A quiet place to read, pause, and feel less alone. In the Reading Room, we write about the fertility journey as we’ve lived it – the body, the nervous system, the waiting, the grief, and the in-between. These essays are written by women who have been there, blending lived experience with gentle science, to offer steadiness when things feel uncertain.
Mindfulness & fertility: a nervous-system approach
Why meditation and breathwork actually work for fertility, explained through the nervous system. Learn the physiology behind mindfulness practices: how they shift cortisol, activate rest-and-repair, and help your body feel safe enough to conceive. Not another 'just relax' piece – this is about understanding what's happening in your body.
