Intention Setting
Today's lesson is all about the powerful practice of Intention Setting. First, we get clear about why you want to have a baby. The reasons might seem very obvious, but today we will explore some of the subtleties and find ways to allow them to filter into other areas of your life.

Understanding The Depths Of Fear
Drawing on mindfulness techniques around fear and longing, we will come to recognise what you most fear in terms of becoming (or not becoming) a parent. The key intention is to consider releasing the fears that may be holding you back. Together, we will do a gentle meditation that invites you to acknowledge your fears and breathe with them.
Les 3
Control Patterns
In today's lesson we will explore the psychological patterning of control, why we do it (ie. to create safety in situations that feel unsafe), and how to shift behaivoural patterns that may not be benefiting us. This lesson will give us practical steps to pause and breathe when feeling the patterning of control, offering us ways to find a sense of release.
Les 4
Embracing The Mystery
There is no doubt that fertility is a deeply mysterious process. Today we will talk about the mystery behind fertility and sit in awe of these processes. This lesson explores how we can embrace the unknown; turning towards the mystery instead of away from it.
Les 5
Surrender
Letting go allows us to be free. When we can acknowledge our biggest fears and surrender to them, we can better navigate important life choices. In this lesson, we will learn about the art of surrender and how to apply it to the most tender of fertility situations. Surrendering is a way to let go and relax our entire bodies.
Les 6
Connecting With Community
Today we connect to the external community of all the women facing similar struggles. Together, we are powerful, we are strong, we lean on each other. In community we are held and supported. This lesson invites us to explore who the 'support people' are in our lives and how we can open up to receiving support in the ways we need it most. Many people that love us don’t know what to say or how to say it. Today's meditation practice helps us allow their support.

Befriending Your Body
In today's lesson we talk about the importance of being “friends” with the body as you journey through the fertility process. Often in this process, the mind wants one thing and the body feels as thought it isn’t “complying.” This lesson teaches us how the mind and body can work as a team rather than adversaries. Through a powerful guided imagery meditation you’ll be asked to offer kindness and affirmations to your body even when it isn’t conceiving on your time schedule.
Les 8
Mastering Coping Statements (Or Mantras) To Support You
The journey can be long, it can be painful. We know this. Taking care of yourself is an important piece to this journey. This lesson invites you to master coping statements and mantras to support you day by day in your fertility journey. You will be asked "what do I need to remember the most as I wait"? You will be guided through this process with a brief meditation and then asked to write down some words you can use daily and weekly to support yourself.
Les 9
Boundaries, Social Pressure & Self Care
When people in our lives become pregnant, there is often expectation of celebration and excitement. For those of us struggling to become pregnant, we may have challenges connecting with joy. In today's lesson we learn to consider our own limitations and release our guilt associated with taking care of ourselves socially. You will also be guided on how to handle loved ones who may not understand our pain.

Conceiving More Than You Bargained For
This course is different from many fertility resources because it’s more about you than anything else. However your fertility journey goes, you will need resources to deal with stress, internal and external pressure, and the inner controller. This final lesson combines all that we’ve learned in the course so far and connect you back to your infinite worthiness. This lesson is filled with loving kindness and guided imagery that seeks to connect you back to your larger purpose and empower you in a profound way.
