This week I’m joined by Claire Holloway, homebirth mother, yoga educator, and fierce advocate for reclaiming autonomy in pregnancy, birth and matrescence. Claire shares her own HBAC story and how her experience with both an emergency C-section and a homebirth transformed her relationship with her body—and with yoga.
We dive deep into the true essence of yoga for birth, stripping away the fluff of 'prenatal stretch classes' and exploring how ancient philosophy offers a powerful framework for navigating birth on your terms.
In this episode, we explore:
⭐ How yoga for homebirth is radically different from mainstream birth prep
⭐ The yogic principles that can guide your pregnancy and birth journey
⭐ Why breathwork is about awareness, not perfection
⭐ Pain management strategies rooted in presence, not performance
⭐ Why physical postures are the least important part of prenatal yoga
Whether you're pregnant, planning a homebirth, or supporting women through birth, this conversation is an invitation to go deeper—beyond the mat, beyond technique, and into the heart of what it means to birth in full awareness and autonomy.
🎧 Tune in now for a grounded, wise and soulful chat that will shift how you see yoga and birth forever.
🎧 Enjoy this episode!
