Guest guest Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 Love, Gabby. :0) http://stemcellforautism.blogspot.com/ " I know of nobody who is purely Autistic or purely neurotypical. Even God had some Autistic moments, which is why the planets all spin. " ~ Jerry Newport WHAT IS PEGGY O'MARA SAYING ABOUT HMN? " I really am a big supporter of the Holistic Moms Network. Even with all the wonderful articles we publish at Mothering, parents still need community. It isn't easy to change and do things differently without a supportive community. That's why Holistic Moms Network is essential to natural parents and to the growth of natural parenting in this country. " Peggy O'Mara Editor/Publisher Mothering Magazine Holistic parenting is a challenge. Many of the principles and ideals of natural living are under assault in today's culture. Finding support is essential for any parent to forge a holistic lifestyle, as Peggy O'Mara - a visionary and pioneer in the natural parenting movement - has pointed out. What impact has the Holistic Moms Network had on you? " Because of HMN, I am better able to parent my precious daughter in a way that is mindful and compassionate. " - Kim " HMN has brought insight, information and courage in my life. " - na " Because of HMN, our family has made so many changes to reduce our exposure to toxins and keep ourselves healthy. " - Tricia Through the Holistic Moms Network, members have discovered natural remedies for their child's asthma and fever, found the courage to have a vaginal birth after cesarean (VBAC), became educated about vaccination choice, and have tried recipes for making their own non-toxic cleaners. HMN is making a difference. We are building the natural parenting movement that Peggy O'Mara described, helping thousands of families make positive, lasting changes in their lives. If you appreciate HMN and believe that your life is better because of it, please consider donating $20 to HMN today. In 2008, HMN spoke out about a number of important issues affecting holistic parents, and garnered unprecedented coverage in the national media. We are proud to be a powerful voice for natural parenting, and we need a strong HMN to confront the growing challenges facing holistic parents today: Continued assaults on parental choice in vaccination decisions coupled with an increasing number of compulsory shots An erosion of support for natural childbirth options like home births, midwife-assisted births, and VBACs An out-of-control consumer culture which targets our children through relentless advertising Toxic chemicals in our air, water, and food that challenge us to make safe choices for our families A commercial agricultural system that puts profits before health A culture that believes positive parenting leads to selfish, indulgent children We are helping to change the world, one informed and empowered family at a time. Through our local Chapters, online forums, newsletters, and website, HMN members get the resources they need to create healthy, balanced lives for their children. We want to continue to make a difference by informing and empowering even more families in 2009. In the year ahead, the Holistic Moms Network will work to increase our numbers by opening new Chapters in states without HMN representation. And, with your support, we will become a formidable political constituency to be reckoned with, to take on the many challenges facing holistic parents today.. Give the gift of support, help others learn about natural living and enable HMN to be a powerful voice for holistic parenting in this country. We know times are tough for everyone right now. That's why no donation is too small.
