Ep 96: Give Back To Your Body - Prenatal + Postpartum Yoga with Julie Hawkins

Dr. Shannon chats with Julie Hawkins, a 500HR RYT prenatal and postpartum yoga instructor in the metro-Atlanta area.  Yoga is a beautiful way to incorporate movement into your pregnancy and postpartum journey. It can also bring about self- awareness, help transition into motherhood, and "give back to your body” in a beautiful, effective, and meaningful way.

We cover a lot in this episode:

• Julie’s beginnings in yoga while hiking the AT
• Why she began teaching and how her yoga practice evolved during her own pregnancies and births
• The specifics of prenatal and postpartum certification
• How yoga can impact self-care, returning to breath, and offer physical, communal, and mental support
• The benefits of prenatal and postpartum yoga
• Yoga pose modifications during pregnancy and postpartum
