/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;I promote the use of washable menstrual products as they do not pollute the earth or your body.  Did you know the absorbent gel used in many disposable pads is left over from the agricultural industry, highly toxic.  Many trees are used in the production of the wood pulp inserted into many types of disposable pads.  Washable cloth pads are soft and comfortable, they do not get thrown into land fill tips sites and take over a 100 years to break down.  They are clean and safe, and the water you soak them in  before washing in your machine can be used as fertilizer on your pot-plants and garden.  Ancient woman have always considered Menstrual blood as Sacred, and by giving it back to the earth you are thanking Nature for all she has provided for your survival.  It is a gratitude filled ritual to return your  blood to the Earth&lt;br /&gt;Mother.  It is not unclean and taboo, as PATRIARCHY would have you believe, it is about &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 153, 0);"&gt;BEING NATURAL, UNASHAMED AND PROUD OF BEING WOMAN!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5586256850273676944-8082486618844384606?l=moonandearthconnections.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://moonandearthconnections.blogspot.com/feeds/8082486618844384606/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://moonandearthconnections.blogspot.com/2009/01/here-are-some-web-links-that-are.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5586256850273676944/posts/default/8082486618844384606'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5586256850273676944/posts/default/8082486618844384606'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://moonandearthconnections.blogspot.com/2009/01/here-are-some-web-links-that-are.html' title=''/><author><name>Jane Anderson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01463799699410645770</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5586256850273676944.post-7117103601399093416</id><published>2008-12-30T15:01:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-12-30T15:14:53.705-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Interesting things to read that I have written'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;I have a Scribd account if you would like to read some of my work:   &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Moon and Earth Connections: A Mother And Daughters Guide to Menstruation the Moon and Mother Earth, Reclaiming your Femininity Through the Moon and Menstrual Cycle&lt;/span&gt;, and some poetry that has come from my studies in Diploma in Sacred Arts, NZ.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;GOOGLE:  "Scribd" AND LOOK FOR MOON AND EARTH CONNECTIONS&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A New Moon, a new year, a new beginning is near, let us take hold of our power and not be devoured by greed, or mislead by the ego...instead, stand tall take courage and not be discouraged by the rage and  inequality , lets make Peace with ourselves and family, for this is the way to sanity and a better world!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5586256850273676944-7117103601399093416?l=moonandearthconnections.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://moonandearthconnections.blogspot.com/feeds/7117103601399093416/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://moonandearthconnections.blogspot.com/2008/12/i-have-scribd-account-if-you-would-like.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5586256850273676944/posts/default/7117103601399093416'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5586256850273676944/posts/default/7117103601399093416'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://moonandearthconnections.blogspot.com/2008/12/i-have-scribd-account-if-you-would-like.html' title=''/><author><name>Jane Anderson</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/01463799699410645770</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5586256850273676944.post-533371473449696751</id><published>2008-12-16T16:05:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2008-12-16T16:10:49.989-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_KposCyTz0hA/SUhDcFqKj5I/AAAAAAAAAAM/3XFWLEQCivw/s1600-h/Jane+email+pic.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor: pointer;
