Could a Reset Help Balance your Work, Life and Fertility Demands?

And create the perfect conditions for getting pregnant with a supportive and rejuvenating getaway

Picture yourself this November dropping into lush picturesque forest, unplugging from the www. and plugging into natures Wood Wide Web 😊 🌳 And feeling in every cell of your body that life is ready to take place.

You’ve settled into your room, come down the stairs to the open fire place and can sense your body expand in anticipation. “We are all here, all desiring to have a baby”. You know you can talk openly, candidly and connect with incredible humans who are ready for parenthood.  You can FEEL the joy of being pregnant, and trust in your body’s ability to make it happen.

You have the internal blueprint to make this happen. Your path to pregnancy is unique, and the longer the journey takes, the more doubts and fears start to creep in. You might be asking yourself, “When will it be my turn?” It is easy to feel discouraged, but here’s the truth: you have the power within you to conceive. You were made for this. Even though the statistics say 1 in 6 people are infertile – the reality is most are experiencing delayed fertility – not infertility. The key lies in creating the right conditions and accessing the miracle window for your precious baby to land. 

Have you been looking for a sign to rejuvenate your fertile body-mind-spirit connection, and balance out any lifestyle factors from a clear guided place?

Let this be your sign, your holy sacred invitation to join me. This transformative retreat is your gateway to a healthier balanced lifestyle, improved fertility, and ignite the deep, intimate connection that sparks the miracle of conception.

Embark on this transformational experience in a luxurious bushland setting and rejuvenate yourself…

🌹  Where you can unplug from daily busy life, juggling work and fertility appointments, rug up by the fireplace, eat the most delectable food whilst having conversations of inspiration with other people

🌹  Create a personalised Fertility Blueprint with the teachings and workshops that are filled with science backed wisdom, hormonal optimisation and lifestyle habits that collectively make a huge difference to your health and the blueprint health that your baby will inherit from you….and have access to 1:1 with the fertility practitioners

🌹 Feel the synergy weaving with your spirituality, sexuality, physicality, and emotional regulation and experience your body’s optimal fertile health in just a few days….

🌹 Learn the practices and skills to enhance intimacy, communication, and support which up levels your relationship in preparation for parenthood….

🌹 Experience a Rite of Passage Ceremony into parenthood that wont leave a dry eye in the room.  

I am here to remind you to never let fear or uncertainty hinder your path to parenthood.

Let me guide you towards your dream of having your baby nestled in your arms. Suited to:

  • Women in their fertile years who wish to have a healthy pregnancy and baby through holistic fertility enhancement.

  • Women with predisposed health conditions where their medical health professional has recommended diet and lifestyle change for getting pregnant. 

  • Women preparing to freeze their eggs and want to optimise their outcomes. Preconception planning for healthy eggs is recommended.

Client Testimonial from Cat and Doug, Melbourne Australia

HelenZee.com brothers-and-sister--250x250

“Both Doug and I were fortunate to have a liberating second pregnancy and stronger relationship. Without hospitalisation. Without IVF. Without caesarean and feeling more healthy. We worked with Helen for five months before we conceived. Our first pregnancy took four years and copious amounts of IVF. We managed to feel empowered, close and the natural way of conceiving. And we got to enjoy each other so much more in creating little Zoe, brother for Luke.”

 

Client Testimonial from Kirstin Green, 27 Kentucky USA

“Before meeting you I was blindly fighting my way through sadness, anger, PCOS and fear of infertility. I was desperate to get pregnant and I was overwhelmed, questioning to the point of what food to put in my mouth. But your knowledge, encouragement and infectious sense of peace, I became to see my PCOS diagnosis as a journey where the destination would be so much sweeter than what I could have imagined. The calmness meant my husband was more relaxed around me and we were able to enjoy the intimacy to parenthood again. And that was a relief!”

I liken IVF to gambling, it’s like pouring money into a machine with no guarantee you will ever win while it slowly takes an agonising toll on you. I realised at 43, I had less than a 3% chance of having a baby. It was time for a change in tack. I met Helen who opened my eyes to how the subconscious can affect fertility, and how the physical, mental, and spiritual realms work in unison. I realised that I had been focusing on only half the equation with IVF. My hope began to return. Helen took me through a number of processes to help heal the blockages that had been built up over the years. During a womb alignment process, I was finally able to fully grieve the loss of a past pregnancy. I made peace with past partners and connected with my spirit babies. 

By the third and final cycle, I was on 14 different medications, but I had surrendered fully to the process. I remember the day so clearly when the nurse called me…finally pregnant at 45 to twins!! I experienced the joy reserved for motherhood”.

Client Testimonial from, Judy Payne, 45yo Melbourne, Australia
HelenZee.com Thi-and-Angeline-Xmas

“Helen is amazing and so passionate in helping people to have their dream child. After losing my first baby at 20 weeks due to incompetent cervix in December 2019, I was so devastated. It was my first pregnancy after 7 years of IVF. A year later, my natural healer recommended me to read the book “Consciously Conceive Your Baby” written by Helen Zee. After that, my husband and I contacted Helen and we had a 2 day private session with her on December 2020. I got pregnant 3 months after. Our daughter is one year old. Thanks Helen, for being an important part of my journey into motherhood. We are forever grateful for your guidance, caring and love.”

