Taking care of a woman’s needs during the evolving stages of pregnancy and birth is crucial and necessary for her and the whole family’s wellbeing. Maintaining a regular yoga practice, while the body undergoes one of its most miraculous transformations can be invaluable.
Being a mother, or parent, besides all the beautiful moments, requires a lot of physical endurance, handling and thinking. Pauses for self reflection are crucial to one’s physical and mental health. Good techniques, time management and enjoyment are key for maintaining a yoga practice while raising children. Making time and space for self-care changes everything.
For women who are expecting or have already given birth, their caregivers, yoga teachers, doulas and bodyworkers, we will explore how to safely and adequately practice and teach yoga before, during and after pregnancy. We will cover a set of restorative poses, invigorating sequences, breath practices, short meditations and supportive adjusts for healing and energizing the body, that can all be integrated into the day of a mother or mother to be.
Expect tips and inspiration for finding time for your practice in your day as well as a three step postnatal practice to leave you feeling radiant and full of life. Geared towards women, mothers and anyone interested in learning about the miracles of life and yoga, it doesn’t matter how old your children are, this training will meet all mothers or parents where they are at.
In this training we will cover:
Fertility and the art of surrendering, how restorative yoga can help
Yoga during pregnancy, practices for the trimesters
Important precautions for yoga teachers and other supporters
The 3 postnatal phases: restoring, reshaping and building strength, practices for each phase
