Practicing yoga poses with quiet mindfulness develops a strong, supple body and the ability to breathe deeply and relax completely.

Each pose is explained concisely, illustrated with a photograph, and clearly marked with a code that tells which postures are advised for each trimester. This is a supportive guide to safe, gentle stretches that can help pregnancy women adjust to the physical and mental demands of labor birth, and motherhood.
