Pregnancy may be one of the happiest phases in a woman’s life, but there is no denying the fact that the stress and strains it puts a woman’s body through are immense. Most women struggle with common day-to-day activities after giving birth as the body is still recovering from the rigors of pregnancy and labour. Yoga is extremely beneficial and can help recover from the effects of childbirth smoothly. The moves you’ll find in these sessions are generally low intensity and modified in some way to address your postpartum body and any weaknesses you may have after giving birth. Postnatal yoga patterns designed by OM YOGA to tone your stretched-out abs, strengthen your weak pelvic floor, and relieve your aching back, all while nurturing your exhausted spirit. After all, sleepless nights and long feeding hours can be taxing.
Some classes go as far as to incorporate newborns into the mix by teaching new moms how to massage their little ones or hold them properly so that they take some of the strain off of their neck and shoulders.
