I am convinced that yoga is a recommended exercise at all stages of life. But nevertheless, during pregnancy, it is especially healthy. I have tested the benefits of yoga, before, during and after pregnancy and its effects are noticed at all stages. I have absolutely become an enthusiast of this beneficial practice.
Before staying, it is ideal to strengthen the muscles and prepare the body for the great changes it will have during the next nine months. If we are in good physical condition before becoming pregnant, the recovery of the muscles after childbirth will be much faster.
During pregnancy, it is clear that we will have to lower the intensity of the practice, do not force the movements or demand them to the fullest. There are some asanas (postures) that we can not do for obvious reasons: a hype that does not leave us too much range of movements. The exercise It helps prepare our body for childbirth, which will have more flexibility. Breathing control, so important in yoga, will also help us relax at that time.
Some of the benefits that yoga gives you are the stimulation of the glands that control the production of hormones, greater blood flow and better circulation. Also, it helps to mitigate the problems of insomnia and sleep, massage the internal organs, not counting the feeling of well-being and the positive attitude towards the life that it promotes.
An important caveat: if you have been practicing yoga for a while before becoming pregnant, you can continue with a light routine in the first trimester. On the other hand, if you had not done it before, you should start from the second quarter. It's never wrong to tell your doctor and ask for his approval.
Dare to try it, you will surely join the fan club.
