In this episode of the Nourishing Birth and Beyond podcast, host I talk with Courtney, a pregnant yoga client, about the importance of communication and support in preparing for parenthood.

In this episode of the Nourishing Birth and Beyond podcast, I share valuable insights for managing back pain during pregnancy. Ie emphasise the importance of maintaining a neutral posture to alleviate strain on the spine and encourage keeping the glute muscles active through exercises like squats. I also recommends Epsom salt baths for muscle relaxation and highlight the benefits of pregnancy yoga for overall well-being. For persistent pain, I suggests consulting specialists such as osteopaths or physiotherapists. Additionally, I invite listeners to a live workshop offering practical tools for busy moments.
