Healthy Body = Healthy Pregnancy
To achieve a healthy pregnancy, you have to begin by being a healthy person. My feeling is the need to treat the person holistically. Holistic doesn’t really have anything to do with alternative medicine, looking at how all of the systems are working together.
One of the more useful concepts that Daoism uses is that everything is holographic. This is why Chinese medicine uses a lot of metaphors and also how diagnostic techniques evolved. Coincidentally, this ancient view of the universe is gaining in popularity in modern times.
If you have ever tried to grow something in a garden you know that the first thing you need is a seed. And for a seed to be successful it has to have been created well and morphologically sound, otherwise no matter how enticing you make the soil or the environment, nothing is going to grow. If the seed is good, next you need to make sure the soil is fertile. So we look at what factors make good soil, is there enough water?, does it have the right nutrients?, is the pH right?
