Garbh Sanskar in Rishikesh, India
Garbh Sanskar focuses on the emotional and mental wellbeing of pregnant women. Rooted in ancient tradition, it emphasizes positive thoughts, values, and impressions during pregnancy. The practice supports a calm and stress-free experience, which is believed to encourage smoother labor and a healthy baby. This training helps students understand how to support a woman through each stage of pregnancy with the right mindset and tools.
What Is Prenatal Yoga?
Prenatal yoga is designed to help strengthen and stabilize the body during pregnancy. The practice uses gentle stretches, modified postures, and mindful movement to support the joints and muscles without strain. Under the guidance of trained teachers, students learn how prenatal postures differ from general yoga asanas and how to teach them safely and effectively.
What Is Postnatal Yoga?
Postnatal yoga supports healing and recovery after birth through gentle movement, restorative asanas, specific breathing techniques, and calming meditation. It also helps manage the physical and emotional stress that can follow delivery, including postpartum depression. This course gives a complete understanding of the birthing process, newborn care, and holistic health management.
