The archetype of “Mother” lies within every women. Within this divine feminine energy lies the power to create life and to give life to ideas, projects, products and humanitarian callings.
We know that what we focus on expands. When we share what we are focusing on with others the idea grows stronger in its birthing cycle.
I invite all of us to share our dreams, visions and actual happenings of what we are trying to birth into being. And then…let us hold that vision sacred for one another…sending it light and good will for it to flourish from conception into fruition, with grace and ease.
So ….what are you dreaming about and intending to birth?
Is it a baby…a child via other means…an idea…product …a project…a cause?
Please do share and let us know how we can support you!

After many years in advertising, television and satellite operations, I did a 180 and started my own business making high end, beautiful feathered headpieces for bridal and “cocktail” occasions. My inspiration was my 5 wonderful chickens, believe it or not! I wanted to incorporate them into my wedding so I made a headpiece out of their gorgeous feathers. People went crazy over it so little by little I made and sold more. My day job was awful but making the headpieces, which became a passion, helped me cope. When I lost another dear friend at too young an age I realized “life is short” is not just a saying. It was a call to action. So I took a leap of faith, quit my day job and launched The Feathered Head full time as an e-commerce website (www.TheFeatheredHead.com). It’s not easy starting a new business but at least my soul doesn’t have to take a shower at the end the day like it did before!

You GO ChickMama! Your courage and faith to “take the leap” gives us all the same reminder that we can let go and birth anything our heart truly desires.
It would be great for us all to bear witness to your beautiful creations. Consider posting some shots under the same “What are you Birthing” question on our facebook page! :http://www.facebook.com/CMomaCommunity
Also…there is a “Mamas to the 4-legged” Forum and Blog category”. I think we can all use some education about what it’s like to have chickens as your beloved pets and factory workers to boot! How amazing really that these creatures that you “mother” helped literally birth this new creative venture. Wow!

Profound loss can send most human beings into a tailspin, which is part of the grief process. The length of that process varies from person to person, but there comes a time to where it is just stuck energy and is impeding forward motion in an individual’s life. My mission is to let people know that there are non-drug, natural solutions for grief, sadness and anger as well as trauma-related PTSD responses. Those of us who have used what is generally called EFT process (I have used it successfully for over 20 years) continue to call upon the VA and other agencies to incorporate this effective healing work into their treatment programs. With so many troops returning from war, the VA is overwhelmed with caseloads of PTSD sufferers who need help NOW! EFT can be used in groups, individually and even over the phone, by trained practitioners. An hour of EFT will neutralize the emotional burden and associated depression that years of therapy can’t clear up. EFT processes don’t erase the memories, however the emotional connection is neutralized, allowing the ability to release the event from being the pivot point in one’s life. Anyone can learn it and kids LOVE use it daily, as they go through the ups and downs of growing up in today’s world. I am available for free presentations in the SD area for those who are working with trauma clients or just loved ones who have been stuck in an emotional hole for extended periods of time. It is healing for the 21st Century and everyone should learn this valuable and easy to use technique for the benefit of their families and communities. I urge you all to consider investigating this powerful healing work.

I agree with Chickmama – life is short and I’m listening to the thumping on my soul door to get out there and do what my heart is calling me to do – which is travel! I hope to ‘birth’ myself this year and blossom out of the self imposed restrictions I have put on myself and my life trying to fit in with how life is ‘supposed’ to be lived (job/house), rather than how I need to live for myself. I also hope to ‘birth’ some sort of online workshop or forum to help empower women (particularly childless women) to find their soul voice, inner strength and know that there IS LIFE without children and you can give of yourself in so many other ways that are just as fulfilling
Dr. Marcy
YES! That is the spirit…Rock on Sister! This on-line forum was birthed with the same intention you so beautifully stated…
