The emotional impact of infertility can negatively affect many aspects of your life and your relationships. Learning ways to reduce stress, tension, and isolation is clearly beneficial to individuals and couples experiencing infertility. Some recent research suggests that mind/body support groups decrease feelings of anxiety, depression and anger, as well as increase pregnancy rates of participants. This Saturday morning seminar will introduce several of the mind/body techniques that have improved the quality of life of participants in our 10-week Mind/Body Support Group. In these three and one-half hours, you will learn an overview of: ·The relaxation response and how to elicit it; ·Meditation and guided imagery; ·Cognitive-behavioral strategies to enhance coping skills; and ·Communication strategies to improve couples relationships with each other, family and friends. $100 person/$175 couple |
