At peak 250,000 brain cells are being produced every minute during the prenatal period

The importance of the womb environment for proper development of brain function, immune function, mental and behavioral health can be even more important than genetics.

Use the lowest dose necessary to provide the desired effect Sometimes that dose is NONE

Current levels of uncertainty about long- term impacts suggest we:

Develop research priorities Avoid unneeded interventions Interventions should be based on

what we already know about normal reproductive hormonal physiology and epigenetics

Increased activity in

left frontal and limbic

Increased theta and

alpha frequencies

Shifts brain from

sympathetic to parasympathetic activity

Increased concentration, improved

self-control and better emotional balance.

Increased positive mood, emotional

stability and resilience.

More mature coping strategies and

tolerance of common stressors.

These effects are passed to fetus with maternal practice

and don’t forget the long term generational effects through epigenetic programming!

 Helps build flexibility

and strength needed for birth

 Emphasis is on

breath and deliberate relaxation

 Can be modified

easily for high risk pregnancies “Yoga works not because poses are relaxing but because they are stressful . . . It‘s the practice of remaining calm during the stress that creates the neurobiological benefit”
