February 1st, 8th, 15th at 10am

Our normal, everyday lives are filled with stressors: from frightening news cycles to being stuck in  traffic. Increased levels of stress can decrease fertility, as 2010 and 2011 studies have shown. While we cannot always prevent stressful situations, we can learn how to cope with them in a healthier  manner.

Yoga is as effective or more effective than exercise at regulating the sympathetic nervous system.  Also, since yoga seeks to foster a state of mind/body/harmony, it can empower practitioners with  techniques for coping with stress. 

Yoga for Conception consists of a slow flow, with emphasis on restoritive postures.

The goals of Yoga for Conception classes are reducing stress by deepening and controlling the breath, stretching and opening the pelvis, lower back, hips, groins, chest and shoulders.

Yoga is a great way to boost and balance the immune system. You can increase the blood circulation and ensure that it reaches the reproductive organs and it helps slow you down and find ways to live more fully and in greater comfort.

The following topics will be covered in this workshop:

Week 1: Reducing stress by deepening and controlling the breath with gentle movement

Week 2: Yoga postures to support the endocrine system and optimize blood flow to the pelvic region

Week 3: Reconnection with your body and reproductive system
