Can yoga help fertility?
The stress associated with infertility can be lessened by adding the health-enhancing benefits of yoga to modern medical intervention. Fertility clinics recognise the benefits of complementary therapies such as yoga to enhance conception. There is a general sequence of yoga postures, breath, sound and meditation practices that, when practiced regularly, will help you to reduce high-stress levels that can inhibit the proper functioning of the endocrine (hormonal) system.
Scientists are studying the effects of stressful emotions on the body and mind and they have found that stress has physiological effects that will alter the balance of hormones in the body for both women and men - especially relating to fertility and preconception.
Reduce the fear, depression and stress resulting from hormonal imbalances.
Specific yoga practices promote the cooperation of the nervous, digestive, pulmonary, immune, skeletal, lymphatic, reproductive and endocrine systems. By tuning in all these subsystems we bring ourselves into harmony with our natural rhythms. The fertility yoga program brings the body into a state of relaxation that will enhance fertility and preconception health.
Overcome health conditions like PMS, painful or missing periods, flagging libido, PCOS, fibroids, endometriosis,etc.
Hormonal disorders can be a contributing cause of infertility. The practice of yoga can align your menstrual cycle with the moon rhythms thus increasing internal balance. The Fertility yoga program teaches you the yoga postures that can be practiced over the course of your menstrual cycle.
Accept and come to appreciate the weekly changes in your hormones, tuning into your menstrual cycle’s phases will guide you as to when to nourish, to create, to heal & to discover your gifts of insight.
