When you begin to practise yoga regularly, you have taken a very important step towards positive living. This is especially helpful when you are pregnant as your body is providing the very first surrounding for your baby.
Honour your pregnancy and the essential work you are doing by giving yourself and your baby the time and attention you both need, practising a little yoga every day.

This will help you to feel more in touch with you inner self and discovering and accept the power to give birth and to nurture your baby lies within yourself.
Yoga teaches you to breathe naturally and normally becoming aware of your own rhythm and helping to centre yourself and feel grounded even in the intensity of the sensations when you are in labour.
