If the announcement comes face to face and unexpectedly this can cause even more heartache and that sinking feeling in your stomach. When I was asking my community what it felt like for them, the words painted such a visceral and heartbreaking picture: 'time stands still; sound goes like I'm about to faint; like I've been punched in the throat"

We are expected to be able to cover this up immediately of course which is incredibly challenging; all this to then have to deal with huge guilt for feeling anything other than joy for someone else’s happy news.

What you’ve been through is incredibly hard. Give yourself this time to wrap yourself in comfort. You can download this and save it for whenever you need it. As soon as you hear a pregnancy announcement, just remember this meditation and listen to it again and again, as many times as you need.

You'll hear about 5 minutes of guided meditation with music followed by a further 4 minutes of piano meditation music.

The worksheet will help elevate this self development time for yourself by beginning to dismantle the trigger so easily set off with announcements and help you to identify and release your more difficult feelings and discover how to feel more free and relaxed.

Take care,
