Mind/Body Balance for Fertility
by
Kerry Hinds & Heather Smidt
Mind/Body Balance for Fertility: A self-care journey to support conception and pregnancy with Kerry Hinds & Heather Smidt Sundays October 14-November 4 || 3-5pm (4 Sessions) $275 || $225 before October 7th
Cost includes: informational handouts and recordings of meditation and visualizations
In this day and age we often become so focused on the egg meets sperm part of the fertility process, we forget to take care of the whole package. This 4-week workshop series has been thoughtfully designed to allow you to experience different self-care methods of non-medical fertility support.
Join Heather Smidt and Kerry Hinds for a weekly 2 hours of complete relaxation and guidance through practices that will allow your body and mind to be as receptive to conception as possible. This workshop incorporates many of the body and energy work practices that are used to aid fertility in women: reiki and self-reiki techniques, restorative and body-led slow flow Yoga, meditation, fertility self-massage, and auricular (ear) acupuncture. These methods of bringing harmony to the mind and body are powerful and transformative. By affecting the body holistically, it gives women the opportunity to truly relax, heal, reduce stress, and become as fertile as possible. An additional component to this great workshop is the building of community around an often isolating experience, providing women with a safe and non-judgmental space to speak of their experiences. No previous yoga experience required.
The workshop is open to all women who are on their path to becoming a mother, whatever it may look like. This includes women who:
- are undergoing Assisted Reproductive Therapy (IUI, Hormone Therapy, IVF)
- are finding it is taking longer than expected to get pregnant
- have experienced pregnancy loss or losses
- are at the beginning of their pregnancy journey and would like to prepare the body
- are looking for a non invasive approach to support their fertility
This series is open to women who are presently not pregnant and respectfully not for women who are already pregnant.
Please note: Restorative Yoga, Acupuncture, and Mindfulness Practices have been examined and scientifically supported to be beneficial to fertility, with many studies linking traditional acupuncture care to increased IVF success rates. Meditation has been seen to help women in IVF treatment have better quality of life and coping skills. This workshop is specifically labelled as supportive to fertility, thus meaning that we are not claiming that doing these practices will guarantee pregnancy. We suggest that you use these techniques alongside any other therapies you are undergoing.
About Heather:
Heather used acupuncture, self-reiki, and massage to help her maintain a balanced mind and feel comfortable with where she was on her own fertility journey. A graduate of the New England School of Acupuncture at MCPHS, Heather holds a Masters of Acupuncture in both Chinese and Japanese Style Acupuncture. She is a Reiki Master Teacher and Shinpiden in both the Usui Reiki Ryoho and Komyo ReikiDo traditions. She has been teaching Reiki since 2012 and has been practicing professionally since 2009. Heather has trained with 5 different Reiki Masters including the late John Harvey Gray, Inamoto Hyakuten, William Lee Rand, Joanna Scaparotti, and Christine MacMahan. In addition, Heather completed a 750 hour training in massage therapy from the Cortiva Institute in 2010. As a former educator, Heather enjoys combining patient education with healing modalities to those in her care find balance in their lives. She is currently an associate acupuncturist at Angela Bell Acupuncture. http://www.angelabellacupuncture.com
About Kerry Hinds
Yoga was an important practice during Kerry’s personal fertility journey. Having experienced multiple courses of reproductive therapy, as well as pregnancy loss, Kerry has intimate knowledge of working through (not always gracefully!) fertility challenges and how powerful yoga, acupuncture, reiki, and massage can be during these times. She strives to provide a yoga practice that is thoughtful and beneficial to women on their own journeys to becoming mothers. Kerry has over 12 years of yoga teaching experience and training in fertility yoga (with Sue Dumais), restorative yoga (Relax and Renew with Judith Lasater), vinyasa yoga (with Jennifer Yarro and Vidya Heisel), and prenatal and postnatal yoga (with Bec Conant).

Coming to a workshop like this as a more seasoned practitioner with an open mind as well as learning things correctly right from the start both are critical to yoga practice. This workshop will cover breathing techniques for yoga, review the alignment as well as some of the anatomy of key postures and then apply all of it to dynamic movement, as we call it in yoga, "vinyasa." We will break down poses and then apply them in a sequence so the workshop is both instructional and practical as well. As mentioned above, this workshop is ideal for beginners and also can be a helpful investment for those with an already established practice but who have never attended a formal workshop to learn the key aspects of yoga. Students can expect to: - Learn breathing techniques, specifically how to use ujjayi breathing in practice
- Learn key poses in yoga through both the lens of alignment as well as key anatomical aspects
- Apply all three concepts to a movement based practice to review and integrate what has been covered.
About Karen: Yoga teacher, Author, and Founder of Bare Bones Yoga, Karen Fabian has a background in rehabilitative medicine & healthcare, through clinical work as a social worker, rehabilitation counselor & in health care settings over her 20 year business career. Her passion for anatomy fuels her teaching, particularly in her classes, workshops & online courses.

Self Care Saturday
by
Ray Mucci & Alecia Dayger
Self Care Saturday with Ray Mucci & Alecia Dayger Saturday November 3 || 6-8pm $35 || $40 on November 3 This workshop is designed to support students at all levels of experience through an integrated sequence of flow and restorative yoga poses. This two hour practice begins with an hour slow flow and ends with an hour restorative practice. Throughout the workshop, a group of 4-6 assistants circulate in the space to provide hands-on assisting to deepen your awareness of your self, allow for the next level of relaxation and ultimately give you the opportunity to provide self care. Since 2012 this workshop has been offered monthly in the Cambridge space with our wonderful team of assistants. The first hour of the workshop is a slow flow vinyasa practice with an emphasis on mindful movement, breathing and of course, receiving assists. The second hour will unwind you with a restorative practice where poses and assist combine energetically to ease you into a state of relaxation. About Ray:Ray has been teaching Self Care Saturday since 2011 and has been involved with teaching assisting for many years before this. Back then, as the assisting team began to grow, Self Care Saturday was started as a means to support growth in the assistant community and a space to come together as a group to assist students together through a yoga practice. Ray uses mindful and simple cues to ease students through the slow flow portion of this workshop with the primary goal of creating space for students to mindfully move in a way that sets them up to receive assists, often teaching poses that are favorites to be assisted in.
About Alecia
Alecia believes that yoga is a healing practice. She structures her teaching to restore physical and mental balance. Her thoughtful cues help to illuminate patterns of tension and compensation, while inviting students to explore more effective ways of moving. Alecia utilizes breath work to anchor her classes in a present moment experience and provides space for students to be at home in their body.
