DVD: Yoga for Pregnancy & Birth - Katie Brown

Wellbeing for mums-to-be

Take time out for you and your baby with this easy-to-follow and informative program. It is written by and features pre-natal yoga teacher Katie Brown, who was seven months pregnant with her second child when this DVD was filmed. Katie guides you through a relaxation, a baby bonding practice and two routines which are suitable for every stage of pregnancy.

Yoga is one of the best and safest forms of exercise for new mums. It doesn't matter if you've never done Yoga before - you'll still feel the benefits. Yoga helps to release stress and symptoms associated with pregnancy. It also encourages your body to prepare for labour. It can deepen the bond with your unborn baby and help your body recover after childbirth.

Katie says: "When I fell pregnant with my second child, I wanted to attend classes, but I found it hard to find ones which were suitable. I also discovered there weren't many videos and DVDs out there, so I decided to make my own! I wanted to do something a bit different, so I've also incorporated a section on how you can use Yoga and massage for childbirth."
