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.

Whether you’re an old friend or a new acquaintance, welcome! The Whole Woman forum is a place where you can make a difference in your own life and the lives of thousands of women around the world!

sitting right
Hi Mamaleona
Fear not. There is hardly a seat on this earth that I cannot find a way to sit on satisfactorily. You many actually have the only totally useless seat in the universe.
What exactly is this evil seat? Can you describe it for us, complete with the different adjustments that are possible? Or does it have a name with a picture of it on its Brand's website? If not, would it be possible to take a picture of it and send it to Lanny @ wholewoman.com (without the spaces). Lanny is the Technical Expert for the site. I am sure he would be able to put it on the server and post a link to it under this topic. Then we can all critique it.
Quite honestly, the fancier the chair the more difficult it can be to adjust correctly. For my money the best seat is a stool with a uniformly horizontal, padded seat that allows me to sit on it with me feet planted well apart, thighs sloping slightly down, and no back. You know, the sort of seat they put out in the back store room as a door stop.
Looking forward to hearing the details. I'll tell Lanny to keep an eye out for a picture of a chair.
Louise :-)

chair
It's an office chair with arms that can adjust up and down; the seat can also be adjusted up and down, tilted forward or back. For now I sit with my feet about 6-8" apart pointing straight ahead with my legs relaxed. This enables me to sit with a good, comfortable posture without much problem. I'll try to take a picture or get the make/model for you. I appreciate the help.

The evil seat
Does it have a dished seat that is higher at the sides than the middle? They are a pain because you can't sit with your legs apart. I prefer my feet about 500mmm apart for stability.
Does the back raise and lower? Sit without the aid of the back if the back is the wrong shape, or doesn't have room for your butt.
I would be secretly getting out my screwdriver one lunchtime and removing the arms, or else putting them right down, out of the way of my forearms when my shoulders are relaxed. If your arms hit the arms of the chair I think you would be within your rights to remove the arms or ask for a different chair. Otherwise your arms will push your shoulders up and forwards. It would drive me nuts. Your other alternative with this seat, to get the arms out of the way, would be to lower the whole seat and put a big thick cushion on it. The arms would be relatively lower.
A picture is probably not necessary. It just sounds like one of those ergonomic chairs that is designed for a non-existent average person's body.
