Baby's Breath Prenatal Yoga

48 years ago today, January 3rd 1978, we immigrated to Canada. It was my very first time on an airplane. I took this picture as we approached the Calgary airport. When we landed it was -32C. I remember what it felt like when I took my first breath stepping outside the airport terminal; like the air froze and got ‘stuck” inside my throat. I had never, ever seen that much snow…
People were very nice but it all felt so different. My 12 year old sister was refused entry into the lounge as our family waited for a table at a restaurant. Our dog wasn’t allowed to come into the stores when we went shopping for winter attire. People took their shoes off when they entered a home. The cashier at Safeway asked “how are you today” and I contemplated if she really did want to know because I had never met her before. It apparently wasn’t customary to kiss on the cheek three times when greeting someone new (wish someone had told me 😜)
When our furniture finally arrived from across the country, our couch was frozen solid for days. I missed my friends and older brother back home and I remember going to buy a house plant for some company. International phone calls cost over $8/minute, at least that’s what my parents told me. They kept saying I could go back to the Netherlands to pursue my dream of becoming a midwife in just 6 short months, as soon as I would turn 18. But then they bought me a horse and I stayed. Still here. And life is good.

A moment of reflection as the year is close to winding down. Our little home studio has held so much this year; classes, workshops, growing bellies, tiny babies and countless unrolled mats. I am so grateful for each and every one of you. Thank you for trusting me, showing up and supporting what I love so SO much 🙏🏻🧡

So grateful to be part of such a passionate, experienced team at HelloBaby - every one of us is a registered nurse with many(!) years of hands-on experience 🧡

I just finished teaching a 5 week Birth Education session and it was SO much fun, I was sad to have it end! My next 5 week session will start on January 8th but no matter when you schedule your birth education session with , you’ll be in the best of hands! Weekend courses are also available, check out the schedule on their website 🧡

To all the lovely expectant couples I got to know over the last five weeks, wishing you a beautiful birth experience in which you feel strong, safe and supported as you transition into parenthood. I’ll be thinking of you, much love your way!

Connecting with your Breath, your baby AND your Community, this is what these classes are all about!
Add a little cute chaos at times, maybe a diaper change or two and a breast or bottle feed, but still leave a little more grounded and relaxed. Bringing new moms together is the main goal of the classes. Motherhood is really hard work and you are not alone 🧡

Sessions always sell out, grab your spot quickly!
UPDATE: sold out quickly, thank you so much for your enthusiasm!

What are you doing November 2nd? How about stopping in between 11am-2pm at the Lumira clinic on Macleod Trail? There you can meet with professionals who all share a common passion caring for new and expectant moms and who offer resources that can help support you during this transformative time of your life. There will be snacks, a chance to win prizes (including a 5-class pass for Pre and Postnatal Yoga!) and lots a great conversation 🧡 I hope to see you there!

Few things leave me more in awe than the sky - always changing, always beautiful. A powerful reminder that nothing is permanent and to be grateful in the present moment.
