    Michelle O’Brien: Yoga Saved Me Talk Tuesday

    Michelle introduces yoga to women in the prenatal and postnatal phases of their lives.

    On this Yoga Saved Me – Talk Tuesday episode, Michelle O’Brien shares how yoga supports women through pregnancy, birth recovery, and the first demanding months of motherhood. Her approach centers nervous system care, functional movement, and compassionate pacing—so women can release tension, build strength safely, and feel grounded during a significant life transition.

    Watch and listen to the whole conversation:

    Why prenatal & postnatal yoga matters.

    • Nervous system regulation: Breath-led practices reduce stress and help you sleep better.
    • Functional strength: Gentle sequences support the core, hips, and back for pregnancy/postpartum demands.
    • Pelvic floor awareness: Cueing that balances engagement and release to aid recovery.
    • Pain reduction: Simple mobility work eases neck, shoulder, and lower-back tension from feeding and carrying.
    • Emotional steadiness: Mindful pauses and affirmations help foster resilience during times of change.

    Michelle’s guidance echoes the Rooted for Care philosophy: small, repeatable practices that support calm, capacity, and recovery—mainly when stress builds up.

    Practical tips from the episode.

    • Start with breath: Inhale 4, exhale 6 for two minutes to downshift before movement.
    • Move in minutes: Try a 5–10 minute sequence: cat-cow, hip circles, supported squat, side-lying leg lifts.
    • Post-feed reset: Shoulder openers at a wall or doorframe to counter rounding.
    • Pelvic floor check-in: Gentle contract–release with synchronized breath (no max effort).
    • Affirmation: “My breath steadies my body. My pace is enough.”

    Note: Always follow your provider’s guidance—especially postpartum and after birth or surgical recovery. Adapt movements to comfort, use props, and prioritize rest.
