More info on Prenatal Yoga:
 
 

First and foremost, any body movement during pregnancy is of great importance to the health of the mother and child. Prenatal yoga works within the body’s guidelines, which is why many mothers-to-be find it to be the perfect exercise to continue through pregnancy. The fluid poses are designed to respect any limitations while still maximizing the many benefits of the practice, such as:

  • Increased circulation
  • Toned muscles
  • Improved mobility
  • Maintaining physical and mental balance

The deep breathing necessary for working through these yoga poses properly is another benefit to prenatal yoga. Understanding how to use breath to manage pain, tension and stress will be helpful during labor and childbirth.

 

Prenatal Yoga Precautions

To ensure your helath and safety, and that of your baby, consult your health practitioner before starting a prenatal yoga program, and consider the following before starting a routine:

  • If you’ve been practicing yoga for some time, recognize that you will not be able to perform some of your normal routine as your pregnancy advances.
