As a holistic birth doula I see my pregnant moms being recommended by their doctors to take Tylenol daily. “Just to be safe”.

They tell them not to listen to me because “you should never take medical advice from a doula”.

The medical system is broken. Wake up.

If you want to have a healthy pregnancy you need to find a HOLISTIC Doula , Naturopath, or Midwife that has training outside of the normal medical model to help you navigate the lies being told.

Research the statistics or even just look around and talk with friends about
How many miscarriages are happening
How many women cannot even get pregnant
How many C- sections are happening
How many children are austisitc or have other serious tissues.

These issues should not be accepted as just being normal.
Most can be easily prevented with Natural Health Care.

This is not just a “Trump thing”. The natural health community and “the conspiracy theorist” have been saying this for 20+ years.

It’s time to wake up and protect your families.

In a quiet lab in Vienna, a group of physicists ran an experiment in 2012 that should have been impossible. They fired two entangled photons — particles of light linked across space — into a carefully built quantum setup. One photon was measured immediately. The other was delayed using a long optical fiber. But when they compared the results, something strange happened: the outcome of the first photon’s measurement appeared to be influenced by the second, which hadn’t been measured yet. Somehow, the future was affecting the past.
This baffling phenomenon was later confirmed in several experiments around the world. It’s now known as the Delayed Choice Quantum Eraser — a mind-bending concept where the act of observing a particle can seemingly reach back in time to change what happened before the observation. To be clear: no one is sending messages into the past. But what we are seeing suggests time, at the quantum level, doesn’t behave like the linear arrow we experience in daily life.

In classical physics, cause always precedes effect. But in quantum mechanics, particles don’t seem to care. If a photon is given the “choice” to behave like a particle or a wave, its behavior isn’t fixed until it’s measured — and incredibly, the way we choose to measure it can retroactively determine how it acted before the measurement. This isn’t just theory anymore. It's been observed in peer-reviewed lab setups using ultra-sensitive detectors and state-of-the-art photon sources.

One version of the experiment split a photon into two entangled twins. One traveled to a detector where it was measured directly. The other passed through a system where scientists could either preserve or erase which-path information — after the first photon had already been detected. The eerie result: the earlier measurement lined up with the later choice, as if the particle somehow “knew” what its partner would encounter.

This shakes the foundation of causality. While no information can travel faster than light — meaning no violation of relativity — the implication is deeper: at the quantum level, reality isn’t determined until it’s observed, and sometimes, observation in the present seems to sculpt the past.

Some physicists think this hints at a universe that’s fundamentally interconnected across space and time. Others wonder whether time itself might be an emergent illusion — something that appears orderly only when observed at scale. Either way, the more we look into quantum mechanics, the more reality stops behaving like reality.

And if the past can be changed by the present… what else might be possible?

🍁 Hello Autumn — September 22 🍁

Today, Earth reaches a breathtaking moment of symmetry: the Autumnal Equinox. 🌍✨ For just one day, sunlight falls evenly across the globe — day and night stand in near-perfect balance. ☀️🌙

🔸 Northern Hemisphere: The air turns crisp, evenings arrive sooner, and trees dress themselves in golden reds and fiery oranges. It’s the official start of fall — cozy nights, warm drinks, and glowing sunsets ahead.

🔸 Southern Hemisphere: Spring awakens — days grow longer, buds burst into bloom, and fresh life stirs under brighter skies.

✨ The Equinox is more than an astronomical event — it’s a reminder of nature’s rhythm. Light and dark, warmth and chill, endings and beginnings — all in balance for one fleeting moment.

🌅 Tonight, stand outside at sunrise or sunset. The Sun rises due east and sets due west — a cosmic alignment you can witness with your own eyes.

Trauma Lives in the Body as Well as the Mind

Modern neuroscience and psychobiology reveal that traumatic memories are not confined to the brain alone. When a person experiences extreme stress, the body floods with stress hormones like cortisol and adrenaline. This “fight or flight” response changes heart rate, breathing, and immune activity. If the trauma is unresolved, these patterns can linger, becoming imprinted in muscle tension, connective tissue, and even organ systems. Over time, this can manifest as chronic pain, digestive issues, autoimmune conditions, or persistent fatigue, even when the mind isn’t consciously recalling the event.

Research on the brain–body connection explains why. Traumatic stress alters the autonomic nervous system and the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, keeping the body in a state of hyperarousal or numbness. This can lead to ongoing inflammation and disrupted communication between the brain and the gut, heart, or immune system. Neuroimaging studies show that trauma reshapes key brain regions like the amygdala, hippocampus, and prefrontal cortex, but the impact extends into the vagus nerve and peripheral nerves that regulate the organs. In other words, the body “remembers” what the conscious mind might try to forget.

This understanding helps explain symptoms seen in post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and complex trauma: unexplained aches, migraines, digestive troubles, or sudden anxiety triggered by smells or sounds. These aren’t imagined—they are biological echoes of real experiences. It also supports therapies that involve both mind and body. Approaches like somatic experiencing, yoga-based trauma therapy, EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing), and breathwork aim to calm the nervous system and release stored tension.

Healing requires more than talking about the past. Practices that combine gentle movement, mindful breathing, and body awareness can help the nervous system relearn safety. Nutrition, adequate sleep, and supportive relationships further guide the body back to balance. While memories cannot be erased, the way the body responds to them can change, allowing people to feel more grounded and resilient.

Understanding that trauma is a whole-body experience is key to lasting recovery. Caring for both mind and body helps turn painful imprints into pathways for healing and strength.
