GIVING THANKS FOR 21 NEW SOUL LIGHTS THIS YEAR
Yule is upon us, the longest night of the year. A time where we beckon in the light and the life that grows out of the darkest of times. The yang that is birthed by the most yin. An evening for introspection and reflection. I like to spend some time counting my blessings, grateful to all those who have offered and exchanged light and deep nourishment with me and those who have allowed me to share my gifts and presence with them.
Tonight, I have a personal tradition of lighting a candle in each of my windows to mark the cycles of nature, to welcome the certain return of light and warmth, and to honour the dark depths that births it. Tonight I have a new ritual to add. 12 candles, one for each of the new babies born to my clients since last Yule. A further 9 candles for the, as yet, unborn babies conceived since last Yule, nestled in the dark nourishment of their mothers bodies.
Clinic audit data: Yule 2022 to Yule 2023. 40% of my clients were working with me for Fertility Support Acupuncture and Coaching because they wished to conceive and go on to have a live birth. 70% of those women have either given birth this year or are pregnant. That’s 12 new souls born and 9 more on the way. 71% conceived naturally and 29% through IVF. IVF success rate is 70% this year (per embryo transfer).
Perhaps you yearn for support on your journey to parenthood, an experienced and knowledgable someone to shine a light so you can find your way through the dark times of trying to conceive and find your joy. I will have space for 6 new clients from February 2024. Contact me through my website https://www.healingpartners.co.uk/.
