Listen to your body
The most important aspect of practising yoga during pregnancy is to try and listen to your body. Experiment and find what feels comfortable for you, keeping in mind that it may vary during different stages of pregnancy.
Things to consider:
- Listen to your body, only do what feels good and adapt the exercises
- If you're tired, prioritise taking it easy and practice activities that provide long-term energy
- If you have energy, use it
- Make room for the growing baby in the uterus
