Yoga after 8 months postpartum...
-
A friend of mine used to practice yoga regularly but stopped when she found out she was pregnant. Now, she's having a really hard time getting back into it. She thought she would be back in the swing of things by now, but she feels very unfocused, exhausted, and completely unmotivated.
Does anyone have tips or advice for her? She feels like she's lost touch with her body and misses that connection deeply. She's also feeling strange and weak in her new postpartum body.

Namaste Neha,
It’s very natural for a body to change after pregnancy, body has been preparing for the baby for all 9months, it has changed through this process so that it can support the whole birthing process
Nevertheless, she can start with postnatal classes with the teacher who has an expertise with prenatal postnatal yoga,
But firstly, she must gracefully accept the body and truly appreciate it , she can start with a guided meditations to connect with her body , slowly move to basic asanas which targets pelvic floor muscles in priority
Keeping an easy goal n being consistent would really help. One step at a time
Hope this helped:)
