We live in a culture that severely underestimates the healing power of eating healthy with wholesome foods, proper diet, and exercise.  I know that we would all love to take a pill or a shot to cure us of whatever ails us, me too! However, the reality is that not every malaise is curable in this way.  I once found myself in the hospital with the best medical care in the world but dying of Hasimoto’s Thyroiditis with a chronic bowel obstruction. After years of drugs, hospitals and  surgical treatment and a particularly bad period where I was comatose for weeks, the best that the good doctors and nurses could do was just barely keep me alive. I was very grateful for this but it wasn’t until I took charge of my health and began focusing on proper diet, exercise and spiritual alignment that I was able to thrive. Did I have to leave the mainstream of medical thought to begin my recovery?

Absolutely! Was it a scary process fraught with uncertainty and occasional disappointment?  Yes.  The good news was that I wasn’t alone.  I have met and now have counseled with thousands of people that are on a similar journey.  Everyone’s journey is unique. Let the trained and experienced nationalists and herbologists at LivingMom Birth assist you on your journey during your pregnancy. Educating yourself will be one of the best things you can do to stay focused. A good goal for me was trying to read a book a week. Be prayerful as you decide what books to read. Realize that not everything you read is for you but the more you learn the sooner you will be able to find what things will work for you.
