After enjoying the benefits of antenatal yoga, many women like to join a postnatal class. The postnatal period is a time of massive change for many new mothers, and a yoga class can provide a safe and supportive sanctuary. Yoga can help mothers recover strength and vitality, relieve back-ache, joint pains and re-tone the muscles, thus regaining shape and fitness safely. It can improve and recover the pelvic floor muscles and abdominal region. Simple breathing exercises can bring a feeling of calm through times of anxiety, hormonal imbalance and lack of sleep. The first few months of motherhood can be exhausting as the mother and baby settle into a routine that works for them both. Postnatal yoga classes emphasizes the need for relaxation for physical and emotional recovery after birth. The practices are fun (some integrate nursery rhymes with movements) and help assist in the different stages of baby’s development (sitting, rolling, crawling, walking). Mothers report that their babies sleep well after the baby yoga sessions, and the common problems like integrating the yoga into daily routines eases constipation and colic
