I was very fortunate recently to attend a conference with Deepak Chopra in Barcelona. He reminded me so much of our fertility, pregnancy and birth stories as well as our relationship with parenting, breastfeeding and all else that comes with being a woman in a modern world.

We experience ourselves as solid physical beings. That is how we perceive the world. When we look at a chair our brains see a solid entity…something permanent.

However this is, in fact, false and occurs only because our brains and nervous systems are not capable of registering what is actually taking place.

In reality, everything is energy and information flashing in and out of existence at speeds greater than light. Although we experience life as a continuity (the chair I am sitting is always in this spot), it is in fact a discontinuity flashing on and off.

What happens for us is that the memory of the chair (your fertility, pregnancy, baby and partner etc.) lingers while in the ‘off’ phase so we perceive it as always being there in the same way.

Chopra compared this to a movie which appears to be a continuous stream of visual and audio information but is in fact a series of still frames..24 per second… which is faster than the brain’s ability to process. So we see a continuous film instead of the on/off that is really happening.

Our expectations, memories and desires acutally shape what is going to happen next….what is going to come into existence.

So with regard to fertility, for example, your expectation will have an impact on what will happen for you. The same applies to breastfeeding, birth and parenting.

Looking back on your history or experience only perpetuates the illusion of continuity and brings more of what you have had in the past.

You are the creator of your experience and this moment is your moment of power.

So look forward to what you want in your fertility.  Visualise a pain-free, empowering birth.  See yourself and your baby absolutely thriving in breastfeeding. Imagine amazing support surrounding you as you relax into financial freedom.

And let the next flash ‘on’ come from the new life story you are telling yourself…the one in which you are a successful, amazing, empowered, supported, nourished mother who is fully in tune with your wonderful body, deep wisdom and infinite intelligence. 

In joy,

I had the great pleasure of interviewing Debra Pascal-Bonaro, internationally renowned childbirth expert. Debra has recently completed her first film which is a documentary called Orgasmic Birth following the stories of 11 women.

Debra explained that because it is now seen as a medical event, we have forgotten that birth is actually part of a woman’s sexual life.

If you were to consider birth in this manner what would you be asking for?

According to Debra, the best kept secret of birth is that 20% of women who are not medicated report having orgasm during birth.

So what are you asking for and expecting? If you were to open up to the idea that birth is a sensual experience what would be different about your current birth plan?

Are you hoping to survive birth or would you love your birth to be am empowering, sensual experience connecting you to your deep wisdom and a pleasure for you, your partner and your baby?

You can take the first step towards an orgasmic birth…..by daring to dream. Write out what you would love and play with the idea that a sensual birth really is a possibility for you and your baby.

Christiane Northrup, M.D. who wrote Women’s Bodies, Women’s Wisdom penned the letter below and I was inspired to share it with you. It will be of particular interest to US citizens….

 Greetings,

Recently, I told you about the FDA’s attempt to prevent compounding pharmacies from using estriol (a bioidentical form of estrogen), an action that was instigated by Wyeth Labs. I urge you to join the ground swell of women and men, doctors and lay persons, who are notifying their congressional representative that this is unacceptable. When it comes to hormone replacement, women deserve access to all the options, especially bioidentical hormones (BHRT) which are safe, highly effective, and natural to a women’s body.I encourage you to let your congressional representative know that you want to preserve your right to choose BHRT by following the link below in the message from Citizens for Health. Together we can make a difference.

Sincerely,Christiane Northrup, M.D.

We can all visualise women having the very best of natural, medical and complementary supports and information in all stages of fertility.

Part 2 of our Blog Talk Radio show explored the topic of immunising our babies.

On the show I referred to an article I had read from Dr.Mercola about a case in which the US government conceded that childhood vaccines contributed to autism. Click here to read more.

After the show I discovered an interesting quote from Robert Kennedy Jr:

“Mercury is a know brain poison, and autism rates began rising dramatically in children who were administered the new vaccine regimens. 

A decade ago the American Academy of Pediatrics estimated the Autism rate among American children to be 1 in 2,500. Today, the CDC places this rate to be 1 in 166 or 1 in 80 boys. Additionally, 1 in 6 children are diagnosed with related neurological disorders”.

It can be very challenging for parents to make the best decision particularly when  a particular course of action is encouraged or even legally required (as in many countries).

In this kind of situation we can forget that we are powerful creators.

The real issue here is whether you as parent can allow yourself to tap into your own wisdom and harness your capacity to consciously create. 

While most of us have not been taught to listen to our inner guidance or create deliberately the world we want to live in, these are teachable skills you can learn and develop through coaching for example.

 You can enjoy crystal clarity about what is right for you and your baby…. empowering you to move forward with confidence in your chosen direction and create what you want to experience in family life and parenting regardless of how complicated or controversial the issue.

Part 1 of our show today was prompted by a question about breastfeeding with hepatitis C and how to prevent bleeding nipples.

Maire reminded us that milk is made from blood and lymph and shared again the Conscious Breastfeeding approach to preventing sore nipples. Tracy addressed this from the nutritional perspective.

My input was around harnessing the power of the law of attraction and the power of your mind to support mother and baby in this process.

As a result of pelvic pain when walking (which began shortly after I became pregnant), I decided to seek the advice of a physiotherapist.

One of her recommendations was to take smaller steps and walk using my whole body.

So now I am walking again without pain. My pace is slower at the moment as I retrain my brain, develop new neural pathways around walking and allow more muscles to support me.

During this process, it came to me that I need to take baby steps in all areas of my life now - not just when walking.

So I took this message from my body and started taking baby steps in other areas too. I noticed that as I do this, it seems that I am summoning forth support from other avenues (other muscles) that I didn’t even consider before.

 And as I trust more that baby steps are guidance from my deep wisdom, I relax and grow in confidence thereby attracting more experiences that illicit these feelings.

Perhaps you have pain or discomfort in your precious body.

 What might it be telling you? And how can you take on board this amazing guidance today so that you can attract more of what you want in fertility, pregnancy, birth and beyond with your baby?

In joy,

Deirdre Morris
