Teaching/treating and whatever happens ..
The table below needs amending – this is DRAFT

As your Gentling Way practitioner I am here to educate and support you on your healing journey. It’s time to feel well again.

I was attracted to the Gentling Way because I knew that Heather had handpicked what works from her life long practice over 43 years as an renowned acupuncturist, naturopath, and Mericer & Arvigo therapist.
Learning the Gentling Way is like a having a cheat sheet to healing.
 It’s not about forcing – it’s about enabling yourself to heal.

I am an Alternative Medicine Practitioner, Health Intuitive, Naturopath, Gentling Way Practitioner, Iridologist and Medical Herbalist. I am beyond passionate when it comes to women’s health and will do my utmost for you to feel well again. 

I got into natural medicine after losing family members to hormonal-based cancers. I lost my mum to breast cancer when I was 21 years old, then my grandmother and aunty passed from the same condition a few years later.

Then in my 30’s I was suffering horrendous periods, which required hospitalisation due to the pain.
Sometimes it would take four Morphine injections, intravenous Tramadol and Fentanyl injections just to stabilise me.
I became a common fixture in the gyno-ward at North Shore Hospital.
After all of that screaming, doctors were still unaware of what was wrong with me?

It took over 10 years to be officially diagnosed with stage IV endometriosis.
Unfortunately, this is the case for most endometriosis clients due to a lack of awareness.

What next?
Live with this chronic pain.
Well, that was the best answer the Dr’s had – long-term pain meds, surgery, and dwindling chance of ever falling pregnant.

Well little did my doctors know that I can be quite determined (Aries star sign). When I set my sights on something, I make it happen. I threw myself into the world of natural healing modalities – There must be a way to feel well again.

Firstly I removed all inflammatory foods from my diet, these included gluten, sugar, coffee, chocolate to name a few.  This made a world of difference.

Then my focus shifted to getting pregnant.  I was also working on preconception care to make high quality embryo for IVF treatment as I was told I would never get pregnant naturally because the endometriosis was blocking my fallopian tubes.  My embryologist was very impressed with my A grade embryo.  

Even though the IVF was a success, as a result of the procedure I got sepsis in the first few weeks of pregnancy.  I had to have emergency lifesaving surgery, blood transfusions and weeks of IV antibiotics.  They sent me to an early birthing unit and told me weekly that my baby probably wouldn’t survive.  I flat out refused to listen to those voices of doom and prayed for divine protection for my little baby.    Potentially I could have skipped the IVF process altogether had I known about the gentling way.   

 Unfortunately I discovered Heathers massage methods very late in the picture which opened up a whole new paradigm of health. I didn’t know that the uterus could be displaced or that adhesions, endo scars could be dissolved by using traditional wise woman methods that have been around for centuries. 

I now have a beautiful six month old baby girl and currently see clients from pre conception through to postpartum care, with a special focus on pelvic pain and fertility.

What is different about Gentling Way?

We work with Qi, the heart and the soul through intention, breath and ground this in release through the body.

Whether you are here for you or as an adjunct to what you have been professionally trained in – the journey from dark to Light from STUCK to choice is individual, may take many trajectories BUT – all are called into service to be here.
Something is missing. You have been on a quest!

We MUST start with our own self and our current soul journey
To be here you know that you are more than a body, and not bound to your personality or past – no limitations besides your beliefs.
These modules are sequential – regardless of your past training (formal and life). The gaps we all have as cracks that are widening in the chasm between our programming and our own lived experience – must be somehow made different sense of.

Some modules are stand alone. In time, GW graduates will be stepping up to take the teaching online/in-person classes.

Welcome – in red are beginnings – to go on –  we deepens as you go within (Paradigm shifting)

Free Your Own Qi – becoming responsive and responsible

Selfing (through undoing our own life libraries – with extra perspectives and tools

Discovery –  uncovering why we are ‘what’/who’ we believed we were into

Sita – a birth keeper speaks . . .

