Birth is a Holy Experience | Maha Al Mus...

Diana Forsell Tayan
About this episode

BUCKLE UP for a powerful conversation with one of the wisest women I’ve had the pleasure of speaking to.

Maha Al Musa is a Wise Birth Oracle, an award-winning international birth mentor, author and speaker as well as the founder and creator of EmbodyBirth™ School and BellydanceBirth.

Maha gave birth to her 3rd child at home, a full water lotus birth when she was 46 years of age and has been featured in several worldwide media outlets for her strong stance on natural term breastfeeding, an experience she shares here.

If you want to feel not only fearless, but excited to give birth, I highly recommend this episode for you!