Client Testimonial from, Kieu Ngyuen

I didn’t realise how much the stress and anxiousness was affecting my cycles. Taking on Helen’s advice and protocol helped me shape up, destress and reactivate my normal periods. My doctor asked me what I did differently! I was able to put my IVF journey behind me. After 3 years, I was finally pregnant at 44 and felt blissful and graced with good health and a healthy daughter. 

Tracey

My partner and I felt totally supported and guided to share deeper with one another and trust we were heard and understood. Helen’s caring nature made it easy it easy to discuss our intimacy concerns and work on them to create the change we needed. Her notes and guidance allowed us to incorporate intimacy practices around the fertility cycle. This has unlocked the blocks and got us back on track. We are re-enjoying each other, feel stronger than ever and are creating this baby out of pure love again. 🙏 

Connie and Hector

This is a fertility and health wellbeing program that goes so much deeper. I’ve learned women’s knowledge that I just didn’t get from my upbringing. Helen’s physiological knowledge has also been so revealing and instructive. There is so much to learn about our bodies. I know how to tune into my body, and advocate for myself better at medical appointments.

What sort of food will be served?2024-06-19T11:43:37+10:00

Synergy Fertility Retreats has outstanding, freshly prepared food. For this retreat, we have both a plant and animal based menu. All food has been selected with fertility nutritional recommendations as published by Nutrition Australia, to give you a taste of how amazing your body can feel when you eat the right amounts and foods. There is also an educational seminar on food for fertility. 

What does the post retreat support include?2024-07-19T17:17:35+10:00

Integration post retreat is important. People can go through big shifts and gather the information that’s needed to make sustainable changes. But we want to avoid what I call “shelf development”. I created the post retreat support group do you can keep on track, be inspired to ask questions and the support you need thats unique to you. One month support is included.

Support is in the form of fortnightly zoom call in a group setting. This includes coaching on specific information you would like addressed. Plus I will cover topics relevant to implementing your transformations.

You have unlimited 1:1 support via email directly with Helen Zee.

Included are workbooks and online resources/courses that you learnt at the retreat.

How do I get from the airport to the Don Valley?2024-06-12T15:51:24+10:00

The most convenient option is to rent a car and drive yourself. An affordable option is to take the Sky Bus to Southern Cross Station and then a train to Lilydale Station. You can uber/taxi from there, or I can organise a carpool option with other travellers at an additional cost of $30 per person. 

Do I need to participate in all of the activities listed on the itinerary?2024-06-12T15:51:41+10:00

While you are not required to participate in all of the activities, we do encourage you to do so in order to get the most out of your time there. There is downtime built into each day so that you can have time for yourself.

What are the benefits of a fertility massage? And can my partner access a massage too?2024-07-19T17:21:10+10:00

Definitely. Please take the time to read the following:

Fertility massages are known to be highly beneficial for reproductive health. When reproductive organs shift out of proper position, they can constrict normal flow of blood, lymph and nerve connections. When working with women, we can gently help shift the uterus back into place to support natural flow. Homeostasis (or the natural internal balance of the body) is brought back to the pelvic area and surrounding organs. Toxins are flushed, nutrients are flowing and hormones are balanced. This is essential for conception.

There is also male massages available which will be carried out by our in house masseuse.

Massages are at an additional cost and can be paid for as an optional extra in the check out cart.

What should I pack for this Retreat?2024-06-12T15:52:37+10:00

We suggest you dress for comfort. We’ll be on the property during the Retreat so there won’t be any fancy dinners to get dressed up for. It is winter so warm clothes are recommended for outdoors. We’ll have daily yoga or fitness classes so come prepared with comfortable clothes to work out in. Bring runners/hiking boots as you’ll want to walk the lovely property during the day and bring a jacket so you can sit out at night by the fire pit to enjoy the stars. Only slippers/socks allowed indoors. 

The retreat supplies good quality toiletries if you want to leave yours at home.

Can I bring my partner? Can I come on my own?2024-06-24T21:50:33+10:00

Yes. And yes! We want to be inclusive as much as we can. Fertility and the creation of a precious human requires both a male and female reproductive system (I know it sounds clinical!) The health of the egg and sperm is paramount to creating a healthy baby. You are passing on your epigenetic genome of health as a life gift. 

We also know that of all infertility cases, approximately 40–50% is due to “male factor” infertility, yet 100% of the treatment is female centric when assisted reproductive therapies and IVF is involved. 

We encourage your partners to come. The program supports human reproductive health and habits. 

If you want to come on your own as a woman, you are welcome. We work with and support women on the solo journey to parenthood. It is something both Nora and I are passionate about.
