subject: Prenatal Yoga Workout [print this page] Do you know how to breathe properly? Before your prenatal yoga workout, you will be taught how to breathe through a technique called ujjayi. It requires you to breathe very slowly and deeply through your nose, completely filling thelower abdomen, middle abdomen and chest,before releasingyour breath completely through the nose again. By learning the breathing technique first you will see that this is going to cut down on a lot of stress before and after delivery of your baby. This breathing technique will help you during stressful situations even when you go home after delivery of your baby and when dealing with matters of life forever.
During your prenatal yoga workout you will wear loose fitting clothes for ease, and bare feet to keep balance and avoid slipping.These yoga exercises will not begin until you are in your second and third trimester. Just let your baby have a great 12 weeks of growing with you going easy on yourself before beginning the yogaexercises. Usually you will do your workout in class at least 3 times a week and if you have to miss or just can not be there your instructorcan give you or advise which yoga videos you can view and be able to do your workout at home.
The major part of yourprenatal yoga workout isgoing to consist of learning how to breathe becauseit is said that if you can learn to think of breathing in three parts, the lowerabdomen, middle abdomen and the chest, andif youcan learn to only take three to four breaths in a minute then you will be in the state of meditation. You will learn about breathing through one nostril or the other and what the right one means and whatthe left nostril means. You will also learn sitting positions and what each one means to your body.
Your prenatal yogaworkout is going tobe gentle on your body and baby but sogood foryour soul.You will learn not to lay flat to do exercises but to use a pillow under your right hip so as not to limit blood flowthrough a major vein called the vena cava to your uterus and baby. This is very important even if you are one who doesn't get dizzy and thinks this position will not affect you. It may. With the deep breathing which will relax andtake away stress and make your labormuch easier, you are on your way to a safe delivery for motherand baby.
