My name is Marie Louise See R.N practicing in the medical field for over 30 years and teaching yoga for over 20 years. As a Kripalu yoga teacher I felt that most important outcome for my students was to come out feeling more relaxed, having the relaxation response flowing through their body producing endorphins. I started to lean more and more towards alternative health modalities realizing that so many diseases were psychosomatic, meaning stress induced.
In the last 10 years I began to specialize in prenatal yoga and massage. Hundreds of pregnant mommies have come through my studio over the years, many times repeating the class with their next pregnancy. This experience led me to working with young women who want to become pregnant so badly and for whatever reason not able to conceive. They get referred to me for relaxation massages in between procedures during their IVF treatment. My heart goes out to these beautiful women and I feel their pain, their anguish as they want to succeed and are willing to pay so much money to have a baby. The goal is to work with these women to teach them relaxation and breathe diaphragmatically. As I gently hold my hand on their belly and I teach them to breathe deeply in the belly I give them an affirmation – “I am open to receive.” Also, I work with women who do not want to go the medical route and go for acupuncture and nutrition. They are referred to me for Maya abdominal massage (link to in new window: http://arvigomassage.com/definition_and_history.php) a deep abdominal massage that helps to open up the blood flow in the abdomen freeing stagnation and congestion.
So now to fertility hypnosis…well, I teach HypnoBirthing, the Marie Mongan Method, to my prenatal students; so this gave me a taste of what hypnosis could do for the student. Remember all hypnosis is self-hypnosis, a self-induced trance that takes you into a deep relaxation. Just like going through the training of massage, I loved it so much that hypnotherapy has become my career. After 10 years of prenatal work, now I want to make a difference in the fertility world. I want to help women to conceive through fertility hypnosis and stress management.
Thanks to being an R. N., I am able to combine these modalities to create a custom plan for each client to work towards fertility. My goal is to make a difference on a women’s journey as they walk this path with all their emotions flowing and their biggest wish to conceive through yoga, hypnosis and massage.
