Our site is all about learning to trust your mothering instincts. Being a natural mom doesn't mean being perfect. It means being confident that you have everything you need to raise your child. We believe that you are the expert of your baby. Let us help you get in touch with the wisdom you already possess.
Our shows will cover many of the aspects of instinctive parenting including: alternative comfort measures for pregnancy, natural birthing, breastfeeding- beyond the basics, alternative medicines for childhood illness, instinctive baby care, positive discipline, home schooling and much more!
A well informed Mother who learns how to choose what will work for her own family and leave the rest behind is a happy Mom...We invite you to join us as we celebrate natural Motherhood.

My guest this week is Dr. Richard Selznick of Shut Down Learner.
He is a psychologist, nationally certified school psychologist and author of The Shut-Down Learner: Helping Your Academically Discouraged Child.
Our topic today is the “high spatial learner”, children who thrive with visual-spatial learning (the so called “Lego kid”) but who may struggle with learning in a traditional classroom setting.
Within the first few pages of the book, I recognized my 8 year old son, who can build anything and pick out songs by ear on the piano, but who has difficulty reading and following instructions. If you have a child with this learning style, the book will help you appreciate your child’s unique strengths and point you to resources to assist them so they don’t become discouraged.