Midwife speaks

My name is Yvonne Argent. I’ve been a midwife since 1980. I have practiced midwifery in many different settings. I first met Heather around 2006 in Brisbane through the Home Birth Group, as I was practicing as a home birth midwife at the time.

Below is a list of many different things that I saw as changes in the health of women that Heather and I were caring for at that time.

• Ease with which these women gave birth. ( Women with a history of long slow painful labours giving birth in 2-3 hours or less without drugs for pain relief)
• Correct positioning of baby giving rise to easier births. Better positioning of transverse babies or unstable lie with grand multi para.
• Turning of breech babies ( or easier labours for women who choose to birth their breech babies vaginally)
• Change in symptoms of women with many serious conditions eg Pre-eclampsia, polyhydramnious, oligohydramnious, cholestasis of pregnancy, Gestational diabetes of pregnancy, placental problems like low fetal growth, high fetal growth, twins, pelvic or backache of pregnancy, morning sickness, or nausea thru out pregnancy, essential hypertension.
  (Many of these women improved so much they still were able to birth at home easily).
• Post birth:- easy effective birthing of placentas. How to stop or control bleeding post birth without drugs.
• Improved healing for any damaged perineums especially for 3^rd and 4^th degree tears.
  Outcomes for subsequent pregnancies much better with more holistic healing
• Better outcomes for women with depression, both ante-natallly and post-natally.
• Improved baby and mother attachment leading to much improved health for mother and baby post-natally, better breast feeding etc

To achieve these things it has meant some small changes in my practice. No breaking rules of our profession. I spend much more time on diet and lifestyle. I have stopped using cold on perineums or breasts. Using heat you achieve great outcomes right when you want them plus better for long term health. Using Moxa sticks and massage on mothers sacrum and back.

Heather runs courses for midwives which help them learn how to be able to assist women to have much more enjoyable pregnancies and births. I have been incorporating different things in my practice, like no cold application at any time, better education about their bodies, better able to understand their bodies, encouraging women to take responsibility for their own and their children’s health, being patient with nature and allowing the women’s body to birth the baby and the placenta themselves.
ADDITION – Using moxa sticks and massage and teaching dads to help their partners to achieve the great birth they are wanting to have.

RESULTS

• Almost zero induction rate,
• 90% homebirth rate with no drugs, (only non pharmaceutical pain relief),
• only occasional tears,
• no episiotomy rate,
• 95% + breast feeding rate,
• minimal 3^rd day blues, only occasional post natal depression and by far
• almost 100% women who love their labour and want to repeat it.

Using Heather’s ways, I been able to have a more enjoyable practice, able to give women a healthier happier pregnancy, birth and post natal period. Even when working with previously labeled ‘higher risk’ women.

ABOUT HEATHER:

Heather is extremely passionate about helping women to birth naturally – and what’s more to enjoy their birth. Her focus is not only on what is best for both mother and baby but also the whole family. Differing to other health professionals, she has incorporated many different health modalities to be able to give all a more complete healing for both mothers and babies: this puts them in a fantastic place of complete health. Her comprehensive manual/videos – What Dads Can Do . . is a great tool to help with what, where, why and when you can do to keep mum in optimum health throughout her whole pregnancy into the  postnatal period and back into her active family life, to eventual menopause and old age.

Welcome – to go on –  we deepen as you go within (Paradigm shifting)

You may ask . . ..
How would this differ from what else I may have done?
Vastly – this is energy and soul/nutritionally based, as well as gentle body work.
PLUS what I call ‘Pricklies’ (as a past acupuncturist, acupuncture course designer, teacher and mentor of so many Qi movers – we take a paradigm shift – out of the physical and into the circuitry that runs life

You begin as you take the foundational Awakening course

.
The courses within:
1 – What Causes Health? I answer an unasked question – how do I live well? And how a body heals itself. ENERGY/Electrical circuitry
2 – Soothing (intro belly moves ) and
3 – Peristeaming (you can take the time out to undo your day using water, warmth and plant medicine).

The essence of the Gentling Way body of work . .

