Finding time to exercise will help you to recover from the birth and feel less overwhelmed by the changes and challengers your new baby has brought into your world. A well-exercised body has better circulation and this will increase your energy and lessen fatigue, irritability and depression. Specific yoga postures can help ease postnatal depression.
Breathing exercises help keep you calm and composed and tap into your intrinsic inner wisdom. Emotionally you recover quicker because exercise can help stabilize hormones and as your body tones and slims, you feel better about yourself and much happier in general – AND – its nice to get out and meet other mothers who are going through the same or similar experiences as you.
Pelvic Floor Health – pregnancy and difficult labours can damage the muscles of the pelvic floor, leading to incontinence or urine leakage. Specific exercises to help heal or control this problem are taught in our postnatal classes.
The experienced and well sought after pre/postnatal yoga teacher, Colleen will be teaching it.
