing holiday with two young children while heavily pregnant with a third. And you will make an amazing discovery: that the daily chores and states of mind needed to raise young children are exactly the same as the practices recommended in Eastern spiritual traditions to attain enlightenment!

This book will lift your spirits to the highest rung on the ladder to higher consciousness and make you feel your efforts at mothering are of such immense value that you will forever more be nothing less than proud of the remarkable job you - and most of us - do.

For a limited time you can print this e-book. Normally e-books are only for reading on-screen but as many people prefer to read on paper, we have made this e-book printable.

"Enlightenment Through Motherhood is absolutely brilliant!  This book is just what the world needs now as our planet continues to move towards political and ecological disaster while the patriarchal systems that still dominate our thinking continue to devalue everything traditionally - and biologically - female.

In a most perfect balance of yin and yang, of logic and feeling, of humor and gravity, Astra Niedra reclaims for all human beings – not just women – a precious element of that which is truly sacred in life.

Her simple, spellbinding stories, her keen intellect, and her unfailing humor make this book a pleasure to read. Here is a new way of thinking of spirituality, of valuing our humanity while living a spirit-infused life, and a fascinating (and novel) path to enlightenment! It’s a consciousness changer and I loved it."

"Enlightenment indeed! I hope many women have the opportunity to read Astra's book. Being pregnant, birthing and mothering are the most important jobs on earth. Honouring these roles is important for governments and society to appreciate and elevate to a much higher status. Astra's journey is familiar, delightfully written and inspiring."

Susan Ross, midwife, birth educator and author of Birth Right
