How does pregnancy change the practice of Kundalini Yoga. I know that root

lock is not good. HOw about stretch pose? Breath of fire? No inverted

poses! Any thing else specific.

Thanks, Sharon

Dear Sharon,

Stretch pose and other abdominal exercises (leg lifts, especially double leg

lifts) are also best avoided. So is breath of fire after the 3rd month, as

fas as I know. Long deep breathing is on the contrary an art that you should

definitely master since it will be of much help during pregnancy and

delivery as well. You should also avoid Sat Kriya during this period.

 

The list can go on, but my best recommendation is to get one or more books

and videos that deal specifically with KY for expectant mothers, and also

exercises after the baby is born - some even include "mom and baby"

exercises. Some of these are listed on our site www.kundaliniyoga.org, and a

few others are available from www.cherdikala.com ,and they are done by well

recognized teachers. With them you can continue your KY practice during

pregnancy as well as be sure you are doing safe exercises.

 

Many blessings,

Satsang Kaur
