This set of four separate fertility meditation exercises was created to provide holistic, mind-body tools to help with infertility challenges and boost desired results. These fertility meditation exercises are carefully and sensitively designed to help people let go of trying to control the process with excessive internal pressure to get pregnant, and instead hold the image that there is a baby meant for them in their future. This makes the fertility meditations appropriate for whatever might evolve—even an adoption outcome—as well as for conception and pregnancy.

It has even been found helpful to people dealing with bipolar illness. The soothing, hypnotic narrative evokes imagery of the heavy fog of depression lifting, as tamped down energy is liberated and released, so that you can reunite with your own inner strength and again feel hope, love, motivation and possibility. For those who wish to try treating depression naturally, this is worth trying first.

Total time: 63 minutes
Written and narrated by guided imagery and holistic health expert Belleruth Naparstek and scored to the exquisitely soothing music of Steven Mark Kohn, this popular Health Journeys pregnancy meditation was produced by the Cleveland Orchestra's impeccable sound engineer, Bruce Gigax.
The pregnancy meditation imagery inspires confidence in the body and gratitude for it, while promoting relaxation and feelings of safety, protection and support. It also reframes symptoms such as nausea and fatigue, and sets the stage for labor and delivery by enhancing the sense of connection with the baby within and with all the caring, protective, well-wishing ancestors who have come before.
The guided imagery for preparing for childbirth offers breathing techniques for labor, providing hypnotic tools for easing discomfort, focusing the breath and working with contractions. It generates increased trust in the body's inherent wisdom and awe for the miraculous process of giving birth. Each track for pregnancy and childbirth has an accompanying set of positive affirmations, which provide briefer versions of the same empowering, reassuring images and ideas—especially suitable for those who prefer a shorter format to listen to while on the go or even while driving.
Listen to the samples, read our reviews and see for yourself why these meditations for pregnancy and childbirth are such a popular, word-of-mouth favorite among expectant mothers and couples, and so heartily recommended by OBGYNs, obstetrical and delivery room nurses, childbirth educators, midwives and doulas nationwide. This meditation for pregnancy and childbirth is recommended for both mothers and fathers-to-be, with the suggestion to sometimes listen together. Not generally recommended for those who have previously experienced a traumatic loss in pregnancy or childbirth, but sometimes helpful for those wishing to become pregnant. (120 minutes)

These days, no one in America feels immune to violence. But now, in this extraordinary, groundbreaking book, the nation's leading expert on predicting violent behavior unlocks the puzzle of human violence and shows that, like every creature on earth, we have within us the ability to predict the harm others might do us and get out of its way.

Our gut is almost as important to us as our brain, yet we know very little about how it works. Gut: The Inside Story is an entertaining, informative tour of the digestive system from the moment we raise a tasty morsel to our lips until the moment our body surrenders the remnants to the toilet bowl. No topic is too lowly for the author's wonder and admiration, from the careful choreography of breaking wind to the precise internal communication required for a cleansing vomit.

Russ Harris offers a surprising solution to low self-confidence, shyness, and insecurity: Rather than trying to "get over" our fears, he says, the secret is to form a new and wiser relationship with them. Paradoxically, it's only when we stop struggling against our fearfulness that we begin to find lasting freedom from it.
