Fertility yoga uses specific body poses, breathing techniques and guided imagery to help strengthen the reproductive organs, help the body to be in proper alignment (essential for proper positioning of the reproductive organs, especially the uterus), prepare the entire body for the hard work of carrying a baby, as well as labor and birth, supports the hormonal feedback loop, greatly helps to reduce stress, and helps you to focus on manifesting healing and getting pregnant. Fertility yoga is also beneficial for men. Through this practice you work to tone and stretch the muscles, focus breathing, and clear the mind. It is one of the best overall exercises and stress reduction techniques for both men and women! This make it ideal as an exercise practice partners can do together.

Yoga can also be used in conjunction with a Fertility Cleanse; helping to support the cleansing and rejuvenation process in the body.

Ways Fertility Yoga is beneficial for healing and pregnancy preparation:

• “Resets” your endocrine system and balances your hormones
• May help to clear adhesions and blockages in the reproductive areas
• Increases circulation to the reproductive organs
• Supports a healthy immune system and supports the body in detoxifying
• Brings peace and vitality to your conception journey
• Creates an environment of clarity and self exploration

We have had quite a few people write in and say that they really want to make fertility yoga a habit. There are two popular fertility-specific Yoga programs to consider:

• The Fertility Yoga Program e-Book
• Restoring Fertility – Yoga for Optimal Fertility

  Below is a quick guide to each individual program. One is not better than the other, they are just a little bit different and may suit a person’s unique needs in different ways. It may be that you end up using more than one of them, combining and making the fertility yoga practices individualized over time.

  Beginning a Fertility Yoga Practice

  As with any new exercise program it can be difficult to get into a routine. It can be a bit straining on your body and time management skills. As we all know, diet and exercise are the foundation for good health. So learning a new exercise practice may seem tough at first, but if you are consistent with it your will see huge changes in your health over time. Remember to get 30 minutes of exercise a day, 5 times a week. Fertility Yoga is one of the best ways to support reproductive health, reduce stress in your life and prepare for pregnancy. Do not be hard on yourself if your poses are not identical to the instructor. Over time, with practice your strength, flexibility and balance will improve dramatically! It may be best to begin this practice at your own pace. Begin by doing Fertility Yoga 2-3 times a week, increase to 5 times a week if you would like.
