Yoga techniques allow you to direct your full attention and focus on your body, your movement and your breathing. All of these combine to facilitate stress reduction and a feeling of being more aware of your body. This helps to realign and balance out your body’s systems. This is particularly beneficial for couples coping with infertility.
It may seem unusual that the performance of yoga postures can help you conceive, but many would agree it is true. Each yoga exercise focuses on a different area of your body. Some help to rebalance your hormones or glandular system while others increase the amount of blood flow to your organs, thereby stimulating and strengthening them. Meditation which is also a large part of Yoga aims to bring tranquility to your life and can be a great stress management technique. It is proven that stress can be a huge impediment when you are trying to conceive.
NewLife Fertility Centre offers individual, couple, and group yoga sessions to complement your fertility treatment by reducing stress and thus assisting you to achieve your goal of a pregnancy. Information about Yoga can be obtained from any of our staff members.

Why - Mind Body Program Important in Infertility ?
People who need medical help to build families and who are having Assisted Human Reproduction procedures feel high levels of social, emotional and relationship stress.Research has shown that the stress associated with fertility treatment can be at a level comparable to the stress associated with serious illness.
