Manifesting Motherness: Healing from Infertility

Infertility is devastating. Emotionally and psychologically taxing, it changes our lives forever whether or not we eventually become parents. For many women, it’s a battle that lasts years. But what if it’s more than that? What if infertility isn’t a war, but an awakening? In her debut book, part autobiography and part how-to guide, Rekha Ramcharan writes about her four-year long infertility experience and the healing journey she travelled. Astonishingly, she finally fell pregnant naturally at 45 after multiple failed fertility treatments. In this thoughtful book, she shares her personal realisations and the model she created - which includes the spiritual principles of the Enneagram - to help herself and others on the same path. If you’re over 35 – or over 40 - and have tried every expensive and arduous infertility treatment without success, this may be the book for you. It’s the unique perspective of a woman who turned a painful path into an integrative process that created joy and peace. She started out wanting to manifest a pregnancy and ended up creating what she calls “motherness”, the inner state in which the joys we associate with motherhood are accessible; a state which she believes gave rise to her experience of motherhood.Written with a quirky sense of humour that balances the heartbreak and emotiveness of failing to conceive, this book is a must-read for strong women almost undone by infertility, but feeling that there must be a purpose which has thus far eluded them in this experience . With exercises and healing processes intermingled throughout the story, this is a map to help you heal yourself emotionally, psychologically and perhaps, eventually, even physically so that pregnancy becomes possible.
