New Survivor Show

Have you heard about the next planned “Survivor” show?

Our sponsor, The Fourth Trimester: A holistic guide and essential book for the postpartum period.

6 men will be dropped on an island with 1 van and 4 kids each, for 6 weeks.

Each kid plays two sports and either takes music or dance classes.

There is no access to fast food.

Each man must take care of his 4 kids, keep his assigned house clean, correct all homework, complete science projects, cook, do laundry, etc.

The men only have access to television when the kids are asleep and all chores are done.

There is only one TV between them and there is no remote.

The men must shave their legs and wear makeup daily, which they must apply themselves either while driving or while making four lunches. They must attend weekly PTA meetings; clean up after their sick children at 3:00 a.m; make an Indian hut model with six toothpicks, a tortilla and one marker; and get a 4 year old to eat a serving of peas.

The kids vote them off based on performance.

The winner gets to go back to his job!

The Fourth Trimester, a new book from Shambhala Publications, is a holistic guide that offers practical advice to support women through postpartum healing on the physical, emotional, relational, and spiritual levels. It provides women with a roadmap to this very important transition that can last from a few months to a few years. Author Kimberly Ann Johnson draws from her vast professional experience as a mother, doula, postpartum consultant, yoga teacher, body worker, and women’s health care advocate and from the healing traditions of Ayurveda, traditional Chinese medicine, and herbalism.
“In this eye-opening and vital book, all those who care about women, children, and families will find a treasure trove of information and practices that are vital for the health of society. I highly recommend this book.” —Christiane Northrup, MD, OB-GYN physician and author of the New York Times bestseller Women’s Bodies; Women's Wisdom .
