Baby Yoga will give you more confidence in handling your baby and once you’ve learnt the exercises you will be able to use them at home to continue the bonding and soothing. Bonding is encouraged through close skin to skin contact, praise, encouragement and mutual enjoyment.
Postnatal postures are used to help re-align and strengthen Mum’s body, tone abdominal and pelvic floor muscles and also balance the hormonal changes that occur after childbirth. It can also help with postnatal depression. Most importantly, the deep relaxation session at the end of the baby yoga session helps mum cope with the stress of parenting.
Even if Mum has never practiced yoga herself before, there are some deep breathing techniques she will learn during the classes that will help her relax, de-stress and hopefully sleep better.
