A wonderful book I would recommend not only for women who would like to conceive a child, but also for women interested in energy medicine, holistic medicine, spirituality and intuition. I like very much the ideas of Dr. Julie Von expressed in this book. She is a notable holistic fertility doctor in New York City. From being a medical doctor and having interest in obstetrics and fertility medicine myself, I agree that there is a lot more than just biology to conception. Sometimes just after a woman gives up on trying to become pregnant and removes an energy block, she becomes pregnant. There are interesting ideas about the interconnectedness of people and that sometimes it is necessary to work through spiritual karma passed from the family. Very good ideas are that a woman should focus on her well-being and distance herself from toxic situations and people in her life and that there is nothing wrong in doing so. Dr, Von advises ways in which to mitigate stress and get in touch with a woman’s spirit and intuition so that a woman can get in touch with the spirit of her child, even before conception. This was a very novel and interesting idea to me! Another idea that I agree with is that by trying to “have it all” and be accomplished professionals, women have lost touch with their spirituality and this has negative effect on their fertility. Another idea is that the patriarchal culture of Western society has not left much room for feminine self-expression. It is important to heal your relationships to parents, partner, God and other significant people in your life that you may not even realize play a role in your fertility. There are discussions on dreams, prayer, and other important factors in connecting to a woman’s spirit and intuition. Dr. Von seems to me is a very brave and innovative healer.
