Handling The Emotional Side of Infertility | The Fertility Connection

“When we get stuck in our own struggle we can’t see others’ struggle.” Topics Discussed: How to handle your emotions and why it’s important to cry. How to deal with negative thoughts. How do we move forward with our thinking while we are struggling with infertility? How can we identify our triggers for our anger or other emotions? When it comes to infertility we are told often from a young age that we cannot show emotion, that showing emotion equals weakness.  As a result of this many of us turn towards other emotions when we are going through the infertility journey.  Anger, bitterness, resentment, jealousy and so much more can rise up.   “Anger is exhausting.” In this episode, we talk about not just how to deal with your emotion in a positive way in order to let yourself feel, but how to recognize your feelings and thoughts.  We can lay more emotional baggage on ourselves by feeling guilty for our negative thoughts, but by recognizing that our thoughts are not who we are, that can help us on our journey of working through them.    “Observe your thoughts, but know you are not your thoughts.” We have to come to an understanding that it is okay to feel, it is okay to feel sad.  We don’t have to keep everything bottled up.  In fact doing so leads to even more frustration and anger.  It’s our desire that in this episode we show you that infertility and the journey does not have to ruin your life, and that life can still be beautiful. 🍍   Let's Do This Together 💚 Monica   🌺 Book Your Discovery Call Today here: https://calendly.com/findingfertility/discoveryconsultation?month=2022-10   🦩Download your FREE 3 Things that can make all the difference in helping you get & stay pregnant here: https://www.findingfertility.co/free3stepguide   👯‍♀️Join The Fertility Formula for only $99 a month - FREE 8-days here: https://www.findingfertility.co/offers/wFXrVFk5    Connect with Monica over on  Instagram: https://bit.ly/FindingFertilityIG  TikTok: https://bit.ly/FindingFertilityTikTok    🍍HELP SUPPORT THE SHOW🍍 You can shop for your favourite fertility support products over on: Seeking Health:https://bit.ly/FFSeekingHealth & Amazon:http://bit.ly/FindingFertilityAmazon    🎙 Subscribe on your favourite podcast platform:⁣⁠⁣⁣⁣ Apple: http://bit.ly/FINDINGFERTILITYAPPLE⁣⁠⁣⁣⁣ Stitcher: http://bit.ly/FindingFertilitySTITCHER   🍍   Anything written or said about health and diet are my opinions, that I have formed over the years, through trial and error, study, reading, listening and observing.
