prenatal breathwork session

Come gather for a guided prenatal breathwork session to experience deep relaxation, tap into your altered states of consciousness, and breathe in sisterhood with a group of other moms-to-be, because nothing connects us like breath and motherhood.

Notice: While these breathwork journeys are designed specifically for pregnancy, it is wise to consult with your prenatal care provider to ensure breathwork is appropriate for you. Some conditions require extra precautions including placental concerns, uncontrolled high blood pressure, a history of seizures or epilepsy in mom or baby, and severe respiratory or cardiovascular conditions. If you have any questions or concerns, please consult with your prenatal care provider and contact me so we can discuss your situation prior to the session.

yoga & more for a functional pelvic floor

90-Minute Workshop
Redmond, WA & Virtual
June 4th, 2023, 12-1:30 pm PDT

What does it mean to have a "functional" pelvic floor?

Today we know that Kegels are not the best way to support a healthy pelvic floor in pregnancy. The real key to a healthy pelvic floor is a functional system that can both relax and maintain tone when needed.

It's time to leave boring Kegels in the past and learn simple and fun practices that can help you achieve the dynamic response of relax and tone to improve the holistic function of your pelvic floor.

Improving function in your pelvic floor before birth may help:

Reduce postpartum pelvic floor dysfunction
Reduce the risk of tearing in birth
Shorten the duration of labor
Improve your confidence in your connection with your body

How can Prenatal Yoga & Breathwork help a functional pelvic floor?

Through Yoga, you can connect to your physical body through movement and breath, and get curious about how your body works and how you can optimize your movement to support pelvic floor function.

Breath is one of the best methods to engage your nervous system to relax and calm your mind and body and is also important for a healthy core and pelvic floor as the primary system to manage the intra-abdominal pressure of a growing baby.

By the end of this workshop, you will have tools to assess your pelvic alignment, movement to support healthy pelvic floor balance, and a deeper connection to your breath to support a functional and responsive pelvic floor for pregnancy and birth.
