Fertile Ground: A Mind-Body Approach to Getting Pregnant without It Taking over Your Life Paperback – 8 May 2024

It’s not just a fertility book, it’s a path to yourself again

This book is a must read if you are trying to conceive. Or if you are pregnant. Or if you are a woman!It’s full of wisdom, knowledge, wit, humility, pain (that has been processed in such a beautiful way) and hope – lots and lots of HOPE.Spenser’s personal story is very relatable and touching. It is also evidence of turning life’s lemons into a lemonade, aka post-traumatic growth. The book is a love letter to women and couples trying to conceive and you can feel this powerful energy emanating from its pages (the suggested Spotify playlist enhances the process). It is also a great practical guide on how to stay sane in the process and go from merely surviving to thriving. The book is divided into 9 chapters, they all include some practical exercises (i.e. how to feel and process emotions, how to get in touch with your nature, how to make peace with uncertainty), messages from fertility, various research and also letters from Spenser’s clients.Reading the book, I felt so connected to women, Spenser’s clients, who shared their stories. These stories a true testimony to how important the mind body work is and what makes Spenser’s approach to fertility so unique and efficient. These stories also make me ponder on the mystery of life and fertility – there is so much more to it than what the clinics and statistics (and Dr Google) say! Thus, the book feels like an antidote to the medicalised and rigid fertility industry. It is not yet another to do (and don’t) list and advice on how to ger pregnant fast, but it is a spiritual journey, an invitation from Fertility, coming home to yourself.

What can I say? This book has really Surprise me. and you, Spencer from Podcast as I follow her regularly so I was looking forward to read the book and that didn’t disappoint me. It’s so deep and he really teach you how to deal with your emotions with bad or good work with them is amazing because from the 1st chapter I felt a shift myself and I kept repeating to myself it’s okay to fill in this way and I was processing by the emotion in a different way. I definitely gonna read it again as I marked some of the chapter for my references in case I need to go back. It is a beautiful book and he’s very recommended for people that have been stressed too.TTC a baby is just a step in this journey , there is more than that .. and you will get the message on this book .beautiful ❤️

Spenser brings her real and authentic self, struggles and experience and makes it accessible to everyone in this book. She is so genuine and her revelations are helping so many women step out of the fertility-fast lane and reconnect with themselves. Her insights are not just for those trying to fall pregnant, but for anyone wanting to reconnect with their authentic selves and stop struggling with life. I've listened to all her podcasts and been working with her and when reading the book, it's as if she's speaking to me - I can hear her voice in the way it's written, which is so authentic.

For anyone thinking of or actively trying to conceive I cannot recommend this book enough- it is an antidote to the fertility industry's rigid rules and guidelines, and has helped me to trust the pause and follow my intuition- a How To to regulate your nervous system, step away from the panic of doing and find your individual right path to your future family, and enjoy your life along the way!❤️ 💙 💜
