Yoga is a great way to improve your physical, emotional and mental well being.

Therefore, it is best to start yoga for pregnant women right from the first

trimester itself. They can pick and choose from different forms of yoga which

come with numerous benefits.

Prenatal yoga is considered as the best choice for mom-to-be. Treated as a great

way to prepare for childbirth, it helps them to relax and stay fit. Moreover, it

helps them to prepare for labour and promote their baby’s health inside their

womb.

Given below are a few special safety guidelines, which will help you stay healthy by

opting for pregnancy yoga practises and also for baby yoga after the child birth.

1. Talk to your physician beforehand. It is important to have conversation with

health care provider before you start taking yoga for pregnant women classes,

especially if you are doing it on your own using a DVD.

2. Do opt for moderate physical exercise for 30 minutes at least per day.

However, if you go for shorter workouts in a day, it will too help you to stay in

shape and prepare for labour.

getting overheated and help you calm down. Make sure that you have plenty of

fluids while practicing it. This will help you to keep yourself hydrated.

a point to avoid positions that are beyond your comfort. Avoid overdoing it. This

also holds true when you opt for baby yoga after the birth of your child.
