2. MEDITATEMeditation clears the mind and

allows us to be at one with ourselves. Starting with 15

minutes a day, sit quietly in a quiet corner and just observe

your breath, focus on a picture or a flame. Let your thoughts gently float away and your body slowly

relax. If you can't sit for 15 minutes, do other forms of

'meditation' that allow your mind to relax - such as deep breathing,

painting, knitting or walking.

3. HANG OUT WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS

There's nothing better than being with people you love.

But be careful not to be around toxic people, people who stress you out. Joining a support group allows you to talk to people in the same

boat and sometimes, knowing how strong others are will also give you strength and

inspiration.

6. TIME OUT

Lots of couples come back from holiday and find that they are pregnant. This is because you are relaxed while on vacation. You are also spending quality time with each other. Choose a holiday

that suits you. Some people find lying on a beach relaxing while others like trekking in the

fresh mountain air. Still others prefer a shopping holiday or one that includes an activity they

enjoy. The choice is yours.

7. LAUGHWatch funny movies, go to comedies, read books that

make you laugh. I'm sure you've heard of the saying that

laughter is the best medicine. It keeps you in a good mood, it

enforces a positive attitude and it definitely relaxes you. In order to conceive, you must learn to

relax. Put aside some of the less important things that you have

to do and make time for yourself and each other.
