When I see women who want to become pregnant, usually the biggest thing that they say, is that they need to relax. They often have busy and stressful lives and the focus is often on what is not happening, which in itself can increase stress further and get in the way of their intention to conceive. Often they are told by friends, family and even health professionals, that if they “just relax it will happen” and many say they are sick of hearing this. Their conscious mind probably knows that if they were more relaxed, that their body would probably be in a better position to conceive…..but just telling them to “relax” means very little if deep down inside, most of their body is in tension and producing stress hormones.
Many need to relax at a deeper level than just the conscious mind. The subconscious mind is far more powerful than the conscious mind. By using any therapy that induces deep relaxation e.g hypnosis and reflexology, this may enhance the chances of a conception occurring. These therapies aim to relax physically, mentally and emotionally.
Reduced fertility is often made up of a combination of factors, but it is always well worth reducing stress and increasing relaxation, not just to enhance fertility but for life in general and for positive health and well being.
