In the Likatier tribe, the pre-natal period of the child in the womb, birth and the postnatal situation as well as the circumstances, experiences and constitutions of the mother in these phases play a very special role. Not only because we are still closest to the original state of paradise as children in this time, but of course also because this is a very decisive interface in the development of man. It is well known that in these nine months of pregnancy the decisive imprints are made on the structures of the human consciousness. The relationship between mother and child is of incomparable importance for the child's later life and development. Here it is decided how much and in which way the child becomes neurotic and ill, or - in a positive sense - how healthy and capable of relationships, how open and loving the little person becomes. All later therapeutic measures ultimately return again and again to this early period and are of course the simpler and more effective the closer they can come to this period.

In the Likatier tribe, for example, therapeutic support of mothers during pregnancy has taken place for many years through weekly group-therapeutic pregnancy meetings, which have the purpose of improving the bond and relationship with the child and giving the child better starting conditions through the supportive management of the mother's needs and conflicts during this time. These efforts are certainly highly effective for the development and health of the child, as they start exactly where the decisive decisions for the child are made.
