Yoga tips for new moms from - Posted •
Yoga is an exceptional, life-long movement and consciousness practice. I'm a at heart and in my own workouts, it forms the bedrock for everything else I do.⁠⁠
B U T - and this is a big but, folks - I thrive in because I have formed a strength-based practice.⁠⁠
A mom's body needs are very specific because after you give (even if it was years ago), you have that odd tight/unstable sensation pretty much everywhere.
You yearn to open up the tightness, but aren't sure what is safe or how to your weakened .
The first thing to understand is that you don't want without . That just creates instability and weak joints which often leads to more pain and .⁠
Here are the things you need to consider when getting into yoga post-baby:

1️⃣ Breath relaxes you, but it is also the gateway to strength. This is different than 'sucking in' or 'uddyiana bandha'...you want to actually feel your transverse wrap and engage when you exhale instead of just hollowing out. Think about this when lunging, in down-dog, or working into arm balances.

2️⃣ Your posture is internal and is accessed through your pelvic floor. Keep your feet in parallel tracks to your knees and front hip bones when setting up mountain pose or utkatsana (chair pose). It will give you more while strengthening thighs + protecting your knees and low back.

3️⃣ The 'vinyasa' needs to be built from the ground up. As good as a flowing and up-dog feel, if you're not moving with a connected mid-line, integrated arm strength and rib stability, you are just stretching and compressing your waist and low back. This can exacerbate an already fragile pelvic girdle and diastasis recti.

*In Phase 2, I teach you how to work a and approach back-bending from the inside out. I also show you how to modify so that you are building progressive strength while protecting your body's healing process.⁠
So, don't let fear stop you from getting on your mat. Educate yourself, listen to your body.

While we've struggled this week to find a way to authentically voice our support as a business, it has also allowed us to take a deeper look at our own organization and the way we have prioritized and understood inclusion and diversity.
As a small, female founded company, we have always prided ourselves on the diversity of our client roster. We have been fortunate enough to work with members of so many different minority communities - Asian, African, Indian, Female, & LGBTQ - and often highlighted their histories through the storytelling of our marketing.
We also know that is not enough. We acknowledge that while we were honored to be entrusted with their stories, we did not personally or internally understand the adversity they all faced as a hurdle to success for their business.
This stops now, and is our own job to educate ourselves, to understand how racism and bigotry affects our colleagues of color. With our pledge to do the work internally, we also invite you to raise your own awareness. Read, listen to podcasts, watch TED talks, follow and engage with leaders of color on LinkedIn and other social platforms. If you're looking for ideas, we suggest starting here:

Bluitt’s first cinematic project, ‘She Did That.,’ explores the passionate pursuits of Black women and their entrepreneurship journeys.
