In this episode, Kerry Hinds, founder of Fertile Body Yoga, shares how nervous system regulation, receptivity, and embodied awareness can transform the fertility journey. Drawing from her own experience with pregnancy loss, IVF, and eventual natural conception, Kerry explains how chronic stress, perfectionism, and constant “doing” can keep the body in survival mode — and how slowing down, creating space, and restoring parasympathetic balance can support healing and fertility.
Through yoga, breath, and presence, she teaches that surrender is not giving up — it is releasing resistance so the body can return to flow, safety, and receptivity.
Key Takeaways:
- Fertility requires safety, not survival mode. Chronic stress shifts the body away from reproduction.
- Surrender is not quitting — it’s releasing resistance. You can desire a baby without gripping tightly.
- Space creates receptivity. When the body softens, healing and conception become possible.
- Mind, body, and energy are inseparable. Yoga helps regulate the nervous system and restore balance.
- Perfectionism and people-pleasing increase stress load. Self-care and boundaries are essential.
