I believe that yoga is the best foundation to learn the mental and physical skills necessary for labor (regardless of how it unfolds). Whether you are a beginner who has never unrolled the mat, or a seasoned yogi with decades of experience, yoga can help get you aligned in mind, body and spirit.
Prenatal yoga can help you:
- Build stamina and strength (an active labor requires strong legs!)
- Master the art of surrendering mind and body
- Build a deep connection of trust in your body and your baby
- Ease common pregnancy ailments {low back pain + insomnia + pelvic pain + anxiety, etc.}
- Find deep nourishment and healing through a variety of relaxation techniques and restorative poses
- Build a community of birthers and find valuable resources (in a group class!)
I just want to chime in to let everyone know how wonderful my sessions have been with Michelle. I’ve been attending her prenatal practice sessions on Sundays for the past month. What is so nice is that she has created a community of expectant moms during this strange time of quarantine. We all practice yoga with our zoom cameras on, and we stop and unmute so that we can chat before class and in between different portions of the class. It has been a small way for me to connect with other women, and now it is the major thing I look forward to every Sunday. Michelle is a wonderful instructor, especially for someone like me who did not have a regular yoga practice before getting pregnant. We have even had our first prenatal yoga “graduate” who gave birth and shared her inspiring birth story with the group! –N, first time mom
