The must read new book for mums and mums to be everywhere! Renowned yoga teacher Katie Spiers has always been a trail blazer and she brings a lifetime of creativity and insights to her new book ‘The Yoga of Birth’ which details how the ancient practices of yoga can help women during and after child birth.
This book shows that yoga is as relevant and useful on the mat at a studio as it is during pregnancy and the early years of a child’s life.
As any parent knows having a child is an anxious time but nervous mums can find guidance in this book which deals with everything from staying healthy during pregnancy to information on food for infants.
Katie Spiers tackles subjects in the book that many others are afraid of and gives frank and honest advice on immunisation and diet.
Katie is uniquely placed to give advice and break new ground in applying yoga to child birth given her own experience raising two boys Christos and Ziggy while juggling a business and publishing career.
Stay tuned for news of the Book Launch in Sydney later this month.
