How Yoga Can Help Fertility

The most common causes of female infertility include fallopian tube damage or blockage, hormone imbalances, endometriosis, ovulation disorders, early menopause, benign uterine tumors and pelvic scar tissue. Additionally, stress has physiological effects that alter the balance of hormones in the body - especially relating to fertility.

Yoga can help women trying to conceive in a number of ways. Restorative yoga enables the body, mind and spirit to learn the art of relaxation. It has the following benefits, which can improve fertility:

- Reduces stress, anxiety and depression
- Balances hormones
- Increases circulation to reproductive organs
- Improves the flow of energy through the body
- Opens the hip and pelvic areas

With balanced hormones and energy and a relaxed mind, you are more likely to become pregnant and sustain a healthy pregnancy.

Did you know that the stress and anxiety of trying to get pregnant actually decreases your chances of getting pregnant?

It might seem like a cruel joke, but it's true. Your body only believes it's "safe" to get pregnant when you're relaxed and calm.

One of the best ways to relax your body and mind for pregnancy is through yoga. There's a new eBook out called "Yoga For Conception", written by a certified yoga instructor and therapist, Cory Sipper. After a year and a half of failed attempts to get pregnant and fertility treatments, she turned to yoga relaxation techniques. Cory now has two beautiful children and credits yoga for her success.

If you've been having trouble conceiving a child and are stressed, anxious or depressed, you should check out the eBook. Cory describes a relaxing breathing technique and a series of poses designed to relax your body and mind. She even includes a free beginner's guide to yoga and mediation and 17 free video training clips on how to do the poses she recommends.
