The prenatal pill should be taken before you become pregnant, not just when you find out that you are having a baby. It benefits the first ten weeks of pregnancy and nutrients are needed for the baby’s body to begin to be made. The prenatal pill is NOT enough to fulfill all the nutrients required to create a child and protect your own needs. Studies have shown that despite taking a prenatal vitamin, women were still low in Vitamin D. Low Vitamin D levels in early life is linked to schizophrenia, diabetes and skeletal disease. Nor is choline typically added to prenatal vitamins, and deficiency of this nutrient is associated with lifelong learning deficits.
This meditation is from the Kundalini heritage and was taught by Yogi Bhajan. It can be done daily during pregnancy, and music to follow along can be found online and on YouTube. The Kirtan Kriya will help to balance your mood and emotions. It will also help to regulate your menstrual cycle, which is vital when you are trying to become pregnant. You can also do it back to back with your partner to combine your energies. It improves the memory and brain function and balances the glandular system.
Sit with your legs crossed and spine straight to start. The SA-TA-NA-MA meditation helps to release haunting, limiting patterns of the subconscious mind and prepare a couple for pregnancy. As you chant, imagine energy flowing through the top of your head, or your crown center, and out your third eye, or the place mid-brow between your eyebrows, in an L shape. This helps to circulate your breath and the energy of the sound current.
The purpose of FERTILE is to help you clear historical density from your bloodline so that you can attract a crystalline soul. Assuming that children pick their parents, this type of soul has no or less karmic links to the planet and selects parents according to their light quotient and vibrational frequency. When children like this are born they will not have to spend the majority of their lives working through personal problems, familial issues, wounds or attachments which are typically created from past bloodlines or previous lifetimes. Essentially, these children are clear from the past because you have done the work to clear yourself. You can think of them as disconnected from cultural or societal belief systems that may hold them back in life. These children will be able to complete great missions or achievements to help this earth to thrive without the personal resistance or self-sabotage that the typical human faces as a result of their energetic and genetic makeup.
“The doctor of the future will give no medication, but will interest his patients in the care of the human frame, diet and in the cause and prevention of disease.” –Thomas Edison
For some new parents, picking a pediatrician is a daunting task. Your family needs a pediatrician who you can trust, who will listen, and will help support you through the transition into parenthood. It is important to be prepared and ready to ask the right questions in order to find a good match. The search for the right practitioner varies depending on where you live, the amount of time you have, whether you carry insurance, and your belief systems toward medicine.
When I went through the pediatrician search, I was completely shocked by the process, but I also lived in San Francisco where women sign up for preschool while they are still pregnant. True story! I knew there was competition for schools in San Francisco, but I had no idea there was also a lot of stress and very long waiting lists for doctors. It was so competitive that some offices have drawings for new patients, but that is another story. It was important for me to begin searching early and know what type of doctor I preferred.
There are some very unique places in the world which actively use the elements in ceremony creating a high vibration and connection to Spirit within the land. Bali and a few locations in India come to mind, as these cultures maintain active spiritual practices which help to activate the environments, living spaces and temples. The communities of these locations hold deep devotion to Source and place importance upon creating ritual utilizing the elements as a part of their daily practice or way of living. Ritual creates a palpable feeling of peace and expansion within the person and the surrounding area. In Bali, you can literally feel Spirit pulsating through the land because of the level of love that the Balinese have for their Hindu Gods. Their mediation practice, and devotion to keeping active alters, creates a palpable feeling of being alive within every cell.
Devotion to the Creator through active ritual, dance, singing or open expression is something that Western culture significantly lacks. There is weakness in our spirits and we are oozing out neurotic tendencies to control time, work, love and people. We spend most of our lives inside using light switches rather than starting a fire. We have lost our connection to the elements and do not honor their power. As a result, we are not even aware that they are our lifelines back to God. The Spirit world is here to assist us in our process of remembering who we are. Becoming cognizant of the elements within and without will help you to recreate this connection and pulsate as one with the universe.
Just three to five years ago I had no idea what meditation was. I knew I wanted to feel better – and I knew for sure I was ready to connect to a higher source – but I didn’t know how. Now I meditate over an hour a day, cannot wait to wake up before the sun to do this, and am constantly connected to Spirit. I went from zero to one hundred. I also went from being over-emotional, clingy and disorderly to having a higher self-esteem, healthier relationships and overall better life. Meditation changed me. Let me tell you how….
When I became interested in spirituality I knew I was ready to learn and grow, but I didn’t know where to start. A friend told me about a practice called Vipassana from India. I was ready to try anything at that point so I signed up for a 10 day “retreat” (ha!) in a secluded residence. We could not speak or look at anyone in the eyes for 10 freakin days! We sat in a room for 12 hours a day in complete silence. I naturally went a bit crazy and knew that this practice wasn’t for me. They recommended that we sit silently in the morning and the evening from that point onward, which felt stifling. I think it is hard for anyone to sit still this long and assume that thoughts won’t come, dont you? If I was going to meditate I wanted to feel energetic about it so I kept praying that a practice would find me that would match my desire……
