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.

Hi Josie_7,
Hi Josie_7,
Once you have mastered whole woman posture you can experiment with different things to see if they are conducive with the posture or throw you out of posture. Those activities that throw you out of posture are better left aside.
Have you had a chance to look around this site and read about the whole woman work?

Hi Josie - as a new member, you are directed to read about the Forum from the link above left. If you are engaged in or interested in the Whole Woman work, we would love to hear your story and offer suggestions. You will learn, as AG points out, that it isn't what we do, but how, that affects prolapse. - Surviving

Bladder prolapse
Thanks for your comments. I have a bladder prolapse that fluctuates between being something I forget about and something I'm painfully aware of when it starts appearing at the entrance to the vagina. I found Christine's site on the net when the problem first arose 8 or so years ago. I have her book and tapes and work on my posture to the point where I manage it quite well. Recently I resumed yoga after a break of 15 or so years and 8 Saturday sessions into it, my problem returned. Rereading Christine's book I find that the "down dog" posture is particularly problematic for pelvic support and that pose is very much a part of the type of yoga I was doing. Needless to say I've stopped going to those classes and am back doing Christine's First Aid for Prolapse exercises. I will try her yoga tape as well as I have always incorporated yoga into my life and do various poses on a regular basis. It's a matter of sticking to the poses that are safe! - Josie

Hi Josie,
Hi Josie,
Good idea. Christine actually does do the down dog in several of her videos, so maybe it was another traditional yoga pose that threw you out of balance. I do love her yoga series; they always give me a good stretching and work out the kinks.

posture
I have just received and watched the video. Just want to make sure that I understand.....the posture is actually quite easy and non complicated, but it is practicing and maintaining it that is the challenge right??

Hi tripletmom and welcome.
Hi tripletmom and welcome. You are absolutely right! "Remembering to remember" as Christine puts it, is the toughest challenge at the beginning. Over time you will find yourself maintaining posture more or less automatically, but there will always be times when you may have to stop and re-evaluate and tweak a particular action. And even now I find myself holding tension in the belly from time to time. Remembering to return to posture is something that really anchors you to yourself.....keeps you in touch with your body in a very positive way. - Surviving
