Prenatal Practices
Prenatal yoga can be a powerful tool to empower and support birthing people to feel comfortable in their bodies during an uncomfortable time where your body is growing and shifting on the daily. During this sacred time you are forming a new relationship with your body and baby, and you will experience a range of emotions and feelings.
Prenatal yoga can assist in managing these feelings and stressors, create an opportunity to take care of your body and mind, give you more opportunity to take part in creating a nurturing environment for the baby, and prepare for the journey of labor, delivery, and parenthood. The benefits span through all these stages, not just labor.
