CALL TO ACTION: MEETING TODAY'S REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH CHALLENGE A new vision in women's health care is emerging, challenging the age-old separation of mind and body in the healing process. This split not only undergirds the reproductive crisis of today but affects a wide range of other health-related concerns. Current reproductive technologies, which exclude the mind/body connection, are seriously affecting the health and well-being of both the mother and the unborn child. CURRENT ISSUES IN TODAY'S REPRODUCTIVE CHALLENGE The National Center for Health Statistics predicts 6.1 million women in the U.S. will struggle with issues of infertility. "Fertility can be restored in women by the use of behavioral therapy, thus avoiding recourse to expensive medicines and complex procedures," cited Scientist and Professor Sarah L. Berga (Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, Emory University, Atlanta, Georgia.) Berga reported on her latest research in an address to the 22nd Annual Conference of the European Society of Reproduction and Embryology, June 20, 2006. Stress "Harms Brain In The Womb," confirmed Professor Vivette Glover of Imperial College, London (1/26/07) who found high levels of cortisol in the amniotic fluid bathing the baby in the womb during situations of maternal stress. Her research demonstrated that the unborn child is an aware, reactive human being responsive to the mother's emotional states. Her work suggest maternal stress is a true risk factor in its own right and calls for interventions. The U.S. has one of the highest rates of elective caesareans (over 24 percent); a procedure that has been shown to delay the opportunity for early mother-newborn bonding, interaction, breastfeeding and the establishment of family bonds. More U.S. Women Dying In Childbirth-Death Rate Highest In Decades; Obesity and C-Sections May Be The Cause The Associated Press August 24, 2007 ATLANTA-U.S. women are dying from childbirth at the highest rate in decades, new government figures show. Though the risk of death is very small, experts believe increasing maternal obesity and a jump in Caesarean sections are to blame.

The Current Reproductive Technologies, Which Exclude the Mind/Body Connection Negatively Affects the Health and Well-Being of the Mother and the Unborn Child. Contrary to current medical practice, fertility is not determined by one's age or the quality of one's eggs alone. Often a woman's natural ability to conceive is sadly being "lost in the shuffle" of ageist-based statistics and dictum's, which unnaturally separate one's emotional life from physiological consequences. Birth is not only about making babies. Birth is also about making mothers strong, competent and capable women who trust in themselves and keep their inner strength. Read the complete Paper
