While the forum is now closed, we have left it intact because of the amazing amount of important data it has collected over its fifteen year life. It is searchable and we encourage women to make use of it.
Questions should be directed to the Whole Woman Community Message Board going forward.
Many thanks to everyone who made use of the forum and took the time and effort to help out others who often came to Whole Woman in a dark place, desperate for information, and came away with hope, encouragement, and the tools they needed to stabilize and reverse their conditions.
You have all made a difference here.
Best wishes,

Stress
Yes....stress is absolutely a factor affecting every aspect of our health and well-being. A certain amount is normal and healthy, but when it's chronic it is not only distracting but harmful. Even after you have made the posture more or less automatic, stress will often throw you off because it causes that belly to tighten up, and you don't even realize it. This still happens to me at times. - Surviving
