'Wombs for Wisdom' Deluxe Gift Set
As seen at the 2007 MAMA Convention in Mexico, these hand sculpted, one of a kind polymer clay uterus models
are excellent tools for educating women about their uterus. Designed to function as a set, they are made
to the approximate anatomical size, shape and weight (based on medical research) of a non-menstruating uterus,
and a menstruating one. They are user-friendly and will give your clients and students an instant understanding
of the impact of uterine placement and monthly cyclical change in the pelvis. Truly a great visual and kinesthetic aid.
Also, a great conversation opener for women's health topics! Set includes a menstruating uterus,
non-menstruating uterus, hand crafted dual chambered velvety storage pouch, and a booklet of ideas for use.
Please email me for prices and availability.

"I have actually used the set a couple of times already as a way to draw clients in for a possible visit.
It was COOL watching a woman's face light up as she understood why her legs hurt when her uterus
is displaced at 5 days prior to her cycle. You are Simply the Best!! - Trish D., ATMAM practitioner in NJ
"I've started using my models with my clients and it is great seeing the lights come on when they realize why
they need to take special care of their wombs when they are heavier. They also work great with my life-size pelvic model.
Thank you so much for this work." - Terra R. Registered Midwife, Ayurvedic and ATMAM practitioner in CO
“Thank you so much for the uterus model. All of the ladies in the office love it! I love it! It is anatomically correct...
the size and shape are wonderful for helping patients visualize actual uterine size.” - Dr. Terri T. OB-GYN in LA

Artisan Herbals
I occasionally teach self care herbal courses. Please see 'classes' for more information.
Herbals for the Outer Self
I seasonally offer hand-crafted herbals for sale. I originally developed them for my personal use when I became
unable to tolerate the toxic chemicals found in most body care and commercial massage therapy products.
When my friends and family became interested in them, I began to offer them to my community.
My herbals are made without any synthetic or petrochemical ingredients or preservatives, colorings or fragrances.
They are made with ethically wild crafted, non-sprayed local, or certified organic ingredients.
I use what nature made in the closest form she made it in. I handcraft each product in small batches with care
so the ingredients can offer their peak benefit to you. The result is vibrant, fresh, non-toxic botanical body care.
Herbals include: herbal massage oil, breast oil, saponified milk and honey soap, nighttime face cream,
body cream, salves, lip balm, foot balm, aura and room sprays.
Herbals for the Inner Self
I am pleased to make available to you a variety of traditional Maya herbal remedies straight from
the luminous jungles of Belize. These come to me through my mentor Dr. Rosita Arvigo, DN,
who inherited them from her long apprenticeship with Don Elijio Panti, a traditional h'men of the Yucatec Maya.
The herbs are gathered by Rosita's team of helpers (who are traditional people gathering plants in their traditional
way with prayers, respect, and gratitude) from the virgin jungle, prior to the scheduled demolition of that tract
of land. As a result, these plants are from some of the most mineral-rich living soil left in the world, and
are grown next to their natural symbiotic neighboring plants in a location where they would thrive.
What can be replanted in the Terra Nova Biomedicinal Plant Reserve is replanted, and what cannot
be replanted is hand dried, chopped and blended to make these beautiful traditional herbal medicines.
All tinctures are made with 100% organic vodka, prayers for wellness, and love and gratitude.
Please email me for prices and availability.
