NLP and Perinatal Mental Health

P = programming; are we aware of this? Because in the infinite complexity of being human, we have the power to make choices. To choose what we listen to, to choose what to keep, to choose what to lay down and leave. And so to own our thoughts, own our emotions and own our doings.
