Recent trends suggest that couples find it hard to embrace parenthood due to mental health issues and a fast-paced urban lifestyle. You might be flooded with millions of suggestions when you are trying to conceive, but consuming a nutritionally balanced diet, exercising, and having unprotected sex will not be enough to help you achieve the desired results. It is important to work on your mental as well as physical health if you are getting unsuccessful results from the past few months or years. When your body is dealing with so many mental and physical issues while balancing personal and professional lives, you can try fertility yoga asanas to deal with stress and face everyday challenges.
While many of us are aware of the amazing health benefits of practicing yoga asanas, we might not know its miraculous effects in boosting fertility. If the reason behind your inability to conceive is infertility, then yoga asanas can surely increase the chances of conception. Practicing yoga doesn’t guarantee a baby however, it boosts fertility by focusing on 3 elements, which are- improving circulation, reducing stress, and increasing flexibility.
When you are planning for pregnancy, a healthy body and a calm mind are the 2 pre-conditions that can increase your chances of getting pregnant. Regularly practicing yoga asanas is a wonderful way to boost your fertility. When you practice breathing exercises in yoga, it helps lower the levels of cortisol (stress-causing hormone), and increase your chances of having a healthy pregnancy. If your stress levels are low, you can enjoy a sound sleep at night and improve your personal and professional life.
When you regularly practice yoga, it helps in flushing out all the toxins from your body. If there are any kind of blockages in your reproductive system and it’s hindering your chances of getting pregnant, yoga helps work wonders. It helps detoxify your internal organs by improving blood circulation.
Regularly practicing yoga asanas will help in keeping the hormones balanced. When your hormones are balanced, you can achieve a healthy endocrine system, which is essential to achieving optimum fertility.
Experiencing infertility can cause stress and make you feel disconnected from your internal and external needs. When you are practicing yoga asanas and meditation, you can connect with the inner-self that will help you stay calm and poise. Additionally, you can listen to the signs that your body sends to your mind while making decisions. You will enjoy your newfound intuitive powers.
A great yoga session will help you build your social relationships. It gives you immense pleasure when you know you are breathing and moving with people who have similar goals and interests.
Chronic inflammation, if left unchecked, can contribute to various life-threatening diseases like cancer, obesity, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, etc. This can negatively impact fertility and your chances of conceiving. Yoga asanas help in protecting your internal organs and can address various underlying causes like insomnia, unmanaged depression, and hormone dysregulation.
We often forget to take good care of ourselves in the hustle-bustle of our daily lives. Undoubtedly, it’s a blissful state when you step away from all your worries and try to focus on your mind, soul, and body. When you are trying to conceive, listening to your body is imperative. Until and unless we are tired or fall sick, we never stop working however, yoga can help you connect with yourself. As you practice yoga asanas, you can listen to your body's needs and effortlessly sense a connection with your fertility cycle.
