Your emotions shape your physical experience during pregnancy. 💫

When stress builds up, your body holds tension. This can lead to:
• Back pain
• Headaches
• Poor sleep
• Digestive issues

But here's the beautiful part - when you feel supported and calm, your body responds with:
• Better circulation
• Reduced swelling
• Improved mobility
• Deeper relaxation

Your mental state isn't separate from your physical well-being. They work together.

What's one thing that helps you feel more grounded during pregnancy? 💭

When you're running on empty but sleep feels impossible...

These 3 gentle stretches helped me through those late-night newborn days:

1. Legs up the wall - 5 minutes
2. Child's pose - 3 deep breaths
3. Seated forward fold - hold for comfort

Your body carries so much during the day. Give it these few moments of quiet care before bed.

Your emotions and body are deeply connected during pregnancy.

Those anxious thoughts? They can show up as tension in your shoulders.
That overwhelm? It might be causing your lower back pain.

When we address both together, that's when true healing happens. ✨

Many mamas tell me they didn't realize how much stress they were carrying until they finally let it go on my table.

Your body deserves that relief. Your mind does too. 💗
