Breastfeeding and pregnancy reduces a woman’s risk of breast cancer but moms still need to be educated on prevention, detection, and treatment.
At its mother’s breast, a baby is at home. This is where all things begin. Our babies learn to socialize, their brains develop, their little bodies learn to regulate temperature, breathing, and heart rate, and their physiology stabilizes. All this happens on the chest. The profound capacity inherent in a woman’s body has been ignored, overlooked and dismissed for far too long. It is time that we collectively see nursing as the profound act that it is and place value on the product, the process, and recognize the mother as a powerful phenomenon.
For my mom, breastfeeding was one of the first steps she made to care for her family and the earth. How it continues to “greenify” my life and my family.
