PRENATAL YOGA poses.

3/6/2017

When I was pregnant with my second, yoga made such a difference for me. I was able to get rid of bad sciatica, hip, back, and circulation pain. I can't express enough the importance of yoga during this vital time in life. There are so many changes your body goes through that it requires a lot of effort to keep up and stay on track ...and yoga is an EASY way to do it. 

​Below are some great prenatal yoga poses. If you have any questions or concerns about any of them, don't hesitate to comment below or contact me.
Tadasana (or mountain pose) is usually the starting pose for most routines. This one is great for pregnancy and sciatic pain. Sciatic pain is due to pressure on the sciatic nerve from the baby's head. Usually this happens from sitting a lot during pregnancy. Mountain Pose can alleviate this pain by correcting your posture and remove that pressure from the baby.

Ustrasana (or Camel Pose) can be pretty intense. But here is a simple modification to start with. This was my favorite pose while I was pregnant. It releases pressure in the hips and lower back. Seriously... this one comes very highly recommended for those pregnant and not. 
Love this little Buddah Squat (Malasana)! Spread those feet and take those hips down! This one really helps with stretching and strengthening the hips, groin, ankles, hamstrings, back, neck, and pelvis. (Whew that's a lot!) It also helps with your digestion too! Which is very needed when you're pregnant. Always remember to listen to your body and never push yourself too far.

This is just a continuation from the Squat above, except we're adding a twist. It's a bit more intense. So again... remember to listen to your body.
Pigeon Pose helped me a lot in my pregnancy. I had a lot of pain in my hips. Remember to do both sides... right leg bent with left leg straight behind you, then switch legs. You can tuck your front foot underneath your pelvis or work to get your shin parallel with the front of your mat. After your legs are in place, slowly lower the chest down. Hold it for as long as you feel you need it.
