It creates a nurturing space for the growing baby and fosters a joyful, positive experience for the mother-to-be. Prenatal yoga focuses on specific poses, breathing techniques, and relaxation practices that prepare women both physically and mentally for the journey of pregnancy and childbirth.

When to Start Prenatal Yoga?

It's essential to consult your healthcare provider before beginning yoga, especially if you've had a sedentary lifestyle or are experiencing a high-risk pregnancy (e.g., twin or multiple pregnancies). Most women avoid starting prenatal yoga in the first trimester due to the significant physiological changes and adjustments their bodies are undergoing. Miscarriages during this time are often due to chromosomal or uterine abnormalities, unrelated to external factors.

Traditional wisdom sees pregnancy as the presence of a new soul. Yoga during this time strengthens the vitality and cosmic connection between the mother and the baby. Key practices include maintaining vitality, fostering happiness, and focusing on breathing and meditation.

Yoga Practices by Trimester

First Trimester (1-13 Weeks) : Adaptation Phase

A time of physical and emotional adjustment with the highest risk of miscarriage.

Key practices:  Deep relaxation, stress-free living, proper nutrition, and good sleep.

Focus: Stress management through slow breathing, relaxation techniques, and meditation.

Second Trimester (14-27 Weeks) : Well-Being Phase

The body has adjusted, and this period usually has fewer complications.

Key practices:   Gentle stretching in motion with breath (Pranakriya style), deep breathing, and meditation.

Depending on individual health, poses like Warrior and hip-openers can be introduced.

Third Trimester (28-40 Weeks) : Preparation Phase

This phase may bring discomfort due to the baby's growth.

Key practices:  Focus on maintaining quality respiration, chest breathing, and energy-preserving yogic techniques.

Continuous relaxation, meditation, and connection with the baby prepare the mother for labor and delivery.
