As a hypnotherapist and healer, here’s what I’ve learned about “unexplained” infertility.

For many women, unexplained infertility can be a difficult and confusing road to navigate. After months, or even years, of trying to conceive with no success, it’s easy to feel alone and frustrated.

But it’s important to remember that you are not alone in this journey and there is hope for a successful outcome. Through my professional experience helping many women who suffered from unexplained infertility, I have learned that understanding the complexities of our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual bodies is key to unlocking our fertility potential.

Fertility and the physical body

Our physical body is unique and each woman’s fertility journey will look different. It may include tests such as an ultrasound or blood work to check hormone levels or determine the health of the uterus and ovaries.

Additionally, some women may need medical intervention such as IVF or IUI to help them conceive. Other women find success through diet changes or supplements that support their reproductive health.

However, when all physical components have been addressed, it’s time to go deeper.

We are so much more than just a brain operating a body - every human being is a complex energy field and our physical body is influenced by our other bodies: mental, emotional and spiritual.

What blocks fertility in a woman is often linked to emotional trauma or subconscious beliefs held deep within her mind regarding her self-worth or ability to become pregnant.

Therefore, it’s essential to go beyond the physical level when investigating infertility issues as these deeper emotions can have an impact on the ability to conceive.

As a hypnotherapist and shamanic healer, I work with individuals to uncover, understand and shift the stagnant energy in their field that is blocking them from experiencing pleasure and joy, or causing them to struggle with fears, anxiety or depression. 

What I’ve discovered is that the problem we think we have is never the problem we really have. 

The “problem” we consider is generally just a symptom of something that lies much deeper and often beyond what we are able to access with our analytical mind (the one that “thinks”). 

Our subconscious mind however (the one that “feels”), holds all the answers if we just ask the right questions and know how to connect the dots.

Our subconscious mind is programmed in early childhood with belief systems that stem from our experiences. 

Everything that we have seen, heard, felt is stored in an emotional database and used to formulate beliefs systems that then make up our reality. 

The ugly truth is that we are generally blissfully unaware of what we believe and why. We also tend to judge our deepest emotions because we don’t want to acknowledge how we really feel. 

We so often block our deepest feelings and honest desires out of self-judgement. 

Let me just take a moment to remind you that are allowed to be human, encouraged even, and that you have a valid reason to believe what you believe. Also, nothing is ever set in stone.

My hope is to shed some light on the inner workings of your subconscious as I know that awareness is a powerful step towards doing life on your own terms.

Your subconscious mind has one job : to keep you safe.

In order to do its job, your subconscious mind will keep you away from anything that could lead to physical danger. 

So, if you subconsciously believe that having a baby is a threat to your health in any way, your mind will ensure that your body does not go through with it.

The belief may come  from being a small child overhearing a conversation about a traumatic birth or watching a TV show where a woman passes during labor. 

A belief is created from the perspective of a child, it may seem irrational to the adult mind but it was emotional enough to leave an imprint on the child and therefore the emotional body.

Your subconscious mind doesn’t discriminate between physical and emotional pain: any kind of pain is a form of danger and it must keep you away from it at all cost. 

In order to shift the subconscious beliefs that stand in the way of our desires, we must learn to collaborate with our mind rather than fight it.

Your subconscious mind will do its best to keep you away from isolation, failure or rejection.

We are social creatures and need one another. They say it takes a village… yet we see and hear of young mothers being isolated, overwhelmed and exhausted. 

If we have experienced separation from friends, colleagues and social groups due to the arrival of a new baby, this may be a source of unconscious inner-conflict. 

The fear of failing as a mother can haunt women who unfortunately didn’t have a loving, caring mother of their own… they often hold a deep belief that they don’t know what to do and are in some way incompetent or unworthy. 

In my experience, this is so far from the truth, women who seek to become good mothers are dedicated to their own healing and therefore have the potential to become the exceptional mothers they always wished for.

Your energy body may carry trauma from previous generations or past lives. 

Our womb space carries the energetic imprint of the generations that came before us, some of those generations may not have had the sexual freedom or consent that we are entitled to these days. 

Our womb space can carry so much shame and pain from the past. In shamanism, it is believed that we can carry trauma from up to seven generations past or into the future.

It seems unfair to have to heal the generations that came before us, but I believe it’s an honour and privilege to have access to resources and support that our ancestors could only dream of.

In essence, I believe that the cure for unexplained infertility, as for so many other medical mysteries, lies in our willingness to come back to ourselves and re-learn to love ourselves and our bodies unconditionally on a cellular level.

From this place of true self-acceptance and self-love, we gain access to our limitless potential and creative power.

We have fought so hard, as women, to have privileges, rights and freedoms. Many of us around the world are still fighting.

In times of difficulty we must turn inward for strength but also reach out for help from those around us who can offer emotional support and guidance on our journey towards parenthood.

By connecting with ourselves spiritually we can gain insight into what may be blocking our ability to conceive and begin healing at a deeper level which may ultimately lead us closer towards achieving our goal of motherhood/parenthood.

One of our shared purposes is to impact the world in our unique and beautiful way. It’s time for us to heal the past so that we can free the next generation of the trauma that we are holding in our very cells. This is how we will create a world that we desire for our children.
