Reconnecting with Your Pelvic Floor and Why Every Mom Deserves a Pelvic Floor Checkup

Movement as Medicine: Healing After Postpartum Depression

Around four months postpartum, I was blindsided. Exhaustion, anxiety, rage, and waves of guilt hit me harder than I could have imagined—especially guilt about feeling like I was abandoning my firstborn, who was still so little and needed me. This was my experience with postpartum depression. And with it came something I never expected: a deep disconnect from my body.

If any of these made you flinch a little… you’re not alone, mama.

Most women don’t need more “discipline” during pregnancy or postpartum — they need support, body awareness, and someone to remind them that slowing down is strength.

With my Breathe Sculpt Flow™ method I help you:

💛 Reconnect with your core + pelvic floor safely and confidently
💛 Normalize the ups and downs of being a mom trying to get back to her movement practice, because progress isn’t linear
💛 Feel grounded, strong, and confident in yourself
💛 Build habits that make postpartum recovery so much smoother

🎧 Listen to this week’s Breathe Sculpt Flow episode — “Pelvic Floor Awareness and Reconnection” to learn how to rebuild your foundation. Dm me and I'll send you the link.

#pelvicfloorawareness #pelvicgirdlepain #prenatalyogaonline #postnatalyoga #yourpelvicfloorafterbirth

Pelvic floor health during pregnancy shouldn't feel like another to-do in your list. It should be finding moments to breathe, align, and move with intention.

Start with just one of these today and notice how your body responds. Small shifts add up to big differences.

✨ In this week's Breathe Sculpt Flow Podcast, I explain what your pelvic floor does for you, what role it plays in labor and why a pelvic floor check up with a specialist is so important after birth.

You've got this! Small actions now = a stronger you tomorrow💛

With World Mental Health Day this month, I've been thinking about something: how many of us are waiting for life to calm down before we take care of ourselves? 💛

I get it. I really do. I've done it and still do it every now and then. Between the kids, the to-do list, and everything in between, it's so easy to put yourself last. But here's what I've learned — waiting just keeps us in that same exhausted cycle.

And there's actually some interesting research behind why this matters:
🧠 Our brains are maxed out. We make over 35,000 decisions a day, so by the time we get to ourselves, we're often too tired to choose what feels good. Building in small, simple rituals takes the decision out of it — and that makes all the difference.

⚡ Action creates energy. Waiting until we "feel motivated" rarely works. But taking one small step — even just two minutes of breathing — often creates the motivation and energy we thought we needed first.

💛 Your wellness ripples outward. Research shows that when moms prioritize their mental health, their kids benefit too. Children of moms with better well-being show stronger emotional regulation and resilience. So when you say yes to yourself, you're also saying yes to them.

You don't need to wait for the perfect moment. You can start exactly where you are — with one small, doable yes.

Here are a few gentle ways to begin:

5 minutes of mindful movement
One scroll swapped for one stretch
Water before coffee (yes, even on the chaotic mornings)
One small non-negotiable pocket of time for yourself each week

Because taking care of yourself isn't selfish. It's how you show up with more energy, calm, and presence for the people you love.

✨ Want to go deeper? I talk more about this on the Breathe Sculpt Flow Podcast — how saying yes to yourself is one of the most powerful things you can do for your mental health. 🎧

So tell me — what's one gentle yes you're ready to give yourself this October?

Or maybe I should say… fortunately. Because all of this is actually within your reach.

The truth is, consistent movement and mindfulness don't have to look big to make a big difference. A breath, a stretch, a slow walk — these simple things build strength, calm, and confidence over time.

That's the heart of Breathe Sculpt Flow™ — small, repeatable practices that grow with you through pregnancy and postpartum.

✨ Start small. Stay consistent. That's where transformation happens.

Want more? This week on the Breathe Sculpt Flow Podcast, I'm talking about how these tiny rituals add up to real change and can help you stay mentally healthy. 🎧 Link in bio.

What's one small thing you're committing to this week? Tell me below. 💛

#movementismedicine #worldmentalhealthday❤️ #motherhoodsimplified #MotherhoodPodcast #breathesculptflow #pregnancyfitnesstips #PostpartumSupport #mindfulmama

The little rituals you keep showing up for (a morning walk, a few deep breaths, a gentle stretch) those are the ones that change everything. 🌿

Not the grand plans. Not the perfect routine you keep waiting to start. Just the small things you actually do.

Because in pregnancy, postpartum, in life, really, it's not about doing more. It's about finding consistency in the simple practices that keep you grounded, connected, and resilient — even when life feels like a lot.

So next time you catch yourself thinking "I don't have time for a full workout," remember this: five minutes is still medicine. Five minutes still counts. Five minutes can shift your entire day.

✨ I actually dive deeper into why these small rituals matter so much in this week's episode of the Breathe Sculpt Flow Podcast. If you've been struggling to prioritize yourself or wondering how to make wellness feel doable in this season, give it a listen. Link in bio. 🎧

Now tell me, what's your little ritual that keeps you grounded? Drop it below. I'd love to know what's working for you. 💛

💌 And if you know a mama who needs this reminder, tag her and save this for the days you both forget.

#motherhoodsimplified #sayyestoyou #prenatalyoga #postnatalyoga #BreatheSculptFlow

Save this as a gentle reminder that grounded doesn’t have to mean perfect — it simply means being present.

Here's what I've learned: it's not about the perfect routine or doing all the things. It's about the small, simple rituals that actually fit into your real life; the ones that help you reconnect with yourself, even on the hard days.

They’re what start to unfold naturally when you give yourself permission to slow down, listen in, and honour your changing body and season.

