Fertility
There are many causes of infertility but often there is no physical obstruction found. Research suggests that high levels of stress may contribute to the problem and relaxation and guided imagery practices can help people cope better with this problem. Guided imagery can also help women who are experiencing mood swings from fertility drugs and the stress that comes from a sometimes extended trial of unfulfilled hopes and expectations. For infertility, I suggest exploring guided imagery in-depth, using the "Guided Imagery for Self-Healing" book and 4 CD set that will teach you the nine essential skills of using guided imagery to help stimulate healing from within. The book will explain the process, review the science behind it, and coach you through the common questions that people have, while the CD set guides you through the 9 essential guided imagery skills taught in the book. If you prefer to listen rather than read, you may want to start with "Self Healing with Guided Imagery", a 2 CD set featuring Dr. Andrew Weil. The first CD explains mind/body healing and guided imagery while the second teaches you three self-healing skills you can use to support better health. Another approach would be to simply use the "Stress Relief"or "Relaxing into Healing" CD to reduce your stress and let your system become better balanced.
