Week 25

Baby Yoga
I know it's a little early to start thinking about the toddler years but I figure it cant hurt to arm myself with a few tools to cope with bed time......Zzz
During my recent BabyMoon to Naples, FL I visited one of my favorite local yoga studio's Bala Vinyasa.  While on vacation I signed up for a 1 day prenatal yoga workshop.  During the workshop we talked alot about breath and ways to relieve hip and lower back pain. What stuck with me most was a book the instructor passes around before class,  called "Itsy Bitsy Yoga" by Helen Garabedian.  What could be more fun then seeing your little one in "happy baby" or giggling in "cat & cow"?

"Yoga before bedtime for your toddler gives them a tool to self-soothe. It's a way of letting their bodies slow down at a natural Pace" Laurie Jordan, "The ABC of zzz" Yoga Journal September 2011

Check out this fun and educational book for your little one.
