Description
Our course prepares you mentally, physically and emotionally for childbirth. Breath and particular body positions are employed in the exercise and meditation practice known as yoga to help connect the mind and body. Focus is placed on poses in prenatal yoga that are tailored to the bodies of pregnant women.
When you're pregnant, common yoga postures, such those where your feet are spread widely, could be too taxing on your joints and pelvic region. Your pelvis and bladder are bearing a lot more weight as your baby grows.
Your ligaments become looser due to pregnancy hormones, aggravating joint and bone issues (particularly those involving the pubic bone). Prenatal yoga incorporates breathing, stretches, and strengthening techniques that help your body get ready for labor in addition to modified poses for pregnancy.
In this course, you will be exploring breathing techniques, pranayama methods to help your energy flow smoothly, yogic asana practices to help you through various your various trimesters and also meditation sessions to help you with grounding and relaxation. This course is conducted by Gunjan, who is a well experienced yoga teacher, prenatal yoga & breath coach, mom, home cook and author.
This course is designed for all levels, and especially women who are new to yoga practice as well. Yoga is a great exercise for all pregnant mothers, provided that your doctor has given you the go-ahead to continue being physically active during your pregnancy: Because it is soft and intended for pregnancy, it aids in preparing you for the psychological aspects of childbirth.
Who this course is for:
- Women who are in their pregnancy journey or yoga teachers who are curious to explore more about prenatal yoga practice.
