This photo just popped up in my memories. đź’ś
At the time (2015), I thought it was adorable that my little guy fell asleep right at the end of our mom & baby yoga class.
But now, 10 years and a whole lot of learning later… I see something different.
His body doesn’t look relaxed at all.
➡️ His face is scrunched — look at those eyebrows and cheeks
➡️ Legs pulled in and flexed
➡️ Left hand fi**ed
➡️ Neck tilted to one side
➡️ Shoulder higher on the left
➡️ Body rotated
➡️ Mouth open
Even though he’s fast asleep… his body is telling a story.
A story of tension, discomfort, and a nervous system working overtime.
He had reflux.
He was fussy.
He hated tummy time.
He was super sensitive.
And sleep? Only in short chunks (unless he was on me).
I didn’t know it back then… but this was body tension.
And now, this is exactly what I help families understand and support through my work.
Because when we learn to see these subtle signs — we can begin to help our babies release, relax, and flow. 💜
