Prenatal Shoulder Stand

Shoulder stands have always been a key part of my practice. With benefits like balancing hormones, aiding proper circulation, increasing energy, strengthening the upper body and increasing flexibility how could I not love the way it makes me feel. With a growing belly I needed to figure out how to make this asana accessible as my pregnancy progressed. I made a quick little video of how to get in and out of this pose safely with a big belly.




If you are pregnant and have never practiced Shoulder stands before it is best to seek guidance and advice from an experienced teacher. This would not be something I would teach in a regular prenatal class aimed at beginners.
