Dr. Maegan Davis is dedicated to helping women of all ages balance their hormones naturally so that they feel like themselves again.
“All too often we, as women, can lose touch with our bodies and ourselves. And all too often there are no answers out there to bring us back to the person we used to be. There is no greater pleasure than the enjoyment of life. Being out of balance affects every aspect of our life – our family, our career,our personal goals and dreams. My wish is to help you reach balance. You may need to make lifestyle changes. I will supply natural whole food supplements, herbs and/or bioidentical hormones to give your body the nutrients necessary to heal with one-on-one support to cheer you on. You have an inborn right to be healthy. I am here to help you regain it.” ~ Dr. Maegan Davis
Peppermint.com's Mission Statemtent: "Peppermint.com is dedicated to the nearly-lost art of wearing your baby. We like to call it joyful in-arms parenting. In-arms because you can shed the strollers and buckets and bassinets and bouncers. Joyful because this closeness comes with so many benefits beyond making sandwiches with both hands. We start slinging our babies so that we can get things done. We continue slinging them because they are safer close to our bodies; they cry less when they can hear our hearts beat; they are more alert when they are face to face with the world. You will soon have a child who will be calmed by the sight of your sling, knowing that it will all soon be OK."
www.unassistedchildbirth.com This site is run by a woman named Laura Shanley. She has 4 children all of whom were born at home with no help/interference from doctors or midwives. It's a wonderful site to visit and be empowered by the stories of women who have given birth, sometimes pain-free, with their own strength, even if it is not how you want to give birth.
By Laura Shanley: "I Believe..... That birth is inherently safe. The same loving, intelligent consciousness (All That Is, Goddess, God, Nature) that knows how to grow an egg and a sperm into a human being, knows how to get it out. Our job is simply to relax and trust. Birth is not a function of the conscious mind any more than digestion is.
I Believe..... That the problems women sometimes encounter in birth can be traced to three main causes: Poverty - lack of food and poor living conditions Outside interference - doctors and sometimes midwives poking, prodding, testing, drugging, cutting, etc. Inside interference - primarily fear which triggers the fight/flight response and shuts down labor, but also shame and guilt When these factors are eliminated, most women can give birth easily, either alone or with friends and family.
I Believe..... That our bodies and our babies are responsive to our thoughts. The best way to ensure a good pregnancy and birth is to think positively, face and overcome our fears, and believe in our own abilities."
www.tcoyf.com This site is for those women who are looking for an alternative to traditional birth control and pregnancy achievement methods. Based on the book, Taking Charge of Your Fertility, by Toni Weschler, the website is full of information regarding fertility and birth control, but I also highly recommend the book for those who want even more information.
"A few words from Toni Weschler, MPH 'Welcome to all who are interested in learning more about the Fertility Awareness Method as a means of natural pregnancy achievement and avoidance as well as basic gynecological health. I hope you will find this site to be one of the most practical women's health communities on the web. I encourage you to explore all the pull-down menus above and the links below, and especially the numerous topics discussed in our incredibly active and dynamic message boards.' "
