Embrace Fertility
What is better than meditation while going through infertility or IVF? Interview with Robyn Birkin
13 Feb 2022
Episode 83: We are back for another fertility expert interview series with my lovely friend Robyn Birkin. We met online a couple of years ago and bonded over our love of science backed mind-body techniques that stop you going back shit crazy while trying to conceive! In today’s episode Robyn shares her own journey through IUIs, IVF and miscarriage. Her experiences of mediating with monks and what happened on a surfing trip in Bail that changed everything. We then dive into: How meditation has been put on a pedestal as a fix all Why meditation can actually make people feel worse if they are struggling with chronic anxiety or trauma What is better than meditation when you’re going through infertility or IVF Feel Better Weekend "When infertility, loss and trying to conceive is so incredibly difficult - I wanted to create something that *wasn't* about improving fertility, or getting pregnant faster or supplements or detective work - none of that. Something that just focused on YOU. Because you matter. Your mental health matters. And if TTC is breaking you apart... or even if it just has really hard moments, you deserve to feel heard, supported and validated. Full stop. You deserve to invest your time and energy into yourself. You are worthy. Beautiful, incredible and amazing you. Of joy. Of happiness. Of support. Of self-kindness. Of having human experiences. Of not feeling like you need to be perfect allllll the time. All of it. So I've created an event and you are invited. I am.... still shocked, surprised, grateful and overjoyed that so many incredible colleagues have said YES to you as well, and are joining me for the Feel Better Weekend. Join us from 18 - 20 February for this FREE event where we'll share our best resources, tips and actionable steps to help you feel calmer, more connected and more empowered as you navigate infertility, loss and trying to conceive." - Robyn You won't want to miss this!

Her journey starts off just like most of us. She thought having a baby would take no time at all.
