Nurture fertility, naturally.
The journey of motherhood is a sacred experience, a cosmic dance between the mother and her child. The power of consciousness plays a vital role in every stage of this journey, from conception to postpartum.
Before conception, the mother and father's combined consciousness sets the stage for the new life. The environment, diet, and overall well-being of the mother contribute to the formation of a healthy and vibrant baby. A calm mind, a strong body, and a nourished spirit are essential for a harmonious pregnancy.
By nurturing your mind, body, and soul, you can create a nurturing environment for your child to thrive. Let’s consider here a couple of factors that influence your fertility and the conception process:
Pre-conception Principles:
Mutual consent and planning: leave room for open conversation and planning so that you and your partner’s hearts and minds are aligned before another being is created. This is really going to help remove added stress that can come into a situation that is very transformative in the lives of everyone.
Health of prospective parents: establishing proper balance of the mind and body prior to conceiving will help create a healthy environment for a fetus to enter. Practicing meditation, pranayama (breathing practices), gentle yoga asanas, and behavioral rasayanas will promote mental health while consuming a balanced diet, moderately exercising, considering a Ayurvedic rejuvenation program (ask me for details!), or Panchakarma will help prepare the physical body for growing a baby.
Advice for parents: wish for a healthy, happy, enlightened child. Stay rested. Practice meditation. Pursue activity that brings happiness. Rejuvenation procedures to remove toxins in the physiology.
Diet for Parents-to-Be
Foods that increase purity of body and mind: consuming naturally sweet, unctuous, rich, and nourishing foods
Foods to enjoy: almonds (preferably soaked to enhance digestion), asparagus, avocados, coconut, figs, dates, raisins, ghee, non-homogenized milk, cream, and yogurt, okra, pomegranates, pumpkins, rice pudding, sweet potatoes, etc.
