Belief: The Key To Success & Healing

Elizabeth Willett - M.A., Certified Herbalist
July 17, 2021
Reviewed by Christine Traxler, MD

Do you ever think about how your beliefs attract to you what you desire?

Have you been trying to get pregnant with no known reason as to why it hasn’t happened? Have you been battling a fertility health issue with all of the tools you can find but still deal with a certain symptom, or the issue has yet to go away? If so, it may be time to check in with your beliefs.

Natural therapies and the idea that the mind has a powerful influence on health are no strangers to controversy. We see, however that both are becoming more and more accepted as valid elements of many health programs, especially the programs of couples battling infertility.

For some couples, allopathic medicine has failed to find a reason why they are not able to conceive. Their fertility treatments didn’t result in the desired outcome, have failed, or have become too expensive to even entertain the idea of trying. They begin seeking natural ways to support the body, so they can reach their fertility goals. Thankfully, they find us.

When they find us, many still ask the question, “Does this really work?” I often have a hard time answering this question because I know I can’t just reply, “Yes! If you believe it will!” However, this answer is the truth!

Herbs, nutritional supplements, and natural therapies do work if you set yourself up for success. You do this by committing to using them, making dietary and lifestyle changes, and choosing the best ones for your needs. This is especially true IF all the while you believe that…

  • they have the ability to help your body heal and be balanced
  • your body is responding to their benefits
  • you deserve to heal and be balanced
  • you are fertile

 

“What beliefs we hold about our body, our fertility, and about becoming a mother may have an impact on becoming pregnant.” ~ Hethir Rodriguez

 

While I want you to trust me and take my word for it, it may help to hear it from our customers and clients who have shared their fertility success stories. A common theme resonates through each story – each person had faith in themselves and the ability of their bodies to be healthy. They believed in their natural fertility programs and that they deserved to achieve their goals.

So, what is belief?

Beliefs are things – ideas, truths – each of us chooses personally, based our individual perceptions, what we are taught, and our life experiences. As defined by Merriam-Webster:

Belief
Noun | be·lief | \bə-ˈlēf\
: a feeling of being sure that someone or something exists or that something is true
: a feeling that something is good, right, or valuable
: a feeling of trust in the worth or ability of someone

The human ability to form beliefs that shape our reality is thought to be the one human super power. “If your beliefs are in fact that powerful — that they will literally dictate your reality — then it is worth the time to reconcile the reality you desire with the beliefs you hold and then foster the development of your belief in the reality you want.” ~Inspired Abundance

Are your beliefs dictating your fertility reality?

Answering this question may take some quiet time for reflection. Grab a pencil and your fertility journal to help record your reflections. This will help you transform beliefs you learn are no longer serving you.

Ask yourself these questions and jot down your answers (more than just a yes or no). Start each answer by thinking or writing, “I believe…” and then fill in your answer.

  • Do you believe your body can heal?
  • Do you believe your body is fertile?
  • Do you believe the herbs, supplements, natural therapies, diet you eat, daily exercise, and stress-reduction techniques you are using are all helping your body?
  • Do you believe you are loved?
  • Do you believe you deserve to be a mother (or father) – a parent?
  • Do you believe you have the power to change your reality?
  • Do you believe you will overcome your infertility?
  • Do you believe you will rid yourself of your fertility health issue?
  • Do you believe you deserve to achieve your goals?

Now, think about where each answer, each belief, comes from. Can you pinpoint the first time you thought about this belief or heard someone mention something like it to you?

Next, do you agree with this belief? Do you think this belief serves you and your fertility goals? If you have found some beliefs that no longer serve you, now is the time to transform each of those beliefs into a truth that will serve you. There are many Mind and Body Therapies for Fertility to consider trying, although one very helpful way to transform beliefs is to create positive affirmations.

The art of creating positive affirmations will help you change your thoughts and self-talk to benefit, empower, and heal your fertility. We offer two wonderful resources to teach yourself to create affirmations, our guides to:

4 Steps to Creating Affirmations for a Positively Fertile Life
Affirmations for Fertility, Changing Your Thoughts to Help Change Your Fertility

 

“Without you even necessarily being conscious of them, your beliefs tend to govern what you do, what you aim for, and how you feel about yourself and your possibilities.” ~ Inspired Abundance

 

If you believe the support you are offering your body, mind and spirit is effective, and if it makes you feel physically/emotionally/psychologically better, then it’s working! I believe you can see each change – big and small – your body is making to heal. I believe you will reach your fertility-health goals! I believe your time is now!

Moving forward, think about the areas of your life in which you see evidence of the power of your beliefs. We would love to hear stories of how your beliefs have led you through your fertility journey! You are welcome to share them in the comments section below.

To make an impact on your health, you will need to first learn the actions and steps to take... then you will need to be consistent with those actions. It is the consistency that brings you the results. You are going to be human and not be perfect 100% of the time. Just accept that and get back to it. Consistency, day in and out, is more important than being perfect. You can't be 100% perfect for long, but you can be consistent every day.

If you’ve undergone many consecutive fertility treatments without a successful pregnancy, it could be time for a break. Taking a break gives your body a chance to cleanse, reset and recover. Relief from the side effects and stress could be exactly what you need for a fresh start for your fertility journey.

Use the time to work on yourself- mind and body. A break might even give you the opportunity to find a new sense of peace or a new version of your fertility program.

I knew what my life's calling was at a very young age. At around 16, I had a dream where a dreadlocked rasta man came to me (Burning Spears to be exact) and in that dream was told that I was to be a healer. It was the type of dream that was more real than reality. The next day I woke up feeling different than I had ever felt before. Later on that day, we had new neighbors move into the house above us and a woman came and introduced herself. When I opened the door, she said her name and told me she was opening up a school of healing and that I was to be one of her students. It was one of the most intense series of events in my life. I went on to go to her school and my path started with an amazing community and so much support. What are one of the most life changing experiences you have had? I would love to hear...

Stress can be one of the primary factors behind infertility. Believe it or not, our bodies are equipped to prevent conception from occurring during times of extreme stress. The presence of adrenaline, the hormone that is released by our bodies during stressful times, signals to our body that conditions are not ideal for conception. Adrenaline inhibits us from utilizing the hormone progesterone, which is essential for fertility. It also causes the pituitary gland to release higher levels of prolactin, which also causes infertility to occur.
