Podcast- Preparing for Pregnancy After Loss
Episode referenced- Why people don’t heal
1:28 Natalee’s intro
1:54 “You are the expert of your body… all of the wisdom is already inside you”
2:18 Love Yourself Heal Your Life
2:48 “What are the lived experiences that we’ve had… how can that injury lead to more injury- more trauma”
5:44 Dr Gabor Maté “Trauma isn’t the thing that happened to you; it’s how it changed you”
7:31 “The rules we have right now, someone made them up, and if they don’t work, let’s change them”
9:09 “Is this mine or someone else’s?”
I think I want another baby…
11:38 “Above the ocean is the consciousness…”
12:30 “At the end of the day you might find that the baby isn’t necessarily the answer, it’s the healing that’s wanted”
I need another baby vs. I want another baby
14:05 “There are people who prefer to work things out on the mental level… pen and paper is good for that”
16:53 “We’re passing different thresholds as we go through different experiences”
Joseph Campbell
Be with the bigness of whatever hurt is causing this stuckness
21:22 “If there’s no explanation; it must be my fault”
21:55 “Sometimes it is the body not feeling safe enough to become pregnant”
22:08 “The body is always working in partnership with you”

It doesn’t have to all make sense- the answers are not all in one place
28:10 “If I decide to go on this healing journey I’m going to unearth some things I don’t want to deal with… that’s when you know it’s time to get some help”
30:33 “because I did that God is punishing me”
31:59 “you’re holding the history and the story”
Have someone to witness the noticing with you
