Abstract
Bonding is more than a lifelong process. It is a process that begins long before conception. In a broader context, this process begins with the dawn of the cosmos itself. Bonding is the linking process that bridges the prenatal and postnatal stages and prepares the child to connect securely and meaningfully with the world and life on earth. This article highlights aspects of bonding in the pre-conception and conception periods, as well as in pregnancy and birth, so that connections can be made to pre-, gestational, then peri-, and postnatal growth. A list of bonding support issues accompanies the consideration of parent and child development within the psychocultural, spatial, and temporal environments so that taking responsibility for personal health and growth at different stages becomes possible. In summary, bonding is about strengthening the life-enhancing polarity over the life-diminishing polarity.
