___Queen Mother Moore
What is birth as we know it? For far too many in Western and Modern societies it is pain. A pain so deep that women now schedule medicated, unnescesary C-Sections to birth their child. Who can blame them? Would you want to experience (what is often portrayed in the media and culture) the "worst" pain imaginable?
What about before these "modern" times? How did our ancestors give birth? How did they choose mates and prepare for conception and pregnancy? How did they view itimacy? It is by going to the core of the apple or the root of a tree that we discover its beginning, how in fact it came to be what it is today. We must tap into our own beginnings.

Wise Woman Herbal for the Childbearing Year
Wise Woman Herbal for the Childbearing Year, now in its 24th printing, has helped three generations of women conceive, carry and give birth naturallyChapters cover herbal fertility agents and herbs for birth control; safe, simple home remedies for the common complaints of pregnancy; alternative medicines for complications of labor and delivery; and effective remedies for the distresses of newborns and new moms. Complete instructions make using this book easy and fun. This book is an expanded version of a manual Ms. Weed developed for American midwives. It accompanied an intensive training, which she taught throughout the USA to groups of midwives interested in using herbal and natural remedies in their practices. It was so popular that it became clear that it needed to be made available to a larger audience.
Ms. Weed's personal interest in herbal medicine came about because of her own pregnancy and her desire to find drug-free ways of helping herself deal with problems. Ash Tree Publishing was founded in 1985 to reweave the healing cloak of the Ancients and to make the Wise Woman Tradition available to modern women. The information gathered in Ash Tree books offers women simple, easy, successful, and safe ways to regain and maintain health. |
