Learning to Receive During Infertility
“The trauma of just going through fertility struggles is enough to warrant needing rest and relaxation.”
Topics Discussed:
🦩 Learn to give yourself space and time to heal.
🦩 Surrender any shame or guilt you have about needing rest.
🦩 The importance of being open to the receiving aspect of your journey.
If you’re a type A woman like myself, you probably don’t know how to slow down and relax, do you? Learning to relax and receive is probably one of your hardest and most uncomfortable things. But to heal your physical and mental health and overcome infertility, you must force yourself to do what’s uncomfortable.
In this episode of the Finding Fertility podcast, I talk about the power of learning how to slow down, relax, and receive. I explain why you need to surrender any shame and guilt about needing rest and start healing.
Listen in to learn how to put boundaries and honor yourself to be able to achieve your fertility goals.
“The more you’re able to slow down, rest, recover, and receive, you will be able to get in tune with where you should go next.”
