Yoga and Pregnancy

Description

Yoga and Pregnancy places the unique experience of pregnancy within the total experience of human life and the vast reality of creation. Nine months may seem brief in a woman’s life, short but forever life changing.

Living a yoga lifestyle and imbibing yoga samskaras through the various branches of yoga as developed by the Satyananda Yoga- Bihar Yoga tradition enhances the quality of mother and child, the family society, and ultimately the quality of humankind.

This is not a self-help book for expectant mothers, nor a medical guide. The aim is to suggest attitudes, disciplines and practices of yoga so that the new life can begin in the most beneficial manner.

The child’s education begins in the mother’s womb. Whatever habits of thought, action and feeling are formed in a child’s early days last throughout life.

-Swami Satyananda Saraswati
