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 Belly,
Hi Belly,
Here is a great post from Christine about toe first walking:
https://www.wholewoman.com/forum/comment/57008#comment-57008
It took me quite some time, months in fact, to start getting a better feeling with the whole woman walking, But, as the lumbar curvature starting taking place, and as I was getting all those posture principles down, I then started really stretching it out, and I could feel my organs moving into the lower belly as I walked along. This was almost a year into this work for me, so for some of us, it does take a little more time and diligence.
Just keep at it, it will come along for you too.

walking in posture
definitely do some searches on here - you'll get tons of advice...
I saw christine's description of toe walking and I have to say - it feels pretty good. not sure i could walk like that more than a few steps tho - self conscious!
Otherwise - regular heel to toe walking is how you do it. Keep your feet straight forward and follow the posture on top. My biggest problem is when I walk in ww posture - I tend to be so stiff! I'm looking straight ahead and I'm scared to turn my head :) but i've only been doing this for like 6 months and i'm not doing a ton of walking yet anyway...
long strides is good
i personally focus on lifting chest, lifting tailbone and i pretend someone's pulling my ponytail (or messy bun depending on the day) up from above. I had a bad habit of pushing my chin outwards and/or up so i'm trying to focus on pulling up from the back of my head, chin down.
also breathing thru diaphragm and belly out on in breath.
As i'm walking i keep tweaking so that's why the longer my walk the better my posture becomes... shorter bursts around the office i don't get the chance to tweak.
