Running out of fingers

I find that I am running out of fingers in terms of I have my finger in sooo many pies, that my addiction to thinking is actually being satisfied.  Just a tad might I add.  I am in the process of researching Maori Birth Rites and to find out just what went on back in the days of old.  Its more to do with a satisfaction that what I'm reading is not exactly gospel so to speak.  I cringe when I read the thwarted (yes I said thwarted) research examples based on the historian Elsdon Best.  I actually feel I have a personal vendetta against all of his history books for the mere fact it doesn't add up and we are ritually accused of being Pagans.  So The Birthing Woman - Te Ukaipo has been created to enlighten or educate for want of a better word, anyone who is really interested in looking at the holistic, spiritual and cultural aspect of child birthing and beyond.
Also, there is my natural therapy interest, which I will include in the Birthing Woman blog, as I feel it encompasses a different approach to things womanly.  We are the vessels that bring life and we need to allow them to function as they were meant to.  Couple this with conscious decisions and objections and you make for one unstoppable mama that's for sure.  I am aware that there are hate groups out there who frown upon the holistic ideas in life and am aware that my views on the subject matter may be challenged by my own people.  But, I will go about things as I know and continue to educate myself based on that.  Please drop in on my other blogs if you have the time.
