Fertility Yoga: What it is and how it can improve your chances of conception
Description
Most people have heard of yoga, but perhaps not specific to fertility. Fertility yoga is a comprehensive methodology that incorporates an array of mind-body practices. At its foundational core is yoga, specific to fertility. However, the method also includes breathwork, meditation & mindfulness, acupressure, Ayurveda, and functional nutrition. It also addresses the emotional components present when trying to conceive (TTC). In today's episode, we talk to Wendy Obstler, a yoga therapist, all about this practice and how it can help improve our chances at conception.
Drawing from Eastern and Western yoga/wellness teachings, Wendy Obstler is a Yoga Therapist & Founder of Divine Spark Yoga and Living Lēla, LLC. She has co-created Soulful Conceptions™ with her business partner, Dr. Deborah Anderson (Health & Neuropsychologist/ Yoga Teacher). Both Deborah and Wendy have each experienced fertility & pregnancy challenges. As a result, they know the power of having a mind-body toolkit and community support to navigate the journey of conception with more ease.
