'I have just completed your Breastfeeding
Simply ebook and it is just fantastic. I am a midwife, a lactation
consultant and a breastfeeding mum and have never read such a
comprehensive book that is also easy to read and follow. I am going to
adapt my practice to a few of your ideas! It is just full of common
sense and the best part is that you can incorporate your own style into
the advice. This means that you don't have to compromise your own
beliefs which inturn makes every little bit of information really work.
Your book is a must read and
should be on every woman's (and man's) bookshelf. Thank you so much for
your effort, you really have changed the way I look at breastfeeding
and I know that my little boy, Luke, will benefit from all your
knowledge and practical tips. THANK YOU SO MUCH."

Jane is founder and midwife of The School of Shamanic Midwifery - a women's mystery school. schoolofshamanicmidwifery.blogspot
I have just attended my third 'Pregnancy-the Inner
Journey' workshop. I am 30 weeks pregnant with my second child. The wisdom and
insights shared and gained have been just as profound as my first workshop with
Jane, which I attended prior to consciously conceiving my son. The nature of the sacred space that is created by Jane
and the other women attending allows an incredible opportunity for insight and
healing. I felt very safe, held and heard and so very blessed to witness the
vulnerabilities and deep wisdom of the other women. Together we all weaved a
web of love, support and understanding. I feel wonderfully empowered as a woman and in awe of
the mystery and magic of pregnancy, birth, mothering....life !! I believe all women, pregnant or planning on being
pregnant, would greatly benefit from this workshop!! Emma Berry, NSW
A women gathering is always a
wonderful opportunity to reconnect with our selves and remember how special and
unique females are, but Moonsong was much more than this: I discovered the
little goddess that lives inside me and forms part of an ancient sisterhood
perfectly synchronised with the rhythms of natural cycles, from the circle of
life and death to the changes of seasons, the moon phases and our most inner
being. Everything is interconnected and beautifully woven by the old wisdom
of Herstory, which must be remembered and cherished by every woman to be
kept alive. Jane guided us into our untold story with her sweetness and charm,
she made us smile and laugh and cry and feel grateful for being part of such a
wonderful universe. A life changing experience. HO! Martina, Manly NSW
