Fertility Yoga

It is estimated that one in 6 couples in modern Ireland will have fertility issues while trying for a baby. This can be devastating for both parties but particularly for the women hoping to conceive as it is their body that will be under particular scrutiny during this journey, whether they are trying to conceive naturally or using assisted reproductive technology.

This specially designed Yoga class will offer a safe, supportive space for women trying to conceive who are experiencing issues with fertility or who simply wish to support and nourish their natural fertility. The workshop is designed to help decrease stress, worry and anxiety and to promote optimal health in body and mind. It is suitable for all women who are trying to conceive, whether you are under-going assisted reproductive treatment or trying to conceive naturally. You do not need to have previous yoga experience.

There is a growing body of evidence suggesting that Yoga can be beneficial for supporting fertility. There are a number of ways that this extended class can help you on your fertility journey.

The class is held every few weeks and includes breathing techniques, gentle yoga poses, fertility-based visualisations and affirmations and a deeply relaxing meditation practice called Yoga Nidra.

You will receive a home practice manual so you can continue at home in between classes. All the poses practiced are also safe to perform in the two-week wait and early pregnancy.

The most important aspect to these classes is the provision of a nurturing and supportive environment for women. Unfortunately, infertility is still very much a taboo subject in Ireland and that secrecy can add to the stress and sense of isolation at an already difficult time. Here you will have the chance to chat openly and share tips, advice and support with other women who are also trying to conceive. This sense of community can facilitate healing on a deep spiritual level.

I am a yoga teacher with over 13 years experience and I have completed specific yoga training in the area of Fertility with international teachers Sue Domais and Uma Dimsmore. I have also personal experience of infertility so you are in safe hands with me.
