Besides promoting a healthy life style, a consistent yoga practice will address your fertility needs at any stage of your process. We focus on a sequence of postures (asanas), breathing (pranayama), meditation and relaxation techniques developed specifically for you.

In addition to adding strength, tone and balance to your body, yoga addresses how you respond to the stress in your life and provides you with a path to discovering a more authentic sense of yourself.

My work specifically focus's on helping those trying to conceive, those who are currently pregnant and those who have recently given birth.

Yoga is effective in addressing infertility because it:

• promotes a healthy life style
• balances hormonal problems
• stimulates and strengthens the reproductive organs
• heightens awareness of the connection between your body and mind
• provides stress management and relaxation techniques

One of the many benefits of yoga is balance. Physical, emotional, hormonal, energetic, psychological, systemic… the list goes on. Your practice should be based on your needs. When a couple is trying to conceive, it is essential to take in to account the lifestyle, nutritional choices and personality of the individuals so that the right pace and style of practice can be chosen.

Particular yoga poses (asanas) can stimulate and balance the endocrine system, especially the ovaries, hypothalamus and pituitary glands. They can also strengthen reproductive organs. Structural and functional problems can be addressed as well by activating the reproductive organs.

Meditation, breathing and relaxation techniques promote a sense of peace, wellness and a greater connection to the self. In yogic philosophy, you are already whole; the practice leads you back to the experience of it!
