Holding space for conception: Catherine's experience

It's National Infertility Awareness Week. I invited past and present fertility clients to share their experiences receiving non-medical fertility support.

"Fertility support should include both mind and body. Emotional and energetic work can be just as helpful as medical supports, especially when there is no clear medical reason for infertility.

Having Michelle support me after a pregnancy loss and subsequent difficulty conceiving was invaluable. I conceived my son after a personal and emotional break through due to months of energy work during reiki and reflexology sessions. I would not have been able to make this growth without her support."

Every journey is so unique. Every client moves through their pieces at a pace that serves them well. To come out of a reproductive journey with a clear knowing of why, is the greatest gift of all. As fertility doulas, fertility support people. facilitators of healing, we are a guide to walk with our clients as they unfold the mysteries of their personal story. We can shine a little light here and there, and hold space for the beautiful transformation.

If you are a fertility client and you would like to share some of your experience receiving non-medical holistic fertility support, you can submit your experience or feedback here. If you are interested in learning how to hold this space for others, please visit the training section of this website.
