Are You Up to the Challenge?
 Zen Fertility Challenge-A Self-Healing Journey to Conceive Your Baby is a program that empowers you with tools to support yourself emotionally throughout your journey to conceive. Learn fertility meditations and visualizations, Zen Fertility Yoga Exercises, and journaling exercises through which you discover and release emotional blocks that contribute to your difficulty in conceiving. Learn relationship exercises to stay connected to your partner and help facilitate conception.
The Challenge teaches you to transform your struggle to conceive into a positive experience through which you discover your power to create your dream family and dream life.
Studies have proven that at least 70% of disease is stress related. Studies also prove that chronic stress may inhibit ovulation and damage sperm. Addressing the physical symptoms of "infertility" provides only half of the solution. Without healing mental and emotional patterns, physical imbalances are likely to reappear without ever fully resolving.
By relieving stress and maintaining emotional balance, circulation to the reproductive organs improves and hormonal response regulates, thereby improving sperm and egg quality, ovulation, healthy implantation and increased nourishment to the growing embryo.
In Chinese Medicine, emotional health and physical health are not considered separate from one another. The philosophy is quite simple: when you hold on to stress, your body contracts causing a lack of free flow of blood and nutrients. When things aren’t flowing, stuff goes wrong! Blood carries everything the body needs, such as hormones, nutrients, immune cells, natural pain killers, etc.
In other words, acknowledging and releasing mental-emotional blocks is absolutely essential to help you conceive in a timely manner and saves you money, time, and heartache.
The Challenge teaches you to improve the quality of your life overall. Life doesn't stand still until you conceive the child of your dreams. In the meantime, you want to enjoy your life, relationships, family, and work. Too often, the struggle to conceive compromises the quality of your life as the stress becomes overwhelming. This Challenge offers the tools you need to feel fulfilled, joyful, and at peace throughout your fertility journey. By participating, you exchange support and inspiration to your fellow Challenge members who join you along your journey.
To complete the Challenge and heal your own fertility, you will receive 12 weekly emails, each including:
- fertility assignments
- relationship exercise

Heidi Brockmyre, L.Ac. facilitates the forum discussions and offers personalized feedback and guidance throughout the 12-weeks. You may begin the E-workshop at any time. This workshop is strongly recommended in conjunction with your acupuncture treatment.

Your life may be enriched in ways you never would have discovered otherwise.
“Life has meaning only in the struggle. Triumph or defeat is in the hands of the Gods. So let us celebrate the struggle!” - Swami Sivananda
In Chinese medicine, the heart is considered connected to the uterus. In fact, the first thing that confirms a new viable growing life within the uterus is another heartbeat. So open your heart and prepare to conceive.

"The Challenge was a positive tool in helping me refocus my thoughts and beliefs about my body and my ability to conceive.The breathing yoga exercises were easy and quick. I could fit them in each morning. I think the the deep breathing and visualization of each exercise, (gathering up fertile energy,pushing away negative thoughts and beliefs), helped me start the day off right. I had been getting so caught up in whats wrong with me, and honestly starting to look for more "problems" to ask the Dr about what could be going wrong. The Challenge shifted my focus to a proactive mentality and allowed me to feel some control over this situation. It also helped "reset" me when I was worrying, and feeling negative and hopeless.
I did the journaling exercises at night to release a lot of anxiety before bed as I tend to worry most at night .It was a way to release a lot of pent up emotions and also keep my mind focused on how strong and healthy I have become. I enjoyed the forum it helped me feel less alone. They say there's strength in numbers so just knowing there were others out there on this same journey felt supportive.
This has been such a crazy experience that neither I nor my husband had expected. Taking time to do the relationship exercises and things as simple as spending more time together in order to open our line of communication has strengthened us as a couple. I liked telling him which of his qualities I hoped our child would inherit! It is so much more fun to imagine that than all the things that could go wrong like I had been doing." -JM

"I'd like to share with everyone how great and healthy and positive I feel. My husband and I were doing fertility treatments, but we had taken a little break for a few months and we were just getting ready to start IUI. I was also going to start acupuncture to help me get pregnant, and now I'm going to start acupuncture to help to sustain my pregnancy! As soon as the fertility challenge started, I changed the way I felt, ate, and thought. I cut out ALL caffeine, alcohol, junk food, and soda. I've been eating more fruits and vegetables every day. I love the yoga and meditation, as they are very different for me from my busy lifestyle. It's great to take some time for me and my future baby. My husband and I have been doing the relationship exercises and it's brought us even closer. I love doing the positive affirmations as it's really helped me thus far. It's so easy to get caught up with the negative thoughts that enter in to my mind, but I just keep reminding myself of what my body has already given me. The reflective exercises are good for me to think about to help me stay focused and positive, as well. I really thank Heidi and the fertility challenge for helping me become another success story!" -TK

"When our daughter was 2 1/2yrs old, we started to think about trying for a second baby. I had a miscarriage prior to having my daughter, so I was not surprised to have some difficulty conceiving a second child. Before I knew it, a year had gone by and we were “still trying”. A friend of mine recommended seeing an infertility specialist. I was not sure if I needed to be in that clinic, since I had already had a successful pregnancy, but it had already been a year and I thought maybe they can help. I went through the initial workup and all labs and studies were normal for me and “normal enough” for my husband. I tried one round of Clomid but did not respond well to the treatment and the doctors recommended daily injections. I was very frustrated at this point because I didn’t understand why I was not able to get pregnant if everything was normal. I started to look for other options and liked the idea of acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine. I felt like it made sense to make your body as healthy as possible to conceive. After all, if I was going to be giving myself injections, I wanted to make sure I did everything else possible to limit the number of times I would have to try this treatment.
I started acupuncture one day a week and found it to be very relaxing. It was my chance to get away from the day to day work and to focus on me. I changed my diet and took the recommended supplements and started to feel healthier and more energetic. When the fertility challenge started, I looked over the activities for each week and thought about the topics but I did not write in a journal or do the exercises with my husband. After the mid-challenge retreat, I was inspired by one of the other members to write in a journal and really complete each exercise. I was amazed at how much this really helped me to focus and cope with my feelings. I started to get my husband involved in the exercises as well. My relationship with my husband was not as strong as it once was. Through the exercises, we began to talk again and share experiences like we used to. It was my husband’s response to these exercises that really put things in perspective. He said, “Maybe I am still stressing too much about when we get pregnant and would I rather have a baby 2 years from now, or not at all.” Just knowing how he felt, and that I had his support through this whole process, no matter how long it took, was very comforting.
After this, I was able to “let go” a little and just let nature take its course. I continued with daily injections and after our first attempt at an IUI (intrauterine insemination), we were able to get pregnant. Would we have been able to conceive without the IUI? Maybe, but I strongly believe that the fertility challenge helped me to cope with my feelings and helped my husband and I to reconnect our bond to welcome a new baby to our family! It will happen, just trust and nourish your body and mind :)" - Michelle S.
