NEW YORK— February 20, 2018—Morgan James’s new release, Give Birth a Chance: How to Prepare for an Empowered VBAC by Ilia Blandina, empowers women to seek a natural birth, even after having had a cesarean section. Written by a professional midwife with decades of experience, this guidebook addresses the common concerns women have when considering a vaginal birth and helps them set up an effective birth plan that will lead to a safe, healthy delivery.

Many women are pressured into a cesarean section because their labor is taking too long by textbook standards, or because they’ve given birth via c-section before. While a c-section is sometimes necessary due to health risks, doctors often push women to this choice needlessly, when they could and would prefer to have a perfectly safe natural birth. Give Birth a Chance teaches women to trust their body and intuition when it comes to giving birth, and helps them overcome their fears of having a vaginal birth after cesarean (VBAC).

Having facilitated the births of over 5,000 babies in her midwifery career, and having given birth to four children of her own, Ilia Blandina knows firsthand the safety concerns every mother faces when it comes to delivery. Through her experience, Blandina has found that vaginal birth is typically the healthiest, most beneficial option for mothers and their babies, and that this route is possible far more often than many doctors let on. In Give Birth a Chance, she helps mothers overcome their emotional triggers from having had a c-section, offers pain management exercises, and teaches parents how to develop a birth plan that ensures they can reach their natural birth goal. Whether the reader has had a c-section before or is a first time mother, Give Birth a Chance: How to Prepare for an Empowered VBAC eases her natural birth worries and empowers her to trust her body’s instincts.

NEW YORK—February 13, 2018—Morgan James’ new release, Reinvent Your Personal Safety: 3 Keys to Successful Self-Protection for Women by Matt Tamas, provides women with a holistic guide to developing their own personal safety plan. With eighteen years of experience in the safety and defense field, Tamas shares his expertise with practical tips and exercises that equip women of all ages and skill levels to become advocates for their own safety.

In a day and age where violent crimes occur every twenty-six seconds, and nearly 2 million women are physically assaulted every year in the United States alone, it is vital for women everywhere to take ownership of their safety. Often women think that self-defense requires a certain level of athleticism or physical agility, and taking a class can feel intimidating. In Reinvent Your Personal Safety, expert Matt Tamas shifts the paradigm and offers a more universal outlook: that self-protection is a skill everyone is capable of, and that that skill begins with training the mind, not the body.

Packed with expert guidance, tactics, and strategies, Reinvent Your Personal Safety: 3 Keys to Successful Self-Protection for Women offers a complete, detailed outline for developing and implementing a personal safety plan. Tamas provides readers three detailed key principles to not only be prepared to react in the event of an attack, but to know how to prevent violent attacks from occurring in the first place. Avoiding a physical confrontation is always the best option when possible, and Reinvent Your Personal Safety teaches women cues to look for and prevention techniques to ultimately keep them out of dangerous situations in the first place, while also providing the techniques and knowledge they need to deal with a threat.

Reinvent Your Personal Safety: 3 Keys to Successful Self-Protection for Women is the book for every woman. It empowers those with no athletic or physical combat abilities to overcome their own mental blocks and feel confident in their ability to protect themselves.

If you would like more information about this topic, or to schedule an interview with Matt Tamas, please call Nickcole Watkins at 516.900.5674.
