Beware skeptics! This book isn't for the scientifically-minded. It's definitely for those of us who espouse the earthy-crunchy, trust-your-own-body-to-heal-itself mentality.
Essentially it outlines the fertility-enhancing tools that Julia Indichova loosely described in her first book, Inconceivable, with particular focus on the mind/body work that she did with detailed descriptions of different exercises.

A book that talks about the experiences of many women in taking control of their own fertility and what they did. It is filled with lots of information about dealing with stress and emotional issues that will influence your ability to conceive, as well as giving good nutritional and lifestyle information that is very helpful.

its like Christine Northrup says about this book, her words are like reading a prayer. Sweet, short read on infertility that I found inspiring and comforting... nice meditation practices, imagery, and body work. Indichova turns infertility into an adventure of learning oneself, and creating a want to understand the root of the why's and how's that having trouble conceiving inevitably precede.
thank you, natalie, for recommending such a powerful book. i cried within the first five pages...
...and found healing in the subsequent two hundred and fifty pages.
