The benefits of doing yoga in pregnancy

Being pregnant is one of the various stages of women, where the body is transformed inside, outside and on all sides.

There are changes on all levels: physical, mental, spiritual, hormonal, and emotional. Obviously, the change we notice the most is the physical one, although the hormonal and emotional ones are not far behind. It is difficult to be taught to cope with these changes in a calm and harmonious way, and many women go through uncomfortable pregnancies without knowing who to turn to or what to do.

Starting a prenatal yoga practice is the best decision you can make to enjoy and get the most out of your pregnancy. This practice is aimed at all pregnant women regardless of their height, weight, previous experience, or degree of flexibility.
