My son is 8 years old today!!! Looking back at this pregnancy photoshoot fills me with so much gratitude. I remember wanting to share how powerful and important yoga was during that season — not for staying “fit,” but for staying connected.
When I first became pregnant, I thought I would miss my power yoga practice. Instead, pregnancy became its own practice — softer, deeper, more intuitive. Prenatal yoga grounded my busy mind, supported my changing body, and helped me bond with my baby in the most beautiful way.
✨ Trimester reminders:
• 1st: Rest, modify, no intense core/inversions. Listen deeply.
• 2nd: Energy returns — move mindfully, avoid lying flat on your back.
• 3rd: Focus on breathwork, pelvic floor strength, meditation, fascia release, and supported flows.
Here’s the simple standing flow I loved (20–45 mins, let breath guide you):
🌿 Foot myofascial release (2 mins each foot with ball)
🌿 Wide-stance Surya A (cat/cow → downdog → step forward)
🌿 Modified Surya B (chair → low lunge → high crescent → repeat other side)
🌿 Tree pose (1 min each side)
🌿 Warrior 2 → Triangle → Exalted Warrior → Side Angle flow (both sides)
🌿 Goddess pose x5
🌿 Optional final modified Surya A
🌿 Finish with foot release + side-lying savasana
Pregnancy is an invitation to trust your intuition and honor the daily changes. Move gently. Breathe deeply. Stay connected.
Forever grateful for this practice and the journey into motherhood 🤍 Let me know if you're pregnant below or tag someone who could use it!
Thanks for following my journey here. Im so grateful to each and every one of you.
