Product Description

All psychotherapists work on the basis of a person s early experience, even if many give little weight to the primal stage spanning from before conception to infancy, yet primal awareness is growing. In the last fifteen years our biochemical understanding of emotions/hormones and of nutrition has burgeoned and brain scans have rapidly advanced our understanding of feelings, behaviour and performance. These advances support Ridgway s work as outlined in The Unborn Child. The book describes perinatal and prenatal development, considering both parents and the maternal grandmother s legacy of health. Also explored are the effects of the mother s mental and physical state during pregnancy on her child-to-be s physiology and psychology. Understanding these issues offers a way of healing early problems contributing to such disorders as depression or compulsive behaviour. These ideas, when acted on, are invaluable in generating children with their full genetic potential, being both emotionally stable and basically healthy.

About the Author
Roy Ridgway is the author of two ground breaking books on prenatal and perinatal experiences and the effects of nutrition on babies in the womb. In the middle of the 1970s he directed the Sparsholt Psychotherapeutic Centre, Winchester. At the end of the 1970s he joined the British Medical Association secretariat and edited its publication, News Review. He was a founder member of the Medical Campaign Against Nuclear Weapons and the UK-USSR Medical Exchange Programme. Roy Ridgway was one of the executive staff who went to Oslo, in 1985, when the organization was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. SIMON HOUSE became aware of the importance of preconception nutrition on reading The Unborn Child. He worked closely with Roy Ridgway until the latter s death. Dorothea, Roy Ridgway s widow, asked Reverend House to update this book.
