Lynn Jensen, Yoga for Fertility Founder & Instructor
Return to Zero: Hope Provider Spotlight
Tell us a little about the work that you do
I offer Yoga for Fertility classes for anyone trying to conceive, whether naturally or with assisted reproductive technology. Many of my students have experienced pregnancy loss, or repeat pregnancy loss, as part of their fertility journey. We work with processing and releasing grief through energy medicine, breathing practices and yoga movement, as an aspect of my classes.
Why are you passionate about serving the pregnancy and infant loss community?
As a long-time yoga practitioner and teacher, I developed the Yoga for Fertility program over 20 years ago, following my own multi-year fertility struggles.
How has RTZ impacted your work?
I often refer my students who face pregnancy loss to RTZ support groups.

Return to Zero: Hope is a community of bereaved parents, families, and providers offering inclusive resources and holistic support for anyone whose life has been touched by loss, including infertility, secondary infertility, miscarriage, ending a wanted pregnancy, stillbirth, infant or toddler death, loss through surrogacy or failed adoption.
Provider interactions during pregnancy and infant loss have a lifelong impact on a family’s healing and wellbeing. RTZ Hope supports organizations and individuals who work with parents who have experienced perinatal loss, including hospitals, clinics, health providers, midwives, doulas, lactation consultants, mental health clinicians, peer advocates, and support organizations. We partner with health professionals to ensure they have the training, emotional support, and resources they need to confidently care for families at one of the most tragic moments of their journey towards parenthood.
This year alone, we've sent over $3000 in grief and loss material samples to health providers so they are more resourced and empowered to support bereaved families. Will you donate and help us continue to get these resources into the hands of those that need them?
