Yoga Exercises For Pregnant Women
from: Mike SinghPregnant women can definitely benefit from doing yoga. The
experience is one in which you can focus on what is happening
within your body, relieve the stresses from worry and anxiety as
well as keep your body in shape during this time. Pregnancy is a
time of great risk though, so any and all exercises performed
during this time need to be done with great care. At any time
that you feel that you have overdone it, stop and rest. Make
sure to ask your doctor if yoga is safe for you during pregnancy
especially if you have any complications during it.
Exercises You Can Enjoy And Reap Benefits From
Yoga breathing: Probably the most important aspect to the
pregnant women is relaxing and relieving stress. Although it is
not an exercise, it is a way of taking control of the body once
again to encourage positive-ness and to increase health. The
right breathing techniques can provide many benefits. Take the
time to practice the most basic of techniques that yoga teaches
in breathing.
Standing Yoga poses: In your first trimester, the best exercises
to do are the standing yoga poses. These are basic and taught in
most yoga sessions. This will help strengthen your legs and
muscles and help with circulation while reducing leg cramps too.
Asanas: In the next couple of months, you can do what feels
right to you. But, never push too hard. You may want to reduce
the time that you spend practicing the Asanas as you do not want
to overwork or tire your body.
Moderate twisting: You can do supine poses, backbends as well as
some twisting as long as you are comfortable. Just ensure that
you are doing these in moderation.
Word Of Caution
It is important to note that many yoga practitioners warn
against practicing yoga from the tenth through the fourteenth
week of pregnancy since these are crucial times in development.
Also, it is important to never overstretch the abdomen during
any time of the pregnancy. When twisting, do so with your
shoulders and the upper back only. As for inversion poses, only
do them through the seventh month is you are completely
comfortable doing them. Never push too hard and yoga will be
very enjoyable during pregnancy.
