We are a large community with a wealth of knowledge and experience. If you are thinking about conceiving, if you are pregnant or have just become a Mother, seek out the doulas, midwives, grandmothers, aunts, healers and wise women. The women who have lived through this process naturally, many times over, can guide you, accompany you, show you when to push your will forward, when to rest, how to repair and nourish ourselves. <\/p>\n\n
