Breathing for Pregnancy

How to find calm through the four trimesters

Summary

Easy ways to feel safe and calm during pregnancy.

The journey to becoming a parent can be a landscape of joy and apprehension, of doubt and anxiety, of love and overwhelm. In this gentle and supportive guide, psychotherapist and breathwork teacher Carolyn Cowan uncovers the amazing hidden power of the breath.

Breathing for Pregnancy will teach you how to:

- Ease symptoms of worry and anxiety during pregnancy and labour
- Use breathing to manage your stress response and recover from symptoms such as morning sickness
- Stretch and move through yoga poses during pregnancy and after birth
- Create your own breathwork practice

Carolyn Cowan's unique and empathetic practice will allow you to unlock a new understanding of yourself and feel relaxed and comfortable during pregnancy.
