About this audiobook
A gently nurturing guide for aspiring mothers, filled with advice, recipes, and natural remedies for women trying to conceive
The path to motherhood is a deep and transformative process filled with unknowns. Awakening Fertility is a loving guide to accompany you along the road to whatever is next for you-whether it be a child or a deeper understanding of what it means to be a woman and the power that lies in your heart and in your womb. Including twenty-five healing recipes, Awakening Fertility is a source of connection, nourishment, and guidance to those desiring to become mothers. As opposed to the countless other books on "trying to conceive," Awakening Fertility looks at this time before motherhood as a chance for discovery and growth.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Most of the information was generic and not as in depth with TCM as I had hoped
1 person found this helpful
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This book is highly informative with reliable and trustworthy information. Great connections are made bridging together Chinese medicine, Ayurveda, and modern medicine. A reader's personal experience with pregnancy will probably influence how useful they find the book and/or how much they like the book.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5If you can take what serves you and leave anything that doesn’t, this is a great read. Some things did not align with my beliefs, but there was an immense amount of helpful suggestions and even just ideas to think upon regarding preconception. Would recommend
