Every child brought into this world represents a Bright Beginning. A bundle full of innocence and possibility. Those first few weeks of the postnatal period can be a rollercoaster ride of ecstatic highs of joy followed by heavy fogs of fatigue and overwhelm.
Babies do not develop an understanding of themselves as a separate being until around 6 months old (which explains why your personal space seems to have disappeared overnight). For this reason, practising Postnatal Yoga will benefit your baby just as much as it will you. Hence why we call it Mums and Bubs Yoga.
Bright Beginnings approaches postnatal yoga from a place of compassion. Rather than rushing to rediscover your pre-baby body, or regain your pre-pregnancy exercise regime, there is a focus on practicality and accessibility. Mothers are supported to nurture themselves and their babies as they adjust to their new roles.
The format of each Mums and Bubs Yoga Class is adapted on the day to suit the temperament and needs of the babies (and the parents).
Gift Vouchers Available
Improved health and wellbeing could be the greatest gift you can give. Consider gifting some postnatal yoga classes to the new mother (or mother-to-be) in your life, or if you are pregnant, perhaps put a hint out for your baby shower or blessing.
Postnatal Yoga may support new parents by:
Gently and gradually restoring the tone and strength of the abdominal and pelvic muscles that are stretched during pregnancy
Fostering the mother-child bond
Decreasing stress and anxiety
Providing restorative and rejuvenating practices to address fatigue
Improving stamina to manage the rigours of motherhood
Supporting breast and bottle feeding
Providing an opportunity to network with other mothers
Providing a safe place to discuss and process your transition to motherhood
Supporting the transition and adjustment to motherhood
