In 2009, Fraser Davis Press published my book, Hopeful Heart,
Peaceful Mind: Managing Infertility. I wrote the book to address
the challenges that couples and individuals experience during
infertility and to provide practical solutions for managing them. I
discuss ways for couples to experience intimacy and rekindle the
pleasurable sex they shared before infertility. They will learn how
to communicate effectively as they make important decisions about
medical treatment and whether to share information with family and
friends. Each chapter contains personal stories from my
psychotherapy clients and support groups. These stories are intended
to provide wisdom and inspiration.
As an infertility
counselor and author, I blend traditional psychotherapy and
alternative treatments. My book explains various techniques to
practice and incorporate into daily life to improve physical,
emotional, mental and spiritual health and create inner peace. These
practices include yoga, relaxation, visualization, meditation,
mindful breathing, and music evoked imagery.
I encourage family
members and friends to read this book so they can become educated
about infertility and learn how to best give support and comfort.
This innovative and informative book should be sitting on the
bedside table of the 7.3 million people who are experiencing
infertility to give them what they most yearn for during their
journey to build a family—a Hopeful Heart, a Peaceful Mind and the
practices to promote health and healing.

“Carol
Jones has written a gem of a book for women and men dealing with infertility.
Based on personal experience, enhanced by professional excellence,
and laced with powerful anecdotes, this
book provides comprehensive, practical yet sensitive advice.
It is straightforward and readable, but also innovative and
holistic, and provides a useful glossary of fertility terms and
information on additional helpful resources. It is a must-read.”

“This powerful book is a must-read for infertility patients; Carol
Jones has a wealth of knowledge to share. For the last twenty years,
she has helped hundreds of my patients cope with the emotional
roller coaster of infertility treatment and make the decisions that
are right for them. Carol brings to the subject a different
perspective, that of someone who has successfully dealt with her own
struggle with infertility. This book reminds patients that it is
important to take care of themselves and to remain centered
throughout the journey to reach the goal of family building.”
