“When pregnant, the cells of the baby migrate into the mother's bloodstream and then circle back into the baby, it’s called “fetal-maternal microchimerism”.
For 41 weeks, the cells circulate and merge backwards and forwards, and after the baby is born, many of these cells stay in the mother’s body, leaving a permanent imprint in the mothers tissues, bones, brain, and skin, and often stay there for decades. Every single child a mother has afterwards will leave a similar imprint on her body, too.
Even if a pregnancy doesn't go to full term or if you have an abortion, these cells still migrate into your bloodstream.
Research has shown that if a mother's heart is injured, fetal cells will rush to the site of the injury and change into different types of cells that specialize in mending the heart.
The baby helps repair the mother, while the mother builds the baby.
How cool is that?
This is often why certain illnesses vanish while pregnant.
It’s incredible how mothers bodies protect the baby at all costs, and the baby protects & rebuilds the mother back - so that the baby can develop safely and survive.
Think about crazy cravings for a moment. What was the mother deficient in that the baby made them crave?
Studies have also shown cells from a fetus in a mothers brain 18 years after she gave birth. How amazing is that?”
If you’re a mom you know how you can intuitively feel your child even when they are not there….Well, now there is scientific proof that moms carry them for years and years even after they have given birth to them.
I find this to be so very beautiful.

Words are spells, that's why to write them is called "spelling". The power of word choice is infinite. I am experimenting with a health spell: "I am healthy and have endless energy." A bit of housekeeping is to be curious about what spells we might be telling ourself and others daily. How might we be limiting or expanding ourself?

Do you have a mantra you use regularly? You might think not, but chances are there are a string of words you're in the habit of repeating that harnesses your attention in a specific and focused way. And we know wherever our attention goes, matching manifestations follow. Here are a few 'unintentiona...

"Take time out, to play, to laugh, to have fun. It's imperative. It's not an indulgence. It is a necessity. Remember, you are sharing your energy with other people. They deserve to have the best of you." Anita Moorjani

There are plenty of ways to support your immune system - healthy diet, plenty of sleep and rest, regular exercise, ensuring you get enough immune supporting vitamins and minerals, good gut health, lowering stress. And the practice of yoga has long been known for its benefit to our health - boosting the immune system, supporting the nervous system, connecting with your body, keeping that flow going. Why not add a little easy movement in to your daily or weekly rhythm. Even a little each day is much better than none.

A regular yoga practice incorporating meditation can help support and strengthen the immune system.

We all know dogs innately understand the secret to a happy life -just love EVERYTHING you do. Exercise, food, sunshine, your people, stretching, the beach, sleep and lots of it, etc.

What I'm noticing with my dog, is that EVERY time she goes from one action to another (gets off the couch, greets me, gets ready for a walk, gets ready to be presented with dinner, etc) she will do a 'downward dog' yoga stretch, which stretches her back legs, extends her back from her tail bone to her head, opens out her shoulders and stretches her front legs as she leans backwards. She knows that unless she reminds her body of the full ability of its movement, she will lose that ability. Motion is lotion. So, reminder to self: Stretch out that body. Tightness can lead to stiffness. Openness allows flow and health.

Off to do some stretching.

Your body tells the truth.

And not surprisingly, a client's body will show where there are restrictions and holding and a record of not honouring oneself. When we don't do or say or express in some way what is true to ourself, the body knows it and feels it. In a cranio session, the body reveals the times it has had to say: 'ah, you don't want to do what it authentic to you? So what do I do with this feeling? I have to hold on to that somewhere until you're ready to find a way to express it.' Held feelings can lead to dis-ease.

In a cranio session the body can flick out these feelings or unwind and release, resulting in the client just feeling better in themselves in a profound way. This can reduce pain, inflammation, increase well-being, reduce stress and in turn help the body heal itself.

Expressing authentically is important for well-being. Expressing ourselves can mean needing to say or do what we feel needs to be said or done or could mean we express it through journalling, being creative, being present with feelings, moving our body or using these feelings to do good for others. How to authentically express is for you and your body to decide upon as a team.
