Description: Prenatal yoga is a practice to create a sacred time and space for both the expecting mother and the baby. The practice of yoga is an invitation to connect the mother’s vibrant generative life force to that of the growing life force inside her. It offers an environment in which the mother can cultivate a deeper connection to the process of transformation that is occurring. The time spent in a prenatal yoga class empowers a woman to create a connection with her baby, and the poses support easier labor and delivery as well as postpartum recovery. It is important for mothers to work with a teacher who is knowledgeable and certified in teaching yoga to the pregnant population.
