I felt called to share my recommendations for the Ayurvedic techniques and tools that have carried me through a healthy and happy pregnancy; not as a specialist in the medicine, but as a consumer who is sharing her testimonials of their successful influence.

MEDITATION BRAIN & BODY

This is the excerpt for a featured post.All stressful triggers initiate the sympathetic nervous system via the Fight or Flight stress response. Stress causes a cascade of changes in the body that can be highly beneficial in the short term but drastically destructive over the long term.
