Pregnancy yoga

YOGA FOR PREGNANCY

Whether you have practiced before or not, yoga has many benefits for you and your little one(s).

Around 12 weeks is a good time to start. Please check with your midwife, doula, or doctor first.

FOUR BENEFITS OF YOGA FOR PREGNANCY

1.You’ll get to meet other pregnant women. If you connect with more women on the journey to motherhood you will feel supported.

2.Prenatal yoga is gentle. It reduces stress hormone levels, and less cortisol production means less anxiety for you. Through yoga you can train your body to relax.

3.Bringing a baby into the world is extraordinary. Yoga will increase your flexibility to get you ready for labour.

4.Breathwork soothes the nervous system. Yoga also improves blood flow to the heart, providing your unborn(s) with oxygen-rich blood to assist with healthy development in the womb.

ABOUT ME

When I was pregnant it felt exciting, miraculous, and I felt scared too: all at once. There were cravings for bon-bons too: only the lemon flavoured ones would do me! If I was pregnant again I’d practice some gentle yoga techniques every day for sure.

ABOUT THE COURSE

Planning is in progress for February-March pregnancy yoga in Listowel and Tralee. I look forward to meeting you for a gorgeous, gentle experience to benefit you and the little one(s). Groups are kept small for a calm, intimate atmosphere: only eight women per class. Previous yoga experience is not required.
