following
is a list of videos that we reccommend.
Birth Day, Sage

fact, it's
shown at the
Boston Museum of Science as part of their birth exhibit.
Timeless Way

An excellent review of birth traditions throughout many centuries and
cultures,
and what things remain the same.
Footprints On Our Hearts

How
to cope after a miscarriage, stillbirth, or newborn death.
A necessary and thoughtful guide for parents dealing with loss, or for
those close to the parents.
Two
videos in particular which are especially useful for classes are:
Tried and True: A collection of Labor Techniques
Available
from Injoy Videos
A good video, with positive views
of women in active labor. It is a well-organized, practical guide
that illustrates techniques for coping in labor.
Celebrate Birth

This
video doesn't mention a "technique". The main focus is on the
woman and her abilities, which is really what is so important about birth.
