"During pregnancy, the mother's diet, lifestyle, environment, and mental/emotional states influence and even alter the growing baby's lifelong constitution" - Dr. Vasant Lad, Textbook of Ayurveda, Vol. 1
Pregnancy is such a beautiful time and opportunity to go within...
To get in touch with your Self and this new Being growing inside of you.
Eating right and having the right lifestyle during these special times influences the way you experience your pregnancy greatly.
Getting the appropriate nutrients through food is one thing, but also how your emotional body is fed must be addressed.
As the body is undergoing great transformation, and preparing for quite a physical challenge, the body must be prepared appropriately. It needs to be strong, yet relaxed.
Through yoga, we build the body and also learn how to relax the body in deeper ways, allowing for you and baby to grow and adjust to the changes happening within.
By practicing yoga, meditation, breathing exercises and other techniques for relaxation, the body and the mind will be strong and ready to receive our new little wonders in our life!
