The whole point of the placenta burying ceremony is that it is a strong way of “closure” to the time of immersion mothering right after a birth. It can be done on it’s own or in conjunction with some milestone, such as a blessing, first birthday, return of menstruation, etc. Though I thought 18 months was a long time to keep it in the freezer, I think I did it at just the right time for us.
I was asked to speak in church (sort of) on Christmas Day and some of the message I think is perfect for a New Year, so I am recycling it here. You Already Are What You Are Becoming Perhaps some of you have already set your New Year’s intentions. Even if you haven’t, that’s okay. …

Something I used to frequently say regarding childbirth was that I was born in the last days because Heavenly Father knew I couldn’t handle a natural childbirth and knew I needed epidurals. It was something I would always joke about, but also really believed. I might be mentally strong, spiritually strong, but physically strong? No way. That was not for me.

As I was finishing the journey I was …
More than a year ago I read a story in 2 Kings 4 that kind of blew my mind on many levels. Some of the Ah Ha’s were personal but there are also some great universals about healing and yes, about Kundalini Yoga. 🙂 I recommend reading the whole story and then reading the rest of my …

I have been thinking a lot lately about miracle births. Jesus Christ’s conception and birth are of course, the most famous and miraculous, but there are a whole lot of other miracle conceptions and births in the scriptures, and in every day lives. For example, a friend of mine has shared that her parents have …
A few weeks ago I had a visit from Joseph Smith and Abraham Lincoln. I was carried away in the spirit, or as I sometimes call it, the imagery state. I was also in a lot of pain (epic headache) and I realized that they had come to bless me. I was half delirious but …

I have been quiet on this blog because I have been working a new book about mediation and it has been keeping me busy. But Sheridan nudged me and said I hadn’t posted since October. Wow! I realized October was my birthday month and January is (one of) my re-birthday months. And rebirth has been …
A few months ago I was at an unlikely place where I picked up a copy of The Atlantic and read an article called “How Long Can You Wait To Have a Baby?” The author was feeling deep anxiety about the ability to have children later I life. And who doesn’t with all the dismal …
