Transformational Retreats for Women desiring a deeper alignment with Self and a richer, more joyful experience of life.
Our thoughts, feelings and beliefs have a direct impact on our biology. The healing of unresolved emotional issues frees our heart and with that our creative force. Becoming a mother is a very powerful creative experience and requires most of our energy to be in present time. The emotions held in the body, from grief to sadness to anger and blame, create resistance to the natural flow of life. It is essential that we do not ask Why this is happening to us and rather How do I move through this experience with my essential Self intact. To support both allopathic and complementary medical treatments for any physical issues related to infertility, it is important to look into the emotions that arise from experiences related to fertility or even limiting patterns from your past. Remember, you have done nothing wrong, you are not being punished, and life is definitely not fair. Our essential self must have the freedom to breathe, to speak, to be sad and angry, to create. The conditioned responses from previous pain and from past events as well as familial patterns remain locked in our subconscious minds until we do the deep personal self reflection that shines a light on what might be blocking us from our true heart’s desires.
A common message to women going through fertility struggles is that they should remain positive. I find this just adds more pressure on the women. Naturally a constant negative attitude is detrimental to the creative process, however, it is more important to be true to what you are really feeling and focus on staying present, rather than lost in pain and regret from the past or fear of failure in the future.