MOVING STUCK

We let go to live more fully.
Being STUCK does not allow flows


It creates more DAMP and HEAT and from there – inflammation and conditions all the bio medically inclined seek to solve – without listening to the heart and body lament – is unlikely to end well and harmoniously.

ALL FLOWS MUST FLOW
Life goes in cycles.
Balance is dynamic. .

It may be time to Step Up
Get serious about undoing yourself/cage of beliefs.
MAYBE STUCK IN THE MIDDLE – and want to move on?
Choice . .

In linear time – this ‘life’ looks like this.
As taken from a biological body/mind perspective.

Maybe you feel like this?

On edge – constantly?
Too hard to even be a person without trying to keep

Tried everything?
Wonder if there is more?

Maybe – step aside from what/who you think that you are?
IT IS ALL UP TO YOU – CHANGE/HEAL – OR STAY STUCK .
Is it time yet?
(TO let go?)

Your body remembers everything that has ever happened to it

intimate, experiential – as much as it can be online.
Most will be those who are acting RIGHT THIS MINUTE and letting me know

Creating new families. . . .

Being made well is the birth right of all beings.
Attaining – Nourishing – Sustaining Pregnancy – have all been met.
Here we are making better babies – by enhancing the pregnancy experience.
As a time of vast change – pregnancy is a time of rapid growth and healing for mum – as she creates the architecture of a new beings’ world.

Impact of influences on a life

We concern ourselves with the first third of the time when life impact vastly shapes who we are.
The closer to our beginnings, the more perilous life is. The more we are permanently branded.
Or Bonsai’ed
We pay attention, making sure that Making Better Babies is our goal.

WHAT CAN YOU DO AT THE END OF THIS?

1 – Undo your own STUCK in your and your partner’s and family/friends/clients/patient’s bodies. (The What Dads Can Do work is applicable across any one – any age, every stage of life).
2 – Assist anyone whose pelvic flow is less than ideal – to return to easy alignment. With your own hands – and a real smoky moxa stick.
3 – Understand what creates ease of living – a well aligned body – all three circles – soul, mind and body working as designed – on automatic.
4 – Teach anyone the practicals of what is in WDCD – as pelvic opening once you have completed to certification level – as then you will be on the Opening Baby Gate site.
5 – Potentially go through the GW training to then become a multi modality/multi lineage Qi and body aligner with the supportive GW tribe.
6 – Enhance all you do in clinic – if you are already a health care practitioner
7 – Enhance everyone’s experience of pregnancy.
8 – Become an Opening the baby Gate/ Pelvic Opening – easy babies birthing support

What is different about this work?

Life based.
Not medical/ongoing dependency enhancing.
Self responsibility and intention to do good.
We look to the entire human unit. Not only the body. Or the broken bits – but all of who we are – and to become.
It is personalised – we MUST continually reflect on self.
Is baby centered – and Dad inclusive.
A tribe needed to support the new parents to be. .

By beginning the Selfing component – we dig into our own stories, our own inner libraries and our own resistances – so in non judgment we may accept all of ourselves. . to undo what gifts we have chosen to shy away from – and in so doing missing what maybe our spectacular piece of the puzzle of life in this planet, now.
All is practical.
All has been clinically proven across time (I researched and developed it over 30 years in clinic to the write the manual WDCD), cultures and countries.
For ‘touch kluztes’ (well intentioned dads) through to seasoned midwives – it all works. . .

Intimate – only space for 12 in the course

4 – Show up for the one day intensive – online initially only offered).
5 – Be part of the any-time catch ups and weekly ‘clinic’ sessions with Heather as the month post course progresses – leading you into teaching Pelvic Opening
And deeper in the Gentling Way work
You will be one of the trainers on the Opening the Baby Gate site in time, ales once through – past Living Ligaments stage (equivalent and very more detailed version of the Arvigo P.C.T., Mizan or other Maya inspired work – as we incorporate across many cultures and women’s way of knowing – what works – NOW – and as a gentler, more natural way to express being woman and being human.

We go on . .
Through undoing US so we can assist those who seek help . .

About you . .

