🤰 Feeling overwhelmed or unsure during pregnancy? Here’s a calming practice you can try right now.
This gentle blend of breathwork and self-inquiry is designed to help you reconnect, soften stress, and feel more at home in your changing body.
🌬 1. Grounding Breath (2–3 minutes)
Sit comfortably or lie down supported.
Place one hand on your heart, one on your belly. Take a moment to really feel the connection under your hands, with yourself and your baby.
Inhale slowly through your nose for a count of 4, letting the belly rise and the breath travel slowly up to the chest.
Exhale gently through the nose for a count of 6 and allow the body to soften. Bring your awareness as you breathe to how the hands rise and fall rhythmically.
🧠 2. Coaching Prompt to Reclaim Your Inner Voice
Continue to breathe here and when you feel centred, gently ask yourself:
“What do I need to hear right now that would bring me peace?”
Listen without judgment. Trust what comes up—whether it’s a word, an image, or just a sensation.
With each inhale welcome in that acknowledgement, allow yourself to feel it, and with each exhale release and let go of any thoughts or feelings that no longer serve you and your baby. Let your body drop a little deeper into calm with each cycle.
🌱 Let this be your reminder: You hold deep wisdom. Your body knows how to take this journey. And you are not alone.
✨ As you close down this practice, take a pause and come back to yourself. You’re doing beautifully. 💛
If this felt helpful, there’s more wholistic guidance available.
