Taken from  Whether you’re pregnant or trying to conceive, these five simple tips will help establish a healthy foundation for you and your baby.
1. Supplement Your Diet
Taking a high-quality prenatal supplement andpurified fish oil are essential to ensuring you and the growing life inside of you are getting what you need. Think of supplements as insurance for your health, and don’t skimp on quality or price (i.e. don’t purchase your vitamins at a store that also sells tires). |

Backache in Pregnancy....
 Backache is one of the top complaints with all my Pregnancy Yoga and Pilates students. The two most important places to protect your back is at work and watching how you sleep. Keeping active, using your ball and coming to class will help keep your back strong, but you MUST mind your back in work.
Please read below top tips from one of my FANTASTIC students who has worked in facilities management.
Tips for Office Workers - You should be given a Pregnancy Risk Assessment by whoever is in charge of Health & Safety in your company.

 As those of you who are taking my pregnancy classes know, I am a huge fan of using birthing balls during your pregnancy, labour and birth. I strongly advice all students to get a ball as soon as they know that they are pregnant and spend as much time on it as possible. Use your ball at home, relaxing, watching TV, at your desk, at your kitchen table and use that ball to ease any back pressure. Don't forget to use your ball for your daily exercises too!

Marilyn Monroe: Yoga Superstar By MindBodyGreen
Not only did Marilyn Monroe crank out inspirational wisdom, but she also got her yoga on. Seems like the spirit of Marilyn is in the air as we've seen lots of Marilyn yoga photos floating around the internet the past few days.
Did you know that Marilyn learned yoga from Indra Devi, who many consider to be the "The First Lady of Yoga"?
At any rate, Marilyn Monroe was a yogi!

For all my diligent Pilates and Yogalates students, here is a link to a great You Tube video 7 minute abs. Introduced to me by my sister Kate this weekend, I was surprised how challenging and comprehensive it was. Tony (the trainer) recommends doing it 3-4 times per week. He gives great instruction and motivation throughout the 7 minute routine. Roll out your mat and give it a try NOW! Let me know what you think…. If this wets your appetite, join me for Yogalates or Pilates classes in Dublin Holistic Centre, Dublin 2. |

"Devotees develop hard-core abs, thanks to Pilates, in addition to the supreme posture and balance benefits of yoga. Learn the basics and explore the benefits with this three-move ab routine for newbies."
We have been running Yogalates classes for the past three years and numbers of students are increasing with each new term. |
