Whole Woman Yoga^® Book Bundle

Whole Woman Yoga Book Bundle

Yoga was designed by men for male bodies.

As beneficial as Yoga is, it has never dealt with the unique features of the female body.

If you love Yoga but find it to be uncomfortable or seems to exacerbate your prolapse, then you might be interested in Whole Woman Yoga^®, a Yoga by and for women.

To save you money, you can get the two Whole Woman Yoga^® DVDs along with my book, Saving the Whole Woman and my exercise baton we have turned from rock maple in Maine which I use in most of my exercise programs.

Be sure to visit the Whole Woman Store for all our products.

As a former gynecologic surgeon who came to see the error his ways, I passionately read Saving the Whole Woman. Christine's work is medically accurate and will bring hope to millions of women suffering from pelvic organ prolapse and who want to avoid surgery.

I hope mothers will share this work with their daughters to help them avoid the kind of childbirth experience that sets them up for problems later in life.

This updated version of Saving the Whole Woman is a breath of fresh air for thousands of women who have been diagnosed with uterine, bladder, or rectal prolapse. In truth, every woman should know the information in this book to help preserve her innate pelvic power.

Christine Kent on Pelvic Organ Prolapse

The pelvic organ support system is complex and beautiful. Most importantly, it will serve you for a lifetime.

There is nothing that can be done to it surgically to make it better. Surgery can only make it worse.

Managing prolapse is a journey of discovery and exploration. No one else can do this work for you.

All you need is knowledge of your natural female anatomy and the mindfulness to be attentive to your body as you sit, stand, walk, lift and carry.

Your body will tell you when you are doing things right because your symptoms will improve. When you are doing things wrong, your symptoms will worsen.

Your body is the perfect biofeedback mechanism and the only one you will ever need.

This fire breathing is helping me. I want to sing it from the treetops. Thank you Christine!

I have been to many doctors. None of them could figure out the pain, which was low abdominal, low back pain after bowel movements. I found this web site and the posture information while researching, and within a few days of making posture corrections, the pain is mostly gone, AND my rectocele and cystocele have both gone from stage 2 to stage 1.

For me, I will always be grateful for Christine, her materials, her inspiration and instruction, and for all of you who travel a similar path. By the way, the exercises are still instrumental in my healing program. I didn't do them for a couple of days and I noticed! -

An Effective Alternative to Dangerous Surgery for Pelvic Organ Prolapse and Urinary Incontinence

If you have been diagnosed with pelvic organ prolapse (rectocele, cystocele or uterine prolapse) and are uncomfortable with the idea of surgery (which you should be), you have come to the right place.

Since the publication of my book, Saving the Whole Woman, in 2003, thousands of women from around the world have successfully avoided dangerous and ineffective surgery for this most common of women's health issues: pelvic organ prolapse.

You Are Not Alone

Few women even know the conditions exist until they themselves become symptomatic. Fifty to eighty percent of all women will deal with prolapse at some point in their lives. Once considered an “old ladies” problem, it is now epidemic in the postpartum population and we have helped girls as young as sixteen.

What I discovered, and what makes Whole Woman revolutionary is that pelvic organ prolapse is a postural problem. The true pelvic organ support system is a postural system. They are one and the same.

Prolapse can be very successfully managed for a lifetime with the postural methods I have developed. You've probably been told to do Kegel exercises. You will discover on this site that Kegels not only don't work, they can actually make your condition worse.

Twenty years of research and the feedback from thousands of women world-wide have shown my methods to be safe and effective.

If you are post-hysterectomy, your situation is more complex. Many of our post-hysterectomy sisters have gotten significant benefit from my methods, enough to justify saying “no” to further surgeries, which are likely to create additional problems leading to still more surgery over time.

The Next Three Things To Do

First and foremost, get educated. Sadly, the medical system does not have your best interests at heart. Gynecologists and urogynecologists are surgeons. That is how they are trained, that is what they do, and more importantly, that is how they make their living. The materials in the Whole Woman Store are the most complete and anatomically accurate information on prolapse available in the world today.
Second, I strongly recommend you join the Whole Woman Forum. This free resource is a wealth of information, answers and support. We have very knowledgeable and supportive moderators from around the world who will help you, answer your questions and be a shoulder to cry on if you need it. The forum is the heart of the Whole Woman community. Do take advantage of it.

Finally, learn the Whole Woman posture that is outlined in my materials. It is simple and natural. It may feel a little strange at first but soon you will come to see how effective it is in improving your symptoms. Some exercise to help restrengthen muscles that have gotten lazy over the years will help, but the posture is the key. Learn it. Start now and be mindful of it whatever you are doing every day. Like thousands of other women around the world, you will begin to see results soon.

The Whole Woman Web Site

On this site you will find lots of helpful information.

If you want specific information for rectocele, cystocele and uterine prolapse, you'll see links for these conditions to the left.

The hysterectomy page will be useful to those for whom hysterectomy has been recommended and women who are post-hysterectomy.

At the Whole Woman Store, you'll find where to purchase my book, my six DVDs, as well as phone and personal consultations. Please be sure to take a look, as we support this site primarily through our product sales.

We currently have four certified Whole Woman practitioners in addition to myself. Two on the East Coast of the US, one in the UK and one in Australia. Click the Whole Woman Practitioners link to learn more about how to contact any of us.
