The Story of PWSH and
The New Vision of Sexual Health Of Women
A True Odyssey Of Body Mind and Spirit
Hi,
Erik Kampe here, founder of the Pathways-Womens-Sexual-Health
(PWSH) website.
Thank you for visiting our website and having an interest to find
out more about the "Pathways Health Team" and me :))
When I first began this project, my female friends were suspicious of my intentions until I explained the bigger vision behind this
website.
If it was not for my ex-wife Terri, and my partner on this project, this
website would never have come to life.
She made me realize one important flaw in my thinking!
Apparently, my explanation that PWSH is an educational resource
dedicated to helping women experience a lifetime of fulfillment and optimal sexual health was insufficient.
Furthermore, I am not surprised that today the most frequently
asked question I get is, "Why is a man dedicating himself to
a women's sexual health website?"
The Power of Sexual Health: "...I
firmly believe women will make the best leaders and "change
agents" to turn the health crisis around..."
Well the short answer is that I firmly believe women are the best
hope we have to turn the current global health crisis around.
Specifically, I believe that sexual health offers the greatest pathway
for individuals to discover overall optimal health.
This may say strange, but it will make sense when I explain the
connections...so please stay with me on this... I guarantee you will
have an ah-ha moment.
With exploding rates of child obesity and diabetes - the time has
come for sustainable action.
And, I am not talking about a revolution inspired government program
or a highly public health campaign that focuses on one aspect or
single dimension of health.
I am speaking of a simple approach of day-to-day healthy living
that is fostered from within the inner circle of a family.
Who better
to lead this silent transformation than women?

Erik Kampe M.S., is an expert in experiential and
transformational learning. He is a co-founder of the Pathways
to Women's Sexual Health.com website and has worked closely with
international health and wellness experts in holistic health for
over 15 years.
His latest project the Grand Adventure received
national media coverage on FoxSport News.
Erik began his interests in health as a national
level athlete and received his B.S. in Physical Health & Education
in 1991.
He has worked as a professional fitness trainer
and continued to expand his knowledge of peak performance and
personal development in the area of business leadership and management

to human performance
in health and small business coaching.
Drawing upon his experience expertise in learning,
technology and health, Erik removes the confusion of information
overload and leads his clients in a process that teaches them
how to become their own health expert.
The fact is we face a huge health crisis in the modern western
world.
I repeat, the global health epidemic is evident by the alarming
rates of obesity, heart disease and cancer in both adults and children.
Today women are proven leaders in dealing with
this social problem and universal health epidemic.
For example, marketing research indicate that women are the most active Internet users seeking tradiational health and alternative
health solutions.
More importantly for me is seeing women in action in my personal
and professional life.
In 2002, I co-created a cutting edge integrative health and wellness
program (called The Grand Adventure) for which we ran two pilot
programs.
The women in the programs clearly demonstrated a higher level of
commitment to take personal responsibility for their health.
It was through these women that I was inspired to extend the health
message of:
"Health is our birthright - We don't
Get Sick, We Make Ourselves sick"
to the largest possible audience.
One client in particular, Mary inspired me to carry on the message
in a way I never would have imagined.
It was through her determination to reclaim her health by climbing
the Grand Teton that I was reminded to never let your dreams die
- keep finding a way to make it happen!
Even the impossible dream!
There is a spiritual strength gained by attempting the impossible, that can not be gained in any other way.
Throughout century's great teachers across all cultures valued the movement towards goals and not the blind achievement of them.
Mary's story reminded me of this maxium. That doing the impossible is not about you achieving, but rather the impossible coming to you.
I left the Grand Adventure knowing that I needed to do.
The creation of a woman
specific health site for all women of all ages. And of course men would benefit greatly.
It was only during my research did I discover the hidden connections
and the opportunity to present health information through the perspective
of sexual health.
It is important to emphasize that unlike other health sites that
that promote diets and fitness solutions, PWSH seeks to offer a
pathway to optimal wellness through the doorway of sexuality.
Why Sexuality?
Because I believe it is the most powerful force and doorway to
health!
It is also the least understood, under served and overlooked segment
of health. Just look at the thousands of sites dedicated to diet
and exercise.
Unfortunately, many miss the very basic concepts of health by offering
only single one-off solutions. Somehow sexuality in Western culture is voiced through the medical community where it is given a second class treatment.
The information is dry, emotionally barren and devoid of passion. It is stuck in the land of do-this and get that mentality.
Conversely, a majority of sexuality sites tend to lean towards
a cheap tastless porn theme.
The PWSH website takes the best of both worlds and offers you a chance to experience your sexuality without guilt, shame or fear. Our approach to sexual health is integrative - a fussion of body, mind and spirit.
Much of our content comes from you the reader and your requests for specific information.
You do not need a Ph.D to understand that there are 4 basic, but
required, elements to human health:
-
Water
-
Food
-
Exercise
-
Human Contact
However, as a modern woman you know the well-being dilemma!
You most likely know that it's important to eat right, exercise
and get plenty of sleep, but you probably have trouble making it
happen.
I see this struggle with health not only with my clients, but also
with the women in my life including my wife, mother, sister and
female friends - there is a common pattern of care that goes something
like:
"Nurture everybody else before yourself"
You may continue to eat calorie rich, nutritiously empty meals
and forego exercise in your daily life routine - the ritual of sacraficing
yourself for everyone else may have become so routine that you do
not notice it anymore.
But when it comes to human contact the deepest part of our being
is stired and agitated without it.
There is no way a child can grow and develop without it.
"You need sexual health to live
well and experience happiness and satisfaction in all areas of
your life"
Human contact is an expression of sexuality. You need sexual health
to live well and experience happiness and satisfaction in all areas
of your life.
The desire to have high levels of intimacy and connectedness with
others is a powerful healing force that all women naturally and
instinctively share.
It is my hope that your motivation to examine your sexuality and
improve your sex life expands and transforms into this healing force.
A force that may encourage you to take care of yourself FIRST,
as only then can you be fully available to those who need you -
and by doing so you will lead your family and those around you to
a healthier and happier life.
With increased confidence and patience new hope and possibilities
are born for you and everyone around you.
This website was created with the view that human contact and intimacy
are foundational and necessary components to health and inner-peace,
and that these are not trivial or selfish desires.
From this perspective, you can see women's sexual health is a life-long
journey.
Passion and sexuality are not the exclusive domain of the "Youth" obssessed media culture.
Sexual health exists throughout all decades of your life and I think that this needs to be celebrated - not whispered about behind closed doors.
Thank God for the success of "Sex and the City" - it really openned the door to an new era for all - both men and women!
From the onset of menstruation to menopause and beyond, the journey
has many twists and turns.
Each decade offers you a unique gift in the form of insights to
being a woman - as a man I can only go so far. I have limits and
boundaries to the subjects I can speak about.
That is why I can only start this journey, and I call upon the
women around me to carry forth the message of women's sexual health.
If you feel you can contribute an article or insight please do
share.
I am seeking women partners who embrace the philosophy of this
website to expand and carry the message onward. There are many pathways
to health, and we seek to offer women a full range of choices to
improve their lives.

living please send your inquires and ideas here:
I hope you have come to recognize that the PWSH website is more
than a dispenser of women's sex information - it is a pathway toward
creating peace and harmony and health.
To Your Sexual Health,

Erik Kampe, Founder of Pathways-Womens-Sexual-Health.com
