Description
As she eagerly awaited the birth of her first child, Mallika Chopra, herself the daughter of well-known New Age guru Deepak Chopra, began to craft a unique gift that would express her profound loving commitment to the baby growing inside of her.
100 Promises to My Baby is that gift - one that reflects her deep awareness of the responsibilities of parenthood. Here, Chopra reveals the vows she made to help her child - and all children - grow up feeling cherished and secure. She also shares short essays reflections and poems that inspired her throughout her life - and that will inspire you to think about your own life, values, and beliefs, and what you would like to pass on to your children.
