Every once in a great while, you meet someone and you are simply delighted - in awe, yet also totally comfortable and friendly around them.  Your mind is challenged while your spirit is nourished, and you know that just spending time with this person is deeply healing and important to your soul.  

That's how I feel about Leonie Dawson.  She's an artist, a mama-goddess, an incredibly prolific writer and creator, and a talented entrepreneuress as well.  

I can't even recall how I came across her work online, which just goes to show, it must have been divine conspiring!  

Okay, okay....I must confess:  

Childbirth is one area of life that particularly lends itself to energy medicine, aromatherapy, and other non-invasive approaches to health. Notice I say health, instead of a negative term like disease (dis-ease) or dysfunction--because the natural state of the body is health. Since health is our natural state, it would logically follow that we should always begin a course of treatment by using the least invasive means of helping the body return to a state of health.

Commonly referred to as "complimentary" treatments in our country, things like homeopathy, aromatherapy, vibrational medicine and more are very useful and powerful tools in attaining a deeper and more holistic level of wellness.

Today I've got a guest!  Allow me to introduce Bethany Learn, the CEO and Founder of Fit2B.us - an online, family-friendly fitness studio that specializes in diastasis awareness.  A diastasis (say di-ass-teh-sees)  in other words, the proper healing of the "mummy tummy" that too many women suffer from after pregnancy.  There's nothing superficial or unrealistic here--Bethany's just passionate about integrating a healthy level of fitness into the lives of busy mamas, and about raising awareness about the harm--yes, harm!--that crunches can do to a post-baby belly!
