First Time Mum's Chat

Why Moving Your Body Is So Important For Moms


Listen Later

Many women who have recently given birth, ask me about topics such as strengthening their bodies. I've interviewed a number of guests on the podcast who have shared their expertise in this area.


This week's guest Christina Whelan has a mission to shift the dialogue around movement, so that more women will get moving with the purpose of finding the freedom that a healthy body and mind will give them.


Christina teaches body awareness using tools including Pilates, the Franklin Method and Eldoa myofascial stretching. Through her training, she also helps women who are pregnant and/or postpartum to regain core control and to aid recovery.


Christina shares many pearls of wisdom in this episode including:-


  • The importance of encouraging movement in your little one early on so they get the vibe towards beginning an active life, instead of a sedentary one.
  • Tips to help moms begin their recovery after they've given birth and after six weeks has elapsed.
  • Ways to improve your breathing and why it is so important to do this correctly.
  • How Eldoa myofascial stretching helps strengthen your spine.


AND much more.


So go ahead, my dear mum. Click to listen and get started.
