Sometimes we need help accomplishing our dreams. We reach a point in our lives when all we can think about is expanding our family. But, Mother Nature has other plans. This can be frustrating and depressing as the months go by and nothing happens. We start to doubt ourselves, our life partner and the stress just keeps piling up.
Studies have shown that one of the roadblocks that gets in the way on the road to conception is stress. Reduce the stress, help your body relax, open the door wider for Mother Nature to step in.
Fertility Yoga can offer a peaceful, calming atmosphere where each woman can feel comfortable to discuss their personal journey while stretching and breathing with others experiencing the some of the same things. There is nothing more freeing!
Since this program began in April 2011, we have had the joy of seeing FOUR of our ladies become pregnant and, in January 2012, the first Fertility Yoga baby was born! While there are no guarantees, we practice positive thinking and focusing on our goals and follow our dreams.
Mother's Embrace is pleased to receive referrals from Dr. Andrew Levi (reproductive specialist in Trumbull and Fairfield) and Dr. Gad Levy (reproductive specialist in Westport and Stamford)

GRADUATE TESTIMONIALS:
~ "I can't say enough about Mother's Embrace Fertility Yoga or Linda. It was such an amazing experience on every level.. physically, emotionally, socially and spiritually. When my husband and I were struggling with fertility issues, I felt isolated, sad and hopeless. With so many women getting pregnant with no problem, I couldn't help but wonder why not me? What was wrong with us? In my first class with Linda, I felt so much better about what I was going through. The gentle yoga allowed me to physically connect with the body that I felt was betraying me. Linda gave a voice to all the anxieties and worry that I was experiencing and speaking with other women in the class showed me that I was not alone.
When I suffered a miscarriage, Linda was so supportive in and out of class. The other women in the class were also understanding and helpful. She was able to make me feel positive again and recognize that this experience, although difficult and painful, was part of my journey. I remember the moment clearly when that lesson resonated with me. What Linda and Fertility Yoga helped me to do was to be able to live in the moment, be thankful for what I had, connect with others, look positively towards the future without anxiety. The best evidence of the effectiveness of Mother's Embrace Fertility Yoga is that I am now happily pregnant and in my 2nd trimester! I look forward to a happy and healthy pregnancy, labor and child. Mother's Embrace and Linda will always hold a special place in my heart." Misty G (2/8/12)
