I have been reading this amazing book given to me by my sister called Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom by Christiane Northup.
I just had to tell you about this part of the book I was reading last night, as I found it very interesting.
It is all about Women's energy..............
"According to some Eastern beliefs, women's bodies are different from men's in that the Earth's energy moves up through our bodies and inward. This "female energy is drawing-in" energy, or centripetal force. This centripetal female energy is irresistible. It is so powerful that if one lives in a family setting, most of the household will want to be around the person with the most centripetal energy-usually the mother-and will be acutely aware when she is gone"
She says " My children will save up their complaints for their mother at the end of the day if she isn't around. My children always need to know where I am in the house. If I walked out of the room they call out "Mom where are you?" after about one minute. When they were younger they always had to be in the same room as me. I couldn't take a bath alone until the older one was about nine. In contrast when the children were small, my husband could have been away for much longer before they would even notice."
"Centripetal energy is a grounding force that affects everyone arounds us because women tend to be the centres of their households, taking on psychological responsibility for the well-being of other family members. Therefore when a women changes her life for the better, her entire family (whether or not she has children) generally benefits.She sets the tone. The well-being of the family and of society itself depends upon women becoming and remaining healthy."
I always wondered why my girls say "here Mum" as they hand me their chewing gum they have finished with, or even why other people's kids who I look after do eactly the same thing and don't even bat and eyelid and why when I am in the loo all of a sudden the whole family is in there firing questions at me!!!!!
