Let's explore the key differences and why prenatal yoga might be the best choice for you.

What have you learned since taking classes with PYLV?

I've learned that self care is more valuable than most people realize, and that growing a human inside of me and preparing for birth is essentially like training for a marathon. Prioritizing routine, and having PYLV push me just a little bit past my comfort level each time, has made me become the strongest I've ever been. I also attribute my relatively "boring" pregnancy to all the lessons I have learned through the PYLV community.

When did you start taking classes with PYLV?

I started taking PYLV 2 weeks after I had Sora. I was looking up classes that the different hospitals offered and saw that Baby and Me Yoga was one of them! I have practiced yoga for many years and loved all the benefits it provides me. I thought it was a great idea to share that love of yoga with my baby. After attending the first class of Baby and Me Yoga, I shared how the experience went with my husband who also enjoys yoga. Kyle has regularly attended classes with Sora and me after that.

What is your favorite yoga pose?

I have so many favorite yoga poses but if I am to pick one…shavasana. The reason I choose shavasana is because thru my postnatal healing I have struggled with quieting my mind and letting go. Although it is not a physically challenging pose for me, it is mentally challenging and that is why I love it. I have learned to release and let go and relax my mind thru shavasana.

Embracing the Doula Journey: Chloe's Path to Empowering Birth Experiences

I think every birthing person should know that they deserve to feel supported. Pregnancy, birth, and parenthood are transformational and challenging, and the decision to go through those things is brave and sacred. The world we live in doesn’t always treat birthing people with respect, so it’s important to prepare for that and remember what we deserve as we navigate birth.

Doulas 101: Types, Benefits, and Why You Need One

A doula is like a personal trainer for your parenting journey. Just like you can go to the gym and work out on your own, you can navigate birth/parenthood without a doula. However, if you have specific goals, want expert guidance, or need someone to support you through challenges, a doula becomes an invaluable partner.

The Power of Intention Setting: Enhancing Your Yoga Practice and Birth Experience

An intention is a purposeful and deliberate statement that reflects your deepest desires, values, and aspirations. It’s not about setting a goal or making a wish; rather, it's about aligning your thoughts and actions with the essence of what you want to cultivate in your life. Whether you're stepping onto your yoga mat or preparing for the transformative journey of birth, setting an intention creates a mental and emotional roadmap to guide you.
