Prenatal Yoga
There are many benefits of practicing yoga during pregnancy, including reduced stress, improved sleep, plus increased strength and endurance. Yoga is also an excellent preparation for your mind and body for birth.
In the words of my beautiful teacher, Lori Lucas, yoga teaches you how to "relax on purpose". During the birth process, purposeful relaxation helps open up your body and allows for rest in between each wave.
Postpartum Yoga
Similar to prenatal yoga there are incredible benefits to practicing yoga after baby arrives. These benefits include getting back in touch with your core, elevating strain from long feeding sessions, plus engaging and increasing muscle tone in the pelvic floor.
Yoga also helps reduce overall stress and assists in restoring your hormonal balance.
