Lovely Pregnancy Yoga and Birth Preparation class this morning welcoming new mums.

We explored the value of your breathing in pregnancy and birth, and how calming focused natural breathing can regulate your nervous system and provide good support during your baby's birth.

A range of Yoga postures supporting your body to accommodate the changes pregnancy brings, including hip stretches and balancing, flowing, gentle sequences to support tired achy backs, and a sciatic support practice.

Breathing to connect inwardly, calm waves of anxiety and connect with your baby.

Deep relaxation where you learn a range of techniques to help you easily move into a calm, relaxed inner state to rest and restore your energy.

Look out for Feb and March Pregnancy Yoga dates and Restorative Yoga Workshops.

We often talk about responsive feeding when establishing breastfeeding, building milk supply, and making sure your baby is getting enough milk.

But it is also possible when feeding your baby with a bottle, or mixed feeding - whether you're expressing or feeding infant formula.

You don't need a specific feeding schedule. Instead, it's good to look for feeding cues from your baby and to feed them when they're hungry.

Early signs of hunger include:

✨rooting
✨moving their eyes or head from side to side
✨wriggling
✨waving or sucking fists
✨making murmuring noises

You can find more information on responsive breastfeeding and infant feeding on the Breastfeeding Network's website under 'Feeding Information'.

www.breastfeedingnetwork.org.uk/breastfeeding-information/

If you want to talk about feeding cues or anything else infant feeding-related, we're here for you - 24/7 💜

Conscious Menstrual Cycle Awareness Workshop
With Clare Cooper

Sun 8th Feb 2-4.30pm
Nurture Her Studio
Whitehaven
£40

Understanding the energies of the Menstrual Cycle and how these shift through the month is one of THE most life-changing things we can learn as women.

Learning to recognise the changing hormonal, physical and emotional shifts and understanding how to work with these (rather than against them) can be transformational in how we experience our period, energy and emotions through the entire month.

This workshop provides an introduction to Conscious Menstrual Cycle Awareness, alongside yoga breathing, postures, relaxation and energy work to help nourish your body and connect with your Cycle.

The workshop includes resources for you to take away to support your learning.

Dear Birthing Mothers

Create a bubble around yourself and let go of everything going on in the outer world, all the busyness, chaos and day to day things

Let this all fall away and bring your focus inwards

Create a cosy calm bubble around yourself, a cocoon to hold yourself within

Where you can be in the darkness, letting your hormones flow and build

Feeling safe, warm, loved and cared for

Focus on the movement of your breathing

The flow and space of your in breath

Breathing deeply into what you are feeling

Breathing deeper than the intensity

Knowing this will peak and pass

And breathing out long, slow and softening

Letting go of the tension

Letting any tension move own through your body, legs, knees, feet and into the Earth

You can do this, breath by breath

Each and every breath, each and every wave bringing your beautiful baby closer

Keep the faith in your body and the power of your intuition and inner wisdom

You can do this, you ARE doing this and baby will be here soon

Here's to celebrating another wonderful year of our Pregnancy Yoga and Birth Preparation Classes.

It has been an absolute joy and honour to offer these classes weekly and hold the space for all of you along the weeks and months of your pregnancies and this special chapter of your mothering journeys.

The class has been a calming and welcoming space for you to share experiences, emotions, thoughts and feelings, make new friends, rest and restore your body, tune inwards, connect with your beautiful babies and have some time and space away from all the demands of the outside world to focus on yourselves and your journeys.

Wishing you all a peaceful and happy Christmas, and some beautiful memories with the babies.

Be kind to yourself, take off some of the ever-building pressure to do more, give more and be more, and allow some of your mothering energy to ease, nurture and restore yourselves too

Pregnancy Yoga Classes beginning again Sunday 11th January 2026
