The absence of a child or loss of a pregnancy is a void and, frequently, a profound loss experienced as a failure, a lack, a shame, something that needs to be fixed or hidden, even when it is a choice. For the most part, there is no frame, no structure, no rituals, no celebration, no acknowledgment, often even no words. It has no name, no category. The pain, loneliness and awkwardness can be unimaginable until it happens to you.What if "not children" isn't really that unusual? What if the vast majority of women have had, are having, or will have some experience of what we call missed motherhood in their lifetime, whether or not they ever have children?Based on available statistics, it appear...
Wholesome food has healing properties, and when we purify our diet, a number of healing reactions may begin to arise from unresolved past experiences and strong emotions. These emotions get stored in our organs and connective tissue as emotional scar tissue, creating energy blockages that lead to pain.

Wising Up is for everybody: the middle-aged, aging boomer, and anyone interested in Wising Up and living more consciously. After over forty years of combined experience in teaching and creating and facilitating workshops, Milton realized that our culture's focus is primarily on recreation and prolonging life, rather than the quality of that life.

These concepts can recreate the promise of hopefulness you may have forgotten: Self-awareness Awareness of attitudes and behaviors that limit and contribute to a sense that somehow lif...
First you marry a man who does not want children. He cheats and you divorce him. Then you marry the love of your life and find out he does not want to have children with you either. The three he has are more than enough. Although you always wanted to be a mother, you decide he is worth the sacrifice, expecting to have a long happy life together. But that's not what happens. This is the story of how a woman becomes childless by marriage and how it affects every aspect of her life. This is the book of my heart, the one I had to write. Ever since I realized I was not going to have children, I have felt recurring grief and an emptiness in my heart. I am different from most women, but I have found that I am not alone. There are many of us childless women, and I think it's important to share our stories about what it's like when you don't have children in a world where most girls grow up to become mothers. I hope this book offers comfort to those who are childless and understanding to those who are not. If it makes you smile here and there, even better.
