Why Practice Yoga During Pregnancy
As one Mama said “First off I am NOT a yoga fan whatsoever, but my doctor suggested it so I took a class. I went home, was completely relaxed and slept way better than I have been.”
The number one reason women decide to attend a prenatal yoga class is because they hear it helps reduce discomfort with pregnancy. The number one reason women continue to return because they get SO MUCH more than improved comfort. There are both physical and mental preparations required to bring new life into the world and if you find a yoga class that is specifically designed for prenatal you’ll quickly find so many benefits!!
“Full Circle Yoga KC really help me during my pregnancy. I started going when I was 17 wks, and continued going till I delivered. Full Circle helped me physically and mentally. When I was feeling uncomfortable in my body as it grew, yoga would help me stretch it out and reconnect with it. I met many great mamas there, which provide a warm and understanding community. I would highly recommend this studio to any women embarking on this adventure. I personally am looking forward now to the BYOB classes with my little girl. Thank you Full Circle.” -Brittany
Prenatal yoga creates space for your mind to be open and clear. It allows your heart and mind to tap into the already courageous and powerful YOU.
“I feel supported by this strong group of women. I am confident that the mental and physical techniques I have learned in prenatal yoga will help me in my birthing experience.” -Amanda
The feels that came with pregnancy can be overwhelming. Prenatal yoga offers space to tap into those raw feelings, face them and master them. When a safe and relaxing space is created with others experiencing similar emotions it normalizes feelings and allows us to show compassion and understanding to others and ourselves.
” It has helped me control my anxiety and calm my mind” – Swatantra
“I finally became pregnant after a long journey with IVF. The beginning of my pregnancy was filled with complications, so by the time I discovered Full Circle Yoga KC my anxiety and stress was at an all-time high. Jenny’s classes helped me manage the anxiety, find a sense of community, and finally be able to enjoy the last few months of my pregnancy” -Meredith
Practicing yoga during pregnancy certainly eases the discomforts of pregnancy. But it also eases the pain during labor and delivery through training and trusting the powerful strength our bodies have to birth.
“Giving birth is a powerful life event. It no only leave us with memories of welcoming our children into the world but also often affects the way we feel about our bodies and our capabilities” – Debra Pascali-Bonard.
