Book Reviews of Fully Fertile: A 12-Week Holistic Plan for Optimal Fertility

Book Review: Engages the mind and spirit, our strongest assets
Summary: 5 Stars

For anyone who believes in the power of the mind-body connection for healing, you'll find this book invaluable. In confronting my/our own infertility, I first did a lot of reading about diet, nutrition, and infertility treatments, all very helpful in their own way, most certainly. But I am convinced that this book.... this book... is what truly helped most. It not only addresses the physical aspects of maximizing fertility, it also lifts the reader to a strong place for braving the darkness of inner fears and failures, with the sense of being truly supported by women who know exactly what we the reader are going through.

The yoga routines were easy to learn (I consider myself a moderate beginner), and the visualization exercises were very liberating and very helpful for finding and freeing positive energy. I didn't get the chance to use this book for the full twelve weeks, (though I read most of it, I wished I had more time to really engage with all the material at a slower pace) before emarking on our second round of in vitro (IVF). I faced the treatment with more calm and peace and happiness than I knew was within me. My son was born a year ago, and I believe the good energy and mental state this book brought alive in me was instrumental in his arrival.

We're trying to have a second child now. Since I gave my original copy to the (wonderful) doctor who guided us through both IVF treatments, I am back online, looking for a replacment copy, and thought it was due time for me to write a review. There isn't another resource I remember as well or plan to look for this time around.
