Yoga for Pregnancy

This book offers yoga as a way of developing self-reliance and calmness of mind during pregnancy. Practising yoga poses with quiet mindfulness develops a strong, supple body and the ability to breathe deeply and relax completely. Yoga for Pregnancy provides ninety-two Iyengar poses carefully chosen for their safety and effectiveness during and after pregnancy. Each pose is explained concisely, illustrated with a photograph, and clearly marked with a code that tells which postures are advised for each trimester. This is a supportive guide to safe, gentle stretches that can help pregnant women adjust to the physical and mental demands of labour, birth, and motherhood.
