Mama and Baby Yoga
Mama and baby yoga is taking off!
While being a yoga teacher myself. I couldn’t wait to introduce yoga to my little baby. However, before 3 months she didn’t enjoy it at all. As she didn’t want me to put her down. But, that all changed at 3 months. As now she loves to be active too! Yay!
So, all yoga loving mama’s. Keep on introducing yoga. Without any force, of course! And maybe you soon both love it!
Tummy time & having fun!
Tummy time is an excellent way of practicing yoga together.
We love to get on the Yoga mat together. When she is laying on her tummy I lay down in Cobra pose before her. And we both practice. While smiling, laughing and sending each other love.
Honestly, Mama and Baby Yoga is more about having joy together. And connecting on a deep level. Instead of a perfect yoga practise for you. But still: we LOVE doing yoga together.
Preferably outdoors. So roll your mat out mama! And give it a try.
Eye gazing with your baby
Eye gazing with your baby is so magical! As this brings a profound soul to soul connection. I notice that I just introduce all of my favourite practices to Saoirse. And she loves it! Like eye-gazing. When she is on her changing table. I take her hands so she can sit up. And then we look each other in the eye.
Eye gazing is such a special experience! Because with eye-gazing you look deep into the soul of your little one. Therefore, I don’t see a little baby. But a fierce and beautiful lioness soul that is beyond the eyes. Also, my little one loves it. She has this shining look in her eyes. And starts smiling and laughing.
Such a beautiful way of connecting with your baby.
Making Music together
Making music together brings so much joy! At 3 months old baby engages more and more with the world around. Therefore this is the perfect moment to make music together. If you didn’t start already…
Share your passion with your baby
Choice any kind of instrument you love. And share your passion with your baby. With Saoirse, we love to play the Koshi wind-chimes. Which are more meditative. This we started from newborn. And brings her calmness.
This month we introduced Saoirse into Shamanic Instruments. Which she loves! She smiles right away when we start playing the drum or the raddle. I feel Shamanic Instruments connect her to her roots.
Singing to your baby
Babies love your voice. So sing as often as you can!
We love to sing mantras to Saoirse. When she is fussy Mul Mantra is the only one that calms her down the second she hears it. So special!
Singing to your baby is also a perfect way to develop their language skills.
Introducing holistic daily rituals
Besides learning baby to daily brush your teeth. And do the dishes after cooking. I love to introduce our baby to holistic daily rituals. Moments of connecting within. And connecting with nature.
This month we started with a daily morning ritual. So we take a card (read more about soon). And place it on our altar. We also do daily nature moments, music and dancing, moments of connection. And so on.
Holistic Bedtime ritual
Also with bedtime we have a special ritual together. Where we do baby massage, Reiki and meditation. This helps her to let go of the excitement of the day. And doze into a deep sleep.
Oracle/tarot cards
Oracle and tarot cards are my personal way of connecting within. Therefore, I love to share this with my baby.
Setting intention
Since Saoirse is getting more and more attention to the world around her. We started introducing her to Oracle cards. Which is part of our morning routine. Setting the intention of the day.
And she loves them! As all cards have beautiful drawings that get her attention. Besides the beauty of the card. I also love to read the meaning to her.
Planting seeds of a mindful lifestyle
Although the words might seem too difficult. I feel you can never start too early with planting seeds of a mindful lifestyle. This is our moment of magic together.
