My Fertility Journey
We have exciting news to share… but first a little fertility context and a message of hope:
December 2017, a few days after I was married, I was diagnosed with breast cancer and flooded with information overload and uncertainty.
One of the primary concerns of my doctor was protecting my fertility during treatment because I was so young (I was 27, I am now 35), so she referred me to an IVF specialist.
I did not know much about it but I went to my appointment and he ran tests on me and did an internal ultrasound and told me my chances of ever conceiving naturally were already very low prior to treatment and would be worse after, due to my follicle count and low ovarian reserve. He recommended that my husband and I go through with the process to fertilize and freeze our embryos for when the time comes, but ultimately it was our decision.
Tips For creating a bible study routine
If you’re a Christian woman who struggles to stay consistent with a daily contemplative Bible study routine, or feel as if something is missing in your quite time, here is an empowering truth you should know:
Sometimes the issue isn’t discipline, it’s disconnection.
You may be trying to meet with God while your body is stuck in survival mode, contracted, & disconnected.
This is hard to fight against because 80 % of the messages you receive about your environment & how yoou should act in a situation comes from your body, not your mind.
Which is why spiritual rhythms that engage and honor your mind, body & Spirit can be so life changing.
Prior to beginning our contemplative time & open God’s word, when we pause to bring our full selves into the present moment & honor our bodies, we cultivate space for deeper presence, peace, and connection with the Lord.
If you need help cultivating a Spiritual rhythm like this, here is an example of my Aligned & Renewed Embodied Biblical Practice.
