Fertile Ground: A mind-body approach to getting pregnant - without it taking over your life.

Episode 154 - From Type-A to Ommm: How yoga can set you FREE with Jen Edmonds


Listen Later

I know what you’re thinking.   Yoga? For fertility?   How the hell is lying on a mat and breathing supposed to help when you get pregnant when you're not even breaking a sweat? When every part of you feels like you need to be doing more, trying harder, pushing through?   That’s exactly why I invited Jennifer Edmunds onto the Fertile Ground Podcast—to flip the script on what the 5000 year old 🤯 practice of yoga is really about. (dude that’s SO old!)   When Jen was TTC, she used yoga –  not as a means to an end – but as a way to slow down the urgency, come back to the power of her body, and—shockingly—to do less to create more.   She shares how yoga helps her and the women she works with, to regulate their nervous system, regulate their cycles, and get pregnant after loss and IVF.   My favorite part? She calls out the BS of pushing through the ebbs and flows of your monthly cycle like a goddamn man. Newsflash: You’re not supposed to have energy all month long. She teaches you why honoring your body’s cycles makes you more powerful—not less.   She breaks down: 🤰The numerous different diagnoses she had and eventually, still was able to create 2 beautiful children. 🧘‍♀️ Alternative ways to measure progress on your fertility journey that actually make you feel like you’re killin’ it. ⚡️ Why more effort isn’t always the answer (and how that mindset is draining you). 💥 How yoga teaches you to respond to pain instead of fear it. This episode is exactly what you need if you’re sick of feeling like you’re never doing enough.   Listen now 🎧   Let’s disrupt the hustle.
