Fertility Yoga
|
Lauren’s fertility yoga class was extremely helpful for me. It can be really lonely in your fertility journey but the group discussions made me realize that I am not alone and that my feelings are completely valid and normal. Lauren also has a lot of great resources and tips to share that I was previously unaware of. At the end of the yoga class, I was always left feeling completely zen and relaxed – a state that I need to experience more! I would definitely recommend this class to anyone who is struggling to conceive, needs more relaxation time and a support network!

"The fertility journey is a difficult and lonely path. Between feelings of shame, inadequacy, and misunderstanding, it was very comforting and soothing to meet Lauren. Her soft, genuine and positive approach has brought me confidence, acceptance, and hope. Lauren brings a fine balance between heart, head and soul, and somehow, her practice helps align all three. I am very grateful to have found such good, personalized and devoted help. Thank you Lauren! :) "

FERTILITY YOGA
What is fertility yoga?:
Fertility yoga is similar in style to restorative yoga where postures are held for long periods of time using props (bolsters, blankets, blocks) so that the muscles may completely relax. The postures practiced help promote increased circulation in the reproductive organs at the same time as bringing balance to the endocrine (hormonal) system. Fertility yoga is also therapeutic for the nervous system as it encourages the relaxation response, bringing you out of “fight or flight mode” and into “rest and digest mode”. My classes all include breathwork, asanas (yoga postures), affirmations, and guided meditations.
When you join this series you will also gain access to my private Fertility Support Facebook group to receive support in-between classes.
Who is this series for?
This series open to ALL people with a womb who are thinking about becoming pregnant, actively trying to conceive, or currently undergoing ART (artificial reproduction technologies)
More details about the class:
- Our yoga practice is every Tuesday from 5:45-6:45pm from July 7 - August 18 (with a break on July 14th). In the event that I have to miss a class due to a birth (I am also a birth doula) or an illness August 25th will be the makeup class.
- You don't need any special yoga props, just a yoga mat, a few blankets and pillows. You have the option to keep your camera off for your privacy during the class, and you will always have access to the replay for 1 week after the class.
- No previous experience with yoga is necessary.

"Joining the fertility listening circle is a great way to talk about your struggles along your fertility journey in a safe space and to connect to women who are in a similar situation. Lauren is a great mentor and will provide you with tools and resources to improve your mindset and well-being. Thank you, Lauren, for this great experience! You have set me on the path to a more hopeful and optimistic journey!"

"Lauren a su créer un espace pour que toute femme, peu importe les problèmes d'infertilité qu'elle a croisé sur son chemin, puisse se retrouver et se reconnecter à son corps. Elle nous aide à retrouver une simplicité dans cette quête et une joie malgré les difficultés que l'on y rencontre. Je le recommande chaudement à toute femme voulant prendre une pause, un moment pour elle, reprendre des forces, s'inspirer pour poursuivre dans cette aventure!"

"Going to the group gave me a time during the week to focus on myself and connect with others who are going through the same worries. The yoga and meditation exercises really helped me get my zen back and it was something that I looked forward to every week. Lauren draws on so many different approaches and the great thing about that is that I now have many tools that I can use on my own to help myself cope better."

" Les rencontres en petit groupe offertes par Lauren m'ont permis de sortir de l'isolement qui accompagne les traitements en fertilité. Pouvoir rencontrer et échanger avec d'autres femmes, dans des parcours semblables, m'a permis de prendre conscience de certains blocages qui me pesaient et de commencer à travailler dessus pour les dépasser et vivre mon parcours en fertilité avec davantage de sérénité et de résilience. La pratique qui suit l'heure d'échanges et de conseils, inclut des postures de yoga et une méditation guidée et favorise un état de relaxation durable. Je recommande particulièrement cette série de rencontres à toutes celles qui se sentent seules dans leur parcours et qui ont besoin de soutien pour continuer à avancer."
