When I first “cracked the code” on stabilizing and reversing prolapse, and wrote and published Saving the Whole Woman, I set up this forum. While I had finally gotten my own severe uterine prolapse under control with the knowledge I had gained, I didn’t actually know if I could teach other women to do for themselves what I had done for my condition.
So I just started teaching women on this forum. Within weeks, the women started writing back, “It’s working! I can feel the difference!”
From that moment on, the forum became the hub of the Whole Woman Community. Unfortunately, spammers also discovered the forum, along with the thousands of women we had been helping. The level of spamming became so intolerable and time-consuming, we regretfully took the forum down.
Technology never sleeps, however, and we have better tools today for controlling spam than we did just a few years ago. So I am very excited and pleased to bring the forum back online.

Rounded shoulders
Good point. This has always been an issue for me. In fact, several years ago when I attended the conference, Christine herself brought it to my attention. I was trying so hard to follow the directive of not pulling my shoulders BACK, that I was failing to realize that they were still rounded too far forward. So for you and me, maybe we have to think of pulling them back just a bit, to compensate for our half-century of rounded shoulders. Maybe a better way of thinking, is to tell yourself to "open your chest". That helped me. - Surviving

Hi eagnes65 and welcome,
Hi eagnes65 and welcome,
You can find very comprehensive and thorough explanations in Christine's videos. I would suggest here First Aid for Prolapse for starters, here: https://whole-woman.thinkific.com/courses/first-aid-for-prolapse-video
Or, just the basics here: https://whole-woman.thinkific.com/courses/whole-woman-fundamentals
It would also be a great to just read around on this site to get a better idea of what the whole woman work is all about.
With that said, can you tell us a little more about yourself, what prolapse you are having, etc?

Blue_Sky - rounded shoulders
Hi, yes and issue that the majority of us have is that our shoulders are bent forward.
I have been able to achieve a flat upper back, however my shoulders have a built in bend that is a challenge.
Thanks for the reminder as I am sure that a lot of carpel tunnel or numb hands are related to the nerves and blood flow that can be squashed by our shoulder forward or leaning forward to do things like talk to others or write, read or type. It makes sense to me as I do get some of those symptoms. I know of someone heading for surgery and I know it is their humped back and rounded shoulders not helping but I have difficulty getting them to believe that it is posture related.
One of the discussions we have had here is the holding of the baton above our heads in the lying down position, remembering to keep shoulders down, and not having our arms able to touch the floor, and I think that is related to shoulder joints being slightly bent forward. Over time that will be possible also as so many things I never realized with WWP that could be possible!
This week, I was watching the floor gymnastics with the young girls doing amazing things with hoops, however when they sat down afterward they not only slouched, and when they sat up a little, their shoulders were also bent forward as if the bones had become moulded that way...
I will keep talking about ww posture and its benefits,
Thankyou for the discussions,
All the best!
