Remember the negative cycle of emotions and infertility:
- Infertility IS stressful
- Optimal fertility requires a delicate balance of hormones
- The stress response triggered by the emotional and physical stress of infertility disrupts your natural hormone balance compounding any other physical issues
- Creating peace, even for as little as 20 minutes a day, will interrupt this stress cycle and bring your body back into balance
|
It is one thing to understand that creating peace helps create optimal fertility.
It is quite another to actually create peace when all you want to do is cry. Or yell. Or simply give up.
This is where Anji comes in.
Create Peace Now tools from Anji use the physiologic connection between your body and mind to your advantage; to create the sensation of peace in THIS moment, no matter what else is going on in your daily life. These tips, techniques, and products are designed to work at any time, day or night - to create peace for you when it feels as if peace is so far away that you couldn’t possibly create it.
The foundational Create Peace Now tool: A Journey of the Heart CD Series
Jennifer R Bloome, founder of Anji has created A Journey of the Heart, a line of CD recordings utilizing the mind-body connection to give you a sense of peace whenever you need it. The recordings are specific to the type of fertility treatment you are doing (Natural, Medicated, IVF, etc) and make use of the Relaxation Response, a scientifically proven physiologic response that is the exact opposite of the stress response.
- What the Relaxation Response is:
The Relaxation Response is the exact opposite of the "fight or flee" stress response. When you elicit this response you create a peaceful feeling throughout your body and mind and your body gets the message that it is safe to turn off the stress response.
When you elicit this response on a regular basis, your body becomes less responsive to the stress hormones. If your body can’t ‘hear’ the stress messages, it can’t go into the stress response and your body’s natural balance is maintained. By creating peace on a regular basis, you create a positive cycle of emotions.
- What the Relaxation response isn’t:
This is NOT: “Oh, just “relax”, take a vacation, and you will get pregnant.”
Utilizing the Relaxation Response is using a scientific approach to achieve optimal fertility.

• Physical and Muscular Relaxation
• Emotional Relaxation
• Powerful Imagery
Imagery is simply focused daydreaming using all of your senses. Your brain does not know the difference between an image that is real and an image that you think about. Imagery allows you to provide your body with the images that you would like to be real.
When you use the A Journey of the Heart CDs, you will:
• Stop the Stress Response
• Put your body back in to as balanced a state as possible
• Gain back control of your fertility
There are 5 fertility titles in the A Journey of the Heart Series:
