A set of 36 compassion focused reminders to facilitate healing from the trauma of infertility, completed with baby buddha (ojizo) illustration. Printer friendly white background.

• Infertility is more than a physical condition. Not being able to conceive naturally can shatter and take away one’s identity as a parent, disrupt one’s hopes and dreams of entering parenthood and threaten one’s sense and expectation of family continuity. As a result, the emotional impact it brings is no less than other traumatic life events.
• However, the impact of infertility often goes unnoticed because it is not seen: one looks completely healthy despite struggling and grieving inside. An apparently innocent question about plan of having a baby from unsuspecting people around could further rub salt in the wound.
• These cards are designed to facilitate people coping with infertility to approach their pain in a more balanced mindset with an accepting and self-compassionate attitude. They are written based on the rationale that while there is no quick fix to trauma, self-compassion could guide us through the healing journey.
• Use as reminders to cope with triggers or rumination in day to day life while healing from the traumatic impact of infertility or as cue cards for compassionate letter writing to facilitate healing.
