Pregnancy is often referred to as a unique condition, but it shouldn't be a painful one. Yoga can support you and help you enjoy this beautiful and unforgettable period. This book will guide you through your entire pregnancy and postnatal period with ease from a yoga practice perspective. Being more in touch with not only your body but also your mind is more important than ever during this time, not least for connecting with your baby.
The book is suitable for both beginners and more advanced yoginis and is divided into simple yoga sequences according to themes (yoga routines for energy, strength, release, relaxation, calming) or according to difficulties that may often occur during pregnancy (yoga for better digestion, against swelling, against fatigue, for releasing the back and hips, for nausea). Every woman can choose the routine that is suitable for her and her body on a particular day, according to her needs and mood.
In addition, we will show you which yoga props can be used appropriately during pregnancy and how. The book also includes meditation and breathing techniques designed specifically for pregnant women to calm the mind, prepare for childbirth, and visualise a connection with the baby. You can also supplement your yoga practice with aromatherapy and learn which aromatherapy oils are suitable and helpful during pregnancy, childbirth, and the postnatal period.
Take care of your body during pregnancy and give it everything it needs – release, strength, flexibility, softening, more energy, regeneration, conscious breathing, and attention.
The author draws on her experience from leading yoga classes for pregnant women, as well as from her own regular practice during pregnancy.
