I’m very excited to share with you that Nurturing Your Baby Spiritually During Pregnancy is a new course by the Wilmette Institute starting on 5 February 2018! Each week of the course you will have materials inspired by the Baha’i Writings to study, an activity to deepen your understanding, and a forum to discuss your learning with other participants. I realize that many of you reading this will already have had babies, but if you know someone who is newly pregnant or planning a family soon, it would be much appreciated if you can share this resource with them!
The course invites participants to nurture the spiritual well-being of a baby during pregnancy and in the parents as they experience this significant change. The content can also be useful for a couple who is planning to become pregnant. Topics include the role and preparation of mothers, fathers, and other family members for the changes ahead; the use of prayer and spiritual scripture throughout the experience; the marriage and family unit as the secure foundation for the well-being of the child; and how to build a spiritual and emotional support network for new parents.
Faculty: Swathi Baskaran and Chelsea Lee Smith
Dates: February 5 – March 18, 2018
