This CD has been created with the intention of offering stressed Midwives a route to being relaxed and calm.
It accompanies the training day for midwives but is designed also to be a standalone supportive tool.
Listening to one track a day will help you to manage your workload and your approach and mood better than you do currently and in the process enable you to feel less burdened and happier.
