She educated herself about every aspect of fertility and worked with her husband and doctors to find a solution. The ending of her story will surprise you!

Townsend-Smith understands the pains of struggling with fertility, and she hopes that her insight will bring you comfort during a difficult time. If you internalize her five ways to cope with your struggle to conceive, she's confident that you will be on the road to processing your feelings and moving forward on your own journey.

Rising like a phoenix each time she hit a roadblock, forms an integral part of her narrative. The book concludes with many learnings and takeaways.

Download or read book Your Journey Towards Fertility written by Janice N Njie and published by . This book was released on 2020-09-29 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book was birth in the course of helping women to spiritually deal with their challenge of infertility. It is also a call to share the story of my fertility journey with other women and help them find some encouragement and courage in the face of their own struggles. Fertility is not just a matter of biological science. It is a spiritual journey involving the fulfillment of one of our creator's design for our lives as human beings and as a race. Therefore our arch enemy the devil is deeply interested in how, why and when we procreate as human beings. There will always be some scientific explanations as to the whys certain things happen in our lives. However, we all know that our human science at its best has numerous limitations and a lot is still left to guess work while researches are ongoing. When it comes to the issue of infertility, a lot is left to the unknown. Even at its best, fertility medicine has a huge chasm of unanswered questions. It is said that the science can answer questions from when and how eggs and sperms are produced, how fertilization takes place, and so on. But the science still cannot fully explain the miracle of conception. The two weeks after Embryo transfer (implantation period) in fertility treatment will always be left to the unknown and shrouded in mystery. The war over the continuity and sustenance of the human race is a very fierce one. And the devil is doing all he can, using every possible means to interfere with how humans obey the divine mandate of procreation. As human beings, we must begin to ask critical questions before adopting everything offered to us in the name of scientific solutions. My prayer is that we will begin to look beyond the natural and also see the supernatural /spiritual dimensions attached to the battle over human procreation. And therefore as we pursue the various options as solutions, we bring in the God factor that always makes the ultimate difference in our quest for fertility health and wellness.God bless you!

Maybe you have endometriosis. Maybe you don’t have enough eggs or your partner doesn’t have enough sperm. Or maybe there’s nothing wrong except you’re Just. Not. Pregnant. Amy Klein has been there. Faced with fertility obstacles, she quickly became an expert.

Download or read book Spiritual Fertility written by Dr. Julie Von and published by Hay House, Inc. This book was released on 2019-07-16 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “The dynamic spark that is responsible for creating each new human being cannot be reduced to a mass of cells and biochemical processes. There is a deeper mystery at play that women who are struggling with fertility can tap into.” This book explains how to use the tools of spirituality and psychology to relax the endocrine system, change your perspective, and get pregnant. Everyone is fertile; however, our common standards for measuring fertility are faulty. Today, our currently accepted narratives around fertility offer much in the way of diagnosis, but little in the way of customized care and consideration of a woman's entire mind, body, and spirit. The dynamic spark responsible for creating each new human being cannot be reduced to a mass of cells and biochemical processes. There is a deeper mystery at play, one that women struggling with fertility can tap into. In this ground-breaking book, holistic fertility doctor Dr. Julie Von shows women a new way to approach fertility so that the entire experience of becoming pregnant is energetically uplifting. She shares tools and techniques that help nourish and build women's receptive energy to connect to the spiritual and unseen aspects of creating life. Dr. Von helps readers understand that principles of cosmic timing can be applied to all processes having to do with fertility and child-rearing, from freezing eggs, to conceiving, to choosing to adopt. With close to 20 years of clinical experience, Dr. Von has witnessed firsthand the power of the spiritual within fertility to balance the hormonal system and promote a healthy pregnancy.
