Can fertility hypnotherapy help me get pregnant naturally or with IVF?

The connection between mind and body has always fascinated me. Growing scientific research now supports what many of us intuitively feel - that what we think, feel, and believe can influence how our bodies function.

For those trying to conceive, this connection can be a powerful ally. Fertility hypnotherapy uses gentle, evidence-based mind-body techniques to help your body feel safe, balanced, and ready to conceive - whether naturally or with fertility treatment.

What Is Fertility Hypnotherapy?

Fertility hypnotherapy is a therapeutic approach that uses hypnosis to reduce stress, regulate hormones, and address subconscious emotional blocks that may impact conception.

When the body is under chronic stress, levels of cortisol and adrenaline rise, which can disrupt reproductive hormones like progesterone and estrogen. Hypnosis helps activate the parasympathetic nervous system - the body’s natural relaxation response - restoring balance and signalling safety.

Through calming guided visualisations and subconscious reprogramming, hypnotherapy allows you to release fear, grief, and overthinking, helping your mind and body work together rather than in conflict.

My Journey With Hypnosis and Fertility

When I was trying to conceive, I explored every possible avenue - including hypnosis.

At first, I tried a program that promised pregnancy if I just “believed enough.” Instead of relief, I felt guilt and pressure - I felt that if I wasn’t pregnant yet, I must not be positive enough.

Everything changed when I began using hypnosis not as a magic solution, but as a way to support my body through IVF - visualising each step of treatment with calm and confidence. On my second round, I conceived. Though I sadly miscarried, I fell pregnant naturally three months later while writing my own hypnosis MP3s - proof to me that mind-body alignment truly matters.

Those tracks are now part of The Embrace Fertility Hypnosis Collection.

Powerful hypnosis tracks to support you through each phase of your natural or treatment cycle - helping you feel calm, connected, and ready to get pregnant.

About Me

I’m Naomi Woolfson, founder of The Embrace Fertility Method®, and a mind-body fertility coach and therapist.

I’m trained in:

• Cognitive Hypnotherapy
  
  
• Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP)
  
  
• Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT Tapping)
  
  
• Compassionate Trauma Repair (CTR)

For over a decade, I’ve supported women around the world through infertility, miscarriage, and pregnancy - helping them release anxiety, rebuild trust in their bodies, and create the inner safety that supports conception.

How Hypnosis Works

Hypnosis is a natural state of focused awareness - something we drift in and out of daily.
Think of times when you’ve been so absorbed in reading that you didn’t hear someone call your name, or when you’ve driven home on autopilot - that’s hypnosis.

While your conscious mind handles logic and reasoning, your unconscious mind stores memories, habits, and emotional responses. It directs around 97% of your behaviour.

Many of the struggles we face - including anxiety, fear, or self-sabotaging thoughts about fertility - stem from unconscious patterns that can be gently reprogrammed through hypnotherapy.

What Is Hypnotherapy?

Hypnotherapy helps rewire these old, unhelpful patterns by guiding the mind into a relaxed, suggestible state. From there, we can introduce new, supportive beliefs that align with your goals - like trusting your body, feeling calm during IVF, or believing you can become pregnant.

It’s similar to mindfulness in that both invite presence and focus.
The difference?

• Mindfulness observes what is.
  
  
• Hypnotherapy helps you gently shift toward what you desire.

What Is Cognitive Hypnotherapy?

Cognitive Hypnotherapy combines techniques from:

• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
  
  
• Positive and Evolutionary Psychology
  
  
• EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques)
  
  
• NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming)
  
  
• Hypnosis
  
  

It’s an integrative, evidence-based approach that helps you create lasting change by addressing both conscious thought patterns and subconscious beliefs.

How Fertility Hypnotherapy Supports Conception

Working with a fertility hypnotherapist can help you:

• Reduce stress and regulate cortisol
  
  
• Improve hormonal balance and menstrual health
  
  
• Support emotional wellbeing during IVF, IUI, or natural conception
  
  
• Increase resilience during the two-week wait
  
  
• Release fear of needles, hospitals, or medical interventions
  
  
• Restore self-trust and confidence in your body
  
  
• Process grief, miscarriage, or fertility trauma
  
  
• Build healthy coping strategies for anxiety and jealousy
  
  
• Manage conditions like endometriosis and PCOS
  
  
• Support early pregnancy, birth preparation, and postpartum adjustment
  
  

When your mind and body are aligned, your entire system begins to communicate safety - and a body that feels safe is a body that is more likely to conceive.
