Mindfulness Through Motherhood
Live Digital Pregnancy – Summer Program starts in June- join now!
There’s a very long list of technical do’s and don’ts for practising yoga when you are pregnant. But one thing is for certain, yoga is a safe and effective exercise for pregnant women. It can even provide relief during pregnancy and help prepare your body for labor and delivery.
Everyone has favourites right? In my latest practice on YouTube I share a 30-minute pregnancy yoga flow suitable for all trimesters. In this flow I’ve brought together some of my favourite prenatal yoga movements that I teach weekly in my pregnancy yoga classes. These are movements that you can practice daily to prepare for birth, and it’s a shorter practice that you incorporate whenever you can. Safe for the first, second and third trimester.
I began climbing as a cross training for my yoga practice, looking for physical training to balance my softer yoga practice. But, the first time I walked into a climbing gym I was surprised to see mindful movements all around. I was surrounded by a moving meditation. Each climber was thoughtful, inquisitive and connected as they moved up the wall. And if something went wrong it was a chance to take a moment and reflect, to discover the undiscovered. The physical movements were a delicate balance between strength, balance and agility. Let’s just say I was hooked.
