Let’s be honest: this journey can feel like being on a rollercoaster you didn’t sign up for. One minute you’re cautiously hopeful, the next you’re consulting Dr. Google at 3AM, and then sometimes you’re just numb because you’re so tired of it all. And that’s completely normal – because this stuff is hard.
That’s where meditation can quietly sneak in and help – not by “fixing” anything (we wish), but by making the ride just a little less brutal.
When you’re constantly waiting, worrying, grieving, or hoping, your body is basically running on high alert all the time – like it’s trying to dodge invisible dodgeballs. Meditation helps whisper to your brain:
Here’s how it helps:
Your stress hormones (hi cortisol) can finally chill out.
Your nervous system gets to move from DEFCON 1 to maybe like… DEFCON 3.
Your breathing slows, your muscles relax, your mind gets a tiny break from overthinking things like ovulation calendars, test results, and the general unfairness of it all.
You can sit there, breathe, have 100 random thoughts about nothing, and that still counts. That’s part of the magic. You’re not trying to become a peaceful unicorn – you’re just giving your brain a chance to stop spinning its wheels for a few minutes.
And sometimes, those few minutes are the only thing between “I’m barely holding it together” and “okay, I can get through today.”
No, meditation won’t change test results. It won’t make the waiting shorter. But it gives you tiny pockets of peace inside a really heavy storm. And sometimes, that’s the best kind of medicine we’ve got.
We’re right here with you.

“Just a huge thank you from the bottom of my heart. A friend gave me your book a few days after my TFMR and reading it scraped me off the emotional floor. It validated all of the contradictory emotions I was feeling and made me feel so much less alone.”
