This ten minute guided meditation and breathing exercise, takes you through a focussed seated practice, which can help to improve stress or anxiety levels and aid sleep. This is great to tag on at the beginning or end of one of the up to tag on to one of the active practices.
Yoga in pregnancy offers fantastic benefits to your health and wellbeing. It can help with strength and toning and help prevent excessive weight gain in pregnancy and unlike other forms of exercise can bring positive benefits for your mental health, bringing a sense of calm and relaxation in to your day. Studies have shown practising can reduce the chance of developing raised blood pressure and having a smaller baby.
Other teachers in group classes may advise against practice prior to 12 weeks, this is not because yoga should cause any harm to your baby, but due to the increased risk of miscarriage in the first trimester, which exists in all pregnancies. Please bear this in mind when deciding to carry out your practice.
