RE: Digest Number 167

[Guest guest]

HI Sonya and all;

Yes, I am happy to be back home; and got clear while hiking in the

clear prana how important my own rest and ease is again ... I'll focus

less on travel and more on local trainings, still planning Boulder if

we get good attendence.

 

Jeanne may be very interested in some helichrysum oil, which is not

only best for pain (Young Living brand way outshines any others here,

according to Vicki Opfer's repeated experience) without getting pain

meds into the milk, but best for minimizing/healing scar tissue. Nows

the time, while the skin is freshly involved in healing issues. Note

it is also a good antimicrobial. THe cheaper way to go is lavender

oil, but it isn't so powerful on well, any of the fronts.

 

(I usually just take their customer order when they are already

overworked postpartum, and place it for them/sometimes on my credit

card for payback, usually on theirs just like any other business

person would do, giveing them a copy of the order after shipping has

been figured in.)

 

Lots of times the moms need a wake up call like that about taking it

easy. SHe is getting the massages now? SInce how many days

postpartum? Knowledge needs so often to go along with the care, as

part of the care - there is so much re-education to do in our field! I

see it often also with mastitis, main cause being overwork/overdoing,

according to the midwifery and Dr. Lad books.

 

PS, Sonya, if you remem ber when you hit reply, delete any extra text

below, ok? I culled it on this one. A little text reminder of

response issue is fine.

Love,

Martha
