Postpartum Depression

By Elizabeth Pantley

 

QUESTION: I know that it's normal to have the " baby blues " right

after you have a baby, but my son is six weeks old. I thought everything

would be wonderful by now and I would be so in love with my baby.I thought

mothering would come easily. It's not that way at all! Why am I such a

terrible mother?

 

Learn about it - You're not a terrible mother! You are a mother who is

suffering from a condition known as postpartum depression, a condition that

is treatable. While as many as 80% of mothers experience a temporary and

mild condition referred to as the baby blues, up to 15% of women have the

more severe reaction you're experiencing.

Sun and Windburn Cures

excerpt from Travelers Joy

by Juliette de Bairacli Levy

 

The treatments for both these traveling discomforts are similar: that is,

soothing damaged skin surface and curing any damaged internal tissues.

Sunburn is more harmful than windburn and severe burning can even cause skin

cancer.

 

During sunbathing always protect the skin with a light application of oil,

preferably herbal oil. Coconut oil thinned with vinegar or raw cucumber

juice makes one of the best suntanning lotions.

Stories of my Ancestors

Christmas Tree

by Waynonaha TwoWorlds

 

The days of the calendar tick off fast just before Christmas there never is

enough time to do all the things I planned to do for the family. Between

work and being a full time parent I find the hours are never enough at the

end of the day. I some how managed to sew and bake through all of this for

many years. First there is the cleaning of the house, a yearly ritual. Then

we mix all of the batters for the cookies and start the Christmas cookie

baking. This can take up to two weeks to do because of the fancy Norwegian

cookies that need to be pressed and done in special tins and irons.

Herbal Adventures

On Horseback in Provence

by Susun Weed

 

It's the first day of my week-long horseback trip in Provence, the South of

France. Beneath my feet (and my horse's hooves) aromatic and beautiful

plants that I know as cultivated, sometimes pot-bound, specimens are

growing wild: grey bitter wormwood (Artemisia absinthium), heavy-headed

fennel (Foeniculum vulgare), ground-hugging thyme (Thymus vulgaris), spicy

lavender (Lavendula dentata), and heart-warming rosemary (Rosmarinus off.).

Each step we take releases sharp, heady fragrances.

Therapeutic Massage and Diabetes

by Mary Kathleen Rose

 

As noted [in part one of this article], changes in blood glucose levels can

and do occur when people with diabetes receive massage. These changes may

happen, regardless of massage. But because of the relaxing nature of

massage, and the somewhat altered state of awareness that can occur, a drop

in blood sugar can be difficult to notice. Some diabetics can tell when

their sugar level is dropping.

Soul Retrieval

by Dawn Paul

 

As a Shamanic healer of the Inca tradition, a significant part of my work

involves journeying into the Lower World in order to bring back to my

clients their lost soul parts – a healing method called Soul

Retrieval. Soul loss sounds terrifying, but it is extremely common and all

of us have suffered soul loss in some form or another, either in this or a

former lifetime.

Grandmother

Gaia

On the Wings of a Hawk

by JoAnne Dodgson

 

Kyla found her way to the dirt path that encircled the meadow at the edge

of the woods. She looked to her left and looked to her right, unsure which

way to go. As she stopped to catch her breath and ponder her decision, she

noticed a shadow moving swiftly across the tall swaying grass. She looked

up toward the sky to see who it belonged to.

 

" Hello, " Kyla brightly called out to the hawk, delighted by the

sight of the magnificent bird.

Learning Herbs Interview 1.8

Susun Weed & John Gallagher

 

Susun: As far as I am concerned learning herbal medicine is about being

intimate with the plant and you start with one. When you learn all the

variables with that one, then you can apply it to anything else....
