Why yoga:

• to feel better today

• to prepare your body for labor, and help your baby get into the most optimal position for birth

• to practice poses that you can also use during labor

• so they get into your system

How to practice:

• You will need a yoga mat, blanket, meditation pillow (or any pillow), one yoga block (or a box filled with something, low stool, or a coffee table), and a bolster (a long pillow, breastfeeding pillow or a pregnancy sleeping pillow)

• Ideally you can stream it on a bigger screen next to you

• If the sound of your laptop / phone is low, you may like to use Bluetooth earbuds

• The whole sequence takes around 60 minutes, incl. breathing and guided relaxation at the end. You can always decide to shorten it, or only do breathing & relaxation on days that you simply need it more
