## About Postpartum Yoga: Gentle Recovery & Reconnection

Forget the pressure to 'bounce back.' In my postpartum sessions, we prioritize nervous system regulation over intensity, which means you can practice even on days when you are exhausted. We use Iyengar props like belts, bolsters, and chairs to support your skeletal structure, allowing you to release deep-seated tension and address issues like diastasis recti or pelvic floor weakness without overstraining muscles that are still healing.

After the intensity of pregnancy and childbirth, your body does not need more stress. It needs support. Many new mothers feel a pull to jump back into their old routines, but my classes focus on a more intuitive, sustainable approach. 

### Why I Focus on Iyengar Yoga Postpartum
The Iyengar method is uniquely suited for postpartum recovery because of its reliance on props. When you are healing, your core and pelvic floor muscles need intelligent, specific engagement, not generic crunching. We use chairs, wall ropes, and bolsters to create a 'supportive container' for your body. This allows you to hold postures longer and breathe deeply, helping your nervous system shift from a state of 'fight or flight' (so common with a newborn) to one of rest and repair. 

### What We Address
- **Diastasis Recti & Core Strength:** We work on engaging the transverse abdominals and pelvic floor in a way that aligns with your healing stage, rather than aggravating abdominal separation. 
- **Postnatal Depletion:** If you are dealing with chronic fatigue, we prioritize restorative asanas that help replenish your energy rather than depleting it further. 
- **Structural Alignment:** From the hunched posture of breastfeeding to back pain from carrying a baby, we use specific sequencing to open the chest, release the upper back, and realign your spine. 

This is not a follow-along fitness class. I provide real-time, interactive corrections to ensure you are moving safely. Whether you are 6 weeks or 6 years postpartum, these sessions are designed to help you feel at home in your body again.

## About Pragya Bhatt

I’m Pragya. I teach yoga not as an exercise, but as a path to coming home to yourself after the intensity of pregnancy. My classes are where you drop the pressure to look a certain way and instead learn how to support your body while it recovers and adapts to motherhood.
