Humanity's Infertility
The kingdoms of the world are slowly depleting, species are disappearing. Does that include humans too?
Yes, whatever we think, we are a part of the animal kingdom AND you may well be asking yourself, why is nature behaving the way it is?
Let's begin by looking at Mother Earth, she houses minerals and waters within her shell. We humans are just smaller versions. Working with rhythms as nature intended, life is sustained.
The Lactational Amenorrhea Method (LAM) for postpartum contraception
I was so very fortunate enough to meet Prof. Miriam Labbok on a speaking tour I organised with the team from the Lactation Resource Centre for the Australian Breastfeeding Association in 2012.

If you did this, would you expect a different result?
Do you know when you don’t feel ok? Do you listen to your body? It speaks to you in every single moment, feeding back information to let you know when it’s happy, humming along or not feeling so great.
Sign posts are all over our body, if only we could observe ourselves, we would see when we’re ‘not quite right’.
Do you STOP when your body asks you to? Would you recover more quickly if you did? OR do you soldier on and realise that there is nothing else to do but run on empty, thinking you have to do it all.