Looking for answers? In pain? Suffering? Misery? Trauma ongoing . . .?
All and every level of pain is likely to be the solution to something that is hidden. It may be that you are told something you do not agree with – to be searching still. Whether it is you are to be the way you are forever onwards – that you must ‘learn to live with it’: be it in pain and take medications, can’t sleep and the same, depressed – likewise,  infertile, even . .  about to die or anything in between. Maybe it has all just worn you down . . severe and long standing pain will do that.
Possibly you are on a slew of medications  . . . ..
Feel like you have been everywhere and tried everything?
STILL got what started you down the path of searching? And here you are . .
Let us go down a different path . . . Find out what your body telling you.
When we find that answer – it is likely the ever louder warnings – especially pain – will diminish.

Need some help?

We all are congested in the pelvis. We store life residue there – incidents, operations, and falls – all work to reduce the natural flows that allow periods, babies, and Qi (life force) to flow as designed.

Little asked question .
If we wish to ‘fix’ it – we may need to know. .

How does a body work?

1 – Structure determines function:
Here we have the bio mechanical aspects.

The pelvis is the central way through – for all blood vessels and nerve pathways to allow life to function.
Is it able to freely flow?
That is a question that all need asking – when there is ANY pain or dysfunction.
What to do?
Ask – what happened? It must have worked better at some point – and go from there.

2 – Life impacts
What has left its mark on a supposedly perfect system as life happened?

We need to see what is blocking normal.
Assuming that the body/mind ever was working optimally – this alone is a massive subject.
Accidents, incidents, expectations not met, whatever is STUCK and not moving this is where we need go find resolution.

3 – Input:
Ingredients (nutrients) and also information

Most see what they eat – and to a point this is important.
More though – is what you do with it next.

4 – What you do with it – can the body process this?
Not only the gut – food factory – but the mind – is there an over flow? STUCK again?

Whatever problem the person is focusing on – the entire body will be in disorder.
This is where the energy model being holistic is turned to in all the Gentling Way work.
We have hardware – the physical body – and the electrics – the energy that runs us – allows us to be.

USING THE TABLE ANALOGY – ANOTHER VERSION

Maybe a more holistic/life approach will help you live in your body better?

CENTRAL CONCEPTS
Body heals itself
Flows must flow
Body remembers/(stores for later) everything that has ever happened to it
Energy follows thought
Structure determines function

If we get past what is blocking this – life is easier

PAIN?

Shows up when there is blockage.
Anywhere.
That simple.

Body heals itself

When it can – what stops it – back to nutrients (availability of quality and ability to process)
and flows (wastes out and what is needed to keep the system functioning perfectly balanced). . . .

Flows must flow – circulation

A novel concept? We assume too much sometimes – Are the basics happening?
Not if you are in a house and the sewerage backs up – is obvious. Or if the water in the taps is not running.
Regardless of the way the body seems to be breaking down currently – the place to start is to look to nutrients and circulation
What fuels and repairs the body? Is it getting in and being used appropriately? 
Is the system getting sufficient flows of what is needed happening?

ASK:
What they have  .
What is supposed to be  . .
How to get one back to the other?

What is not cleared, is stored

Body remembers/(stores for later) everything that has ever happened to it
Circulation again – and . . .

Energy follows thought

Assumptions, beliefs, expectation and desires
This is part of the programming – Survival – homeostasis (bringing back balance) is needed for this.
Body – has a plan seed to seed . . . growth, reproduction and aging through – 7 and 8 year cycles.
Mind – is cluttered with life and what ‘self’ wants.
Soul – why here? Life to experience and to learn. .

Structure determines function

Being within a physical body, we can only work as well as the alignment.
Hence in Gentling Way we have to centre the centre – on the physical – that is the womb.
In the life – that is having the driver where overseeing all is possible. Clarity.
Aligning to our life purpose . .
If we have no idea look to what you resist the most – that is likely the gift that needs unwrapping (hence we start always with selfing and going through to Self Discovery and on into Self Mastery – as the self needs to be put in its place
