Last night I watched the British PBS TV series’ 2013 Holiday Special “Call The Midwife! 169; – publication pending) also points to Zero Separation at all births and is now being scientifically confirmed by Dr. Bergman’s studies and others.* *. Of all our advanced science and medical knowledge may very well be caused. By this unnecessary separation. And I would posit even further that we are looking at what is called iotrogenic disease.

Call the Doula!: September 2013

Tuesday, December 30, 2014. It Takes a Village.

Sunday, March 29, 2015. What my books are NOT about. My books are not. About myself. They are about the courageous men and women from across the planet who have fled war, torture, famine and genocide. They come here with hope. They dare to hope that they can once more live in peace. They dare to fall in love again, dare to make babies again and dream of providing a better life for their families. My books are not. Own power and wisdom from within in order to birth this particular child. Yes, I get to be ...
