How often do you tune into your inner intelligence, and what have you discovered about yourself when you do? Tuning into your inner self, connecting with your inner intelligence, and understanding the profound impact of emotions on your energy levels can enhance your fertility journey.
In this episode of the Finding Fertility podcast, I speak with Michelle Oravitz about the complexities of infertility and the impact of integrating Eastern and Western medicine. Michelle is a fertility acupuncturist, the founder of Wholesome Lotus, and the host of the Wholesome Fertility Podcast. She shares how Eastern practices like acupuncture helped her regain balance and fertility and the inspiration behind her book, The Way of Fertility.
Listen in to learn the importance of shifting away from a victim mentality, stepping into empowerment, and understanding the deeper issues behind fertility challenges. You will also learn how to establish healthy habits and practices such as meditation and emotional release to support your fertility.
“You’ll be able to go into surrender mode when you’re tapped into your empowerment and know you’re on the right path.”
