Asana Mama’s fertility and preconception program focuses on mind, body and soul.
We know the importance of supporting all systems within the body. The digestive system, endocrine system, nervous system, circulatory and cardiovascular system, lymphatic system, detoxification system, and more. We focus on caring for all these systems to optimize health, in addition to implementing a heavy priority on working with the mind.
If you are working on your physical self, but not nurturing your emotional and mental wellbeing, you could be doing yourself a disservice in your journey to bringing your body into balance. Our team also focuses on providing tools to support the health of your emotions and mind through curated private meditation sessions, solution-based hypnotherapy sessions, energy healing, CBT mindset coaching and other holistic modalities.
This way, we support all aspects of your life so that you can optimize your health in every way possible.
Working with Asana Mama’s Preconception team
Your first appointment with your Naturopathic Doctor:
When working with our team at Asana Mama, you will first meet with one of our Naturopathic Doctor partners for an initial appointment (60 minutes) that will go over your health history, current circumstances, goals, eating habits and current lifestyle practices. From there, your doctor may suggest specific lab tests to see what is going on within your body. If you are in network with Quest or Healthlabs, insurance may cover your tests. Other functional tests may be suggested and are an additional fee.
Your second appointment with your Certified Integrative Nutrition Consultant & Coach:
You will then meet with our Integrative Nutrition Consultant and Holistic Facilitator to discuss your eating habits and lifestyle habits in detail. Together, you will start working on a preliminary plan of action to bring your body into balance to prepare for pregnancy as you await your lab results. This plan will include nutrition shifts, lifestyle practices, stress / emotional management through personalized techniques decided between you and your facilitator, at home therapies to incorporate and more.
Your third appointment - reviewing your labs, or crafting your plan:
Once your lab results are back, you will have a follow up appointment with your Naturopathic Doctor to go over any findings and to create a supplement protocol in addition to nutrition and lifestyle shifts that need to be made. Your Naturopathic Doctor will know and understand what targeted supplements will help your unique circumstances, and will help you narrow down what you are including in your protocol so that you are taking only what you need.
Your fourth appointment - troubleshooting and tailoring your health plan
Your second appointment with your nutrition consultant and holistic facilitator will be scheduled to go over your personalized health plan made collaboratively between your Naturopathic Doctor and your facilitator. Your program will be personalized and tailored to your exact needs, whether it’s preparing your body for pregnancy, detoxing excess estrogen from birth control, or eliminating toxins to create a fertile environment.
Together, we will set goals and set action steps and habit formation strategies that will help you achieve your goals.

We are your accountability partner to provide continuing guidance, inspiration, support, and behavior change coaching so that you can realistically achieve the lifestyle changes needed for you to reach your goals.
