GETTING PREGNANT - HYPNOSIS FOR FERTILITY
Tired of being told to stop trying so hard and let it happen? How do you get to that special place that makes conception a likely, natural occurrence?

Hypnotherapy has been shown increase natural conception by 30% and double the rate of success of assisted conception (IUI or IVF). Hypnotherapy represents a safe and powerful way of increasing fertility either as a sole therapy in cases of “unexplained infertility” or in combination with fertility treatments such as IVF, IUI and fertility medications. This specialist HypnoFertility® programme is tailored to each individual couple, by working with psychological factors, physiological factors, current and past fertility treatments, conception history and the results from medical investigations. By removing emotional “blocks”, addressing feelings of guilt and blame and by teaching couples to work together to keep stress and anxiety to an absolute minimum.

Hypnotherapy will help you to create a climate in which conception is encouraged to take place, so that you can give nature a better chance.

Please contact Helen to book a NO OBLIGATION initial consultation. If we both decide that treatment is right for you, I recommend that you commit to a minimum of 4 sessions in order for meaningful change to take place.


DURING PREGNANCY - YOGA FOR PREGNANCY
Pregnancy is a special time in a woman’s life and Yoga is the perfect exercise for during pregnancy.

Yoga is a gentle and safe means of keeping your body toned and supple; of preventing or relieving the aches and pains of pregnancy, of relaxing your mind and body and of preparing you for the physical and emotional demands of childbirth and motherhood itself. Our prenatal yoga classes offer a holistic approach to pregnancy and birth, allowing you to nurture yourself and your baby and help you access your own intuitive understanding of this very natural process. You will be encouraged to find an inner peace and discover the emotional link, which joins you to your baby from the very beginning of pregnancy. Our classes are based on the Birthlight Organisation principles. Birth 'light' refers to giving birth lightly, without undue strain on the body.

Classes can be attended from the 14th week of pregnancy right up to birth, and are held at Aditi Yoga Centre at various times during the week. The latest timetable can be viewed on the website www.aditiyogacentre.com

If you prefer a personalised approach, individual yoga tuition can be arranged with Helen for
pre-conception, during pregnancy, preparing for birth or for postnatal recovery.
