Nona Prenatal Yoga & Support
In the Nona Prenatal Yoga and Support class, we weave together mindfulness, childbirth education, and yoga for a holistic approach to pregnancy, childbirth, and early parenting.
Because we cannot think our way through labor, prenatal yoga is a perfect way to drop beneath the thinking mind and into the body/mind to prepare for birth.
In the Nona Prenatal Yoga & Support course, parents will learn self-help techniques that relieve many of the physical discomforts associated with pregnancy and the postpartum period.
Learn healthy ways to reduce stress and anxiety before and during labor.
Practice effective mindfulness based pain coping skills.
Develop confidence for birth.
Bond with your pre-born baby.
Address the emotional concerns of pregnancy, birth, and parenthood.
Honor the difficulties and celebrate the joys of pregnancy.
