À propos de cet audio
A gently nurturing guide for aspiring mothers, filled with advice, recipes, and natural remedies for women trying to conceive
The path to motherhood is a deep and transformative process filled with unknowns. Awakening Fertility is a loving guide to accompany you along the road to whatever is next for you - whether it be a child or a deeper understanding of what it means to be a woman and the power that lies in your heart and in your womb.
Including 25 healing recipes, Awakening Fertility is a source of connection, nourishment, and guidance to those desiring to become mothers. As opposed to the countless other books on "trying to conceive," Awakening Fertility looks at this time before motherhood as a chance for discovery and growth.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

However, what left a sour taste in my mouth was the author's assertion (despite no formalized training in dietetics) that those who eat a plant-based diet in pre-conception and pregnancy are 'harming themselves and their future child'.
She cites this as the shared opinion of the 'wise ones' (several of whom are self-proclaimed healers from instagram), but uses no scientific data to justify this sweeping claim. Were the author to follow the trails of real data in the nutrition/dietetics community, she would find that a well-planned plant-based diet is shown to be healthy at all stages of life (including pre-conception and pregnancy). Instead of saying 'all vegans are harming their unborn children', what about a reminder of the importance of B12, iron, and DHA (all of which can be easily sustained through mindful planning and attention)?
At a macro level, there were some valuable perspectives gained from this book. But as soon as the author made the claim I discuss above, it made me feel yucky about everything else I had read prior.
I'm really not one to leave negative reviews online, but wanted to share my experience so others who are looking for positive resources for vegan conception/pregnancy can approach with caution!
Hard to enjoy if you're vegan/plant-based
