   It’s nice to have a different yoga routine for each phase of the cycle. I wish they explained what each or most of the exercises was helping but it is a good dvd.

   Drs. Horn and Yu have created a Yoga for Fertility DVD that surpasses anything I have seen before. This is a must have for couples who are faced with the daunting challenge of infertility. Watching this DVD will nourish the soul, clear the mind and tone the body: all perfectly coordinated to present a balanced state which, in my profesional opinion will increase fertility outcomes.

   I highly recommend this product.

   I have been on the fertility journey for some time, and this is a DVD that I would highly recommend. This DVD is very helpful in that it not only explains “how”, it gives detailed information regarding “why”. I am the type of person that enjoys learning the science behind something that I undertake, and this DVD provides that information without being too technical/beyond a lay-person’s reach.

   While I consider myself a fairly active person, yoga is not something that I would say comes naturally to me, and so I found it extremely helpful that, depending upon one’s flexibility/ability, you are given options re: how to obtain/transition between the poses. And I must say, you will DEFINITELY feel the effects of the various poses and stretches! It is helpful to obtain a yoga mat/blocks and have a towel and pillow ready when you start, as noted in an earlier review.

   One very beneficial thing that to note is that my body is definitely affected by conducting the poses on the DVD. I immediately noticed that my cycle has responded by becoming more regular and, interestingly, I have had the BEST sleep ever! I normally toss/turn during the night, but since I have started using the DVD I have had a very deep sleep without tossing/turning.

   In summary, I think this DVD more than accomplishes what it sets out to do. When I go through an IVF cycle, I can put another post re: the DVD’s impact on that.

   I purchased this dvd a few weeks ago and I love it! It is a very impressive integration of medical knowledge and yoga techniques. I found the different perspectives and ways to do the poses helpful because I’m not exactly the most flexible person in the world. I would recommend this to anyone who is trying to get pregnant. I’m already looking forward to my next hpt.

   I’m both an acupuncturist and a yoga practitioner so I got this DVD
   
   to see if I wanted to recommend it to my fertility patients. I have
   
   to say that I am very impressed. The sets alternate through the 4
   
   phases of the menstrual cycle while describing what’s happening at each phase. I especially like some of the folds they do, which bring blood circulation and energy to the ovaries … you can feel it. I think this will help women feel empowered and feel that there’s more they can do to enhance their fertility. By the way, they don’t tell you that you will need a small towel for some of the poses,
   
   so be sure to have one handy.
