MINDFULNESS AND MEDITATION

It’s a busy world. You fold the laundry while keeping one eye and ear on the kids and another on the television. You plan your day while listening to the radio and commuting to work, and then plan your weekend while rushing about completing work tasks. Rushing to do this and to do that… rushing to get here and to get there… rushing, rushing, rushing…but in the rush to accomplish necessary tasks, you may find yourself losing your connection with the present moment—missing out on what you’re doing right now and how you’re feeling in this moment.

Factor in our fast-paced and constantly shifting world where we are faced with an onslaught of information and stimulation and media coming at us! In our lives of instant and often chaotic communication and social media, it’s more important than ever to develop and nurture regular awareness-based practices that promote our fully engaged awareness, wakefulness, compassion, and wisdom.

Our busy-ness and preoccupation means that most people are not fully present and engaged in their life. They simply are not really THERE a lot of the time. Instead, your mind is caught up in your worries, your fears, your anger, your regrets… You are not mindful of being in the moment; rather, you are caught up in the past or in the future. You are not there in the present moment; you are not living your life deeply with joy and happiness.

The opposite of this is mindfulness. Mindfulness is when you are truly present, mind and body together in the moment. You breathe in and out mindfully, your mind is there with your body, and you are established in the present moment. Then, you can recognize and celebrate the many conditions of abundance, joy, and happiness that are in you and around you… and serenity and contentment and happiness just come naturally.

MINDFULNESS IMPROVES WELLBEING

Increasing your capacity for mindfulness supports many attitudes that contribute to a satisfied life.

Being mindful makes it easier to savor the pleasures in life as they occur, helps you become fully engaged in activities, and creates a greater capacity to deal with adverse events.

By focusing on the here and now, many people who practice mindfulness find that they are less likely to get caught up in worries about the future or regrets over the past, are less preoccupied with concerns about success and self-esteem, and are better able to form deep connections with others.

MINDFULNESS IMPROVES PHYSICAL HEALTH

If greater well-being isn’t enough of an incentive, scientists have discovered the benefits of mindfulness techniques help improve physical health in a number of ways. Mindfulness can:

* help relieve stress

* treat heart disease

* lower blood pressure

* reduce chronic pain

* improve sleep

* alleviate gastrointestinal difficulties

MINDFULNESS IMPROVES MENTAL HEALTH

In recent years, psychotherapists have turned to mindfulness meditation as an important element in the treatment of a number of problems, including:

* depression

* substance abuse

* eating disorders

* couples’ conflicts

* anxiety disorders

* obsessive-compulsive disorder

MINDFULNESS IS THE ENERGY

that empowers us to recognize the conditions of abundance and happiness that are already present in our lives. You don’t have to wait ten years to experience this happiness. It is present in every moment of your daily life. There are those of us who are alive but do not know it. To be mindfully present in the moment is to touch the miracle of being alive!

NEUROLINQUISTIC PROGRAMMING

HYPNOFERTILITY

Decrease the emotional effects of infertility…

Reduce stress, anxiety, and depression that can result from trying to conceive……

Increase fertility.

It’s Conceivable!

Gerald Trobough, M.D., a California Ob/Gyn and fertility expert: “We know what hypnosis can do for such things as child birth or pain control; it’s only a matter of time before hypnotic infertility applications are universally accepted,” he says.

“You can’t ignore the impact of stress on the body or the mind,” says Dr. Jon Shick of Mile High Family Medicine (Lakewood, CO). “I’ve seen what hypnosis can do first hand—it works.”

Dr. Alice Domar, the author of Conquering Infertility, has been published in several important journals, such as Fertility & Sterility (1990 and 2000) and the Journal of the American Medical Women’s Association (1999). She emphasizes “mind/body” techniques that include self-hypnotic suggestions to reduce stresses that interfere with conception and healthy pregnancy.

see more of Dr. Domar's research here

Dr. Gayle Peterson, a pioneer in the field of mind/body states and their effects on fertility, pregnancy, and birthing, has developed a technique called Body-Centered Hypnosis. Dr. Peterson has found that high anxiety states in the mother must be reduced in order to normalize pregnancy and birth. She sites several research studies that suggest a positive link between fertility and treatments based on hypnosis.

A recent Israeli study showed that the success rate of IVF treatments doubled in his test group from 14% to 28%, when the subjects underwent hypnosis during implantation. Professor Eliahu Levitas conducted this study with 185 women.

At the Institute of Applied Psychology in Lisbon Portugal, a team of researchers led by Katharina Hirschenhauser has concluded that men who actively want to be fathers automatically adjust their testosterone levels at exactly the right time (the middle of their partners’ menstrual cycles). Perhaps there is no better hypnotic suggestion for a male partner than the idea that he wants to become a father.

Dr. Ernest L. Rossi specializes in psychobiology, or the relationship between the mind and physical body states. He has done extensive research to suggest that human genes must be in a state of physical readiness for conception to take place, and that hypnotic-type suggestions can activate specific genes, including the IL-1, c-fos, and the CYP17 in a specific order.

“One of the key components (in addressing infertility) is stress reduction,” says Dr. Mark Bush of Colorado’s Conceptions Reproductive Center. “There is a definite link between hormones released in the brain and decreasing a woman’s ability to release an egg,” he says.

When you’re ready to welcome a child into your life, each monthly cycle can feel like an eternity. All the while, the stress of waiting, wondering, and worrying can actually interfere with natural fertility, making it even more challenging to conceive as time moves on.

The effects of stress upon the reproductive process are profound. Stress and anxiety act directly upon the endocrine system of our bodies, disrupting the hormonal balance necessary for successful conception and a healthy pregnancy. Unresolved emotional issues and fears can also disrupt fertility and act as barriers to conceiving.

Women experiencing fertility challenges have reported levels of stress and grief that are comparable to those battling life-threatening conditions. The impact of fertility struggles on relationships, emotional well-being, and self-esteem can carry couples into even deeper despair.

And yet, if you have arrived at this site, there must be an inner voice within you that is carrying a note of hope, a feeling that your body is capable of creating and nurturing the child that you desire, and a belief that there IS a baby for you. This program honors that quiet voice within and provides powerful tools to help you to realize that hope, that feeling, that belief.

Hypnosis for Fertility (HypnoFertility™) can help to end the cycle of disappointment and distress and to break through fertility barriers. HypnoFertility™ is a powerful and effective program for enhancing natural fertility through hypnosis.

This unique program guides you to easily access that relaxed and harmonious state that opens the door to conception. Whether your goal is to conceive naturally or to receive support while undergoing IVF or other medical procedures, HypnoFertility™ is a powerful, precise program which supports the entire fertility process for optimal results.

Hypnosis can transform the fear and frustration you may have been experiencing into self-empowerment and a sense of physical, mental, and emotional well-being. It can help to create the foundation to enable you to achieve the natural inner harmony required for a calm, peaceful, positive, and viable pregnancy.

Whether you wish to conceive naturally, or with medical assistance, the Fertility by Hypnosis®program can certainly increase your chance of success. During the course of sessions, you will learn the tools of self-empowerment as you tap into the power of the subconscious mind. This easily leads to real chemical changes in the brain that, in turn, can manifest in suitable conditions for conception.

The desire to have a child is a desire unlike any other. It is truly my honor to work with those experiencing challenges in becoming pregnant to help them in realizing that wonder-filled desire and welcoming their babies into being! My greatest joy is getting that excited phone call from yet another ecstatic and expectant parent-to-be. I want to get that call from you!