Think of them as little anchors — daily moments that help you feel more you, even when everything around you is shifting.

What's one small thing you'd love to bring into your day this week? If you write it down, there's a higher chance it will actually happen ✨

…celebrate progress, not just big wins.
(A five-minute stretch before bed was enough to shift my whole mood.)

…carve out intentional time for myself instead of hoping it “fits in.”
(A short walk, a quiet meal, even two deep breaths matter.)

…trust the messy middle.
The process is where strength is built — in business, in pregnancy, in healing, in motherhood.

So as we step into October 🍂
Which reminder are you carrying forward with you?

I know it’s easy to wait until “life calms down” to give yourself that space. But what I’ve found is that it’s those small, everyday choices that move me closer to how I want to feel.

Moving forward, I’m carrying intentional rituals with me into October — protecting the little moments that create big shifts.

And maybe these reminders are something you could lean into too. 🫶

By the way, if you'd like to try a short grounding practice, I got one for you on my podcast, DM me and I'll send you the link to the episode.

ONLY 1 DAY LEFT TO JOIN🤗

The doors to Move with Ease close in 24 hours — and once they do, they’re locked until next year.

I’m feeling all the emotions as I count down. Why? Because I know just how powerful these next 6 weeks can be for you.

🌿 Move with Ease is my signature prenatal yoga + fitness program designed to relieve pregnancy aches, build strength, and prepare you for birth — so you can move through pregnancy with ease without long studio classes or rigid schedules. It’s for mamas who are done “just pushing through” the back pain, pelvic ache, swollen feet, and sleepless nights.

And here’s the thing: this isn’t a fake countdown. Enrollment truly closes tomorrow at midnight — and when it’s gone, it’s gone until 2026.

I’ve watched moms go from dreading their day with back pain to feeling good and energized. From tossing and turning every night to actually sleeping. From worrying if they’re doing the “right” exercises to feeling strong, grounded, and deeply connected to their bodies.

So, why the urgency? Because… we bought a house 🥳! And I want to make sure I can truly support and guide you through the program in these next 6 weeks. I’ll still be available from mid-November — but not in the same high-touch way I will be with this round.

If you’re still on the fence, pause and imagine where you could be 6 weeks from now:

✨ Feeling stronger and more energized

✨ Sleeping better

✨ Confidently moving through pregnancy

✨ Actually enjoying this chapter of your life — and having the mental space to prepare for baby’s arrival

This is your moment — your last chance this year — not just to join Move with Ease but to make a decision that could redefine your pregnancy.

💛 Are you in? If your heart says yes, don’t let this moment slip away. Click the link in my bio or DM me to enroll before the doors close tomorrow, Oct 1st.

Time waits for no one… and neither does your pregnancy. Let’s make these weeks count. 🌿

#yogaforpregnancy #prenatalworkout #prenatalyoga #momtobe #movewithease #secondtrimester #thirdtrimester

When you say yes to Move with Ease, you’re saying yes to a pregnancy where you feel supported, strong, and confident for whatever comes your way.

And the results speak for themselves:

"100% join - you can do it at your own pace, choosing which workouts your body needs most while feeling confident that the workouts are pregnancy safe." - Christine ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This isn’t just another “prenatal yoga class.”

✨ Let’s make the next 6 weeks the most empowering of your pregnancy.

JUST A GLIMPSE🌟

As I gear up for my very first launch of Move with Ease, I want to show you a sneak peek of what's inside and how easy it is to access it via the mobile App.

One of the first things you'll learn is my signature 360-Degree Breath technique and it will shift how you experience your entire pregnancy.

✨️Here's what Sarah, who tested my program said after conpleting the program:

"I feel I'm better at finding and making space in my diaphragm. It's helped a lot with shortness of breath, and the breathing techniques were absolutely crucial during my labor!"

Breath is your foundation for pain relief, energy, birth preparation, and connecting with your baby. When you master this, everything else becomes possible.

This is just one piece of the puzzle. It sets the stage for everything that follows in the BreatheSculptFlow method, ensuring you're not just doing exercises, but truly transforming your pregnancy experience.

And it's just one of many powerful elements that make Move with Ease so much more than your average prenatal program.

➡️ I'm officially launching this Thursday, September25th! BUT if you join VIP list now, you get early access, exclusive early bird pricing + TWO private sessions with me😎

Dm me or go to link in bio. And if you have any questions, I'm here for you🤍

#prenatalyogaonline #pregnancybackpain #pelvicgirdlepain #movewithease #pregnancyworkouts

The signs everyone ignores (but you shouldn't) 👆

Here's what I see happen all the time:

You notice these signals, mention them to friends or family, and get told "that's just pregnancy for you" or "it'll pass after baby comes."

But what if I told you these aren't signs to ignore - they're signs that your body is ready for the support it deserves?

That's exactly what Move with Ease does - it helps you honor these signals instead of ignoring them.

Pregnancy-safe movement that works WITH your body's wisdom, not against it. On your schedule, in your home, with a community of mamas who get it.

AND this Tuesday September 23rd I'm opening enrollment for my VIP list with special early bird pricing + two bonus one-on-one sessions with me (spots are limited).

🌟 Ready to stop ignoring what your body has been trying to tell you? DM me and I'll add you to the VIP list for first access and those special bonuses (or check link im bio).

Because the signs you've been ignoring? They're actually your roadmap to a more comfortable pregnancy. ✨

#prenatalyoga #prenatalfitness #prenatalyogaonline #pelvicgirdlepain #pregnancybackpain

We all love a feel-good transformation, especially when it shows what's possible for us too, right? Let me introduce you to Sarah's story.

Sarah's journey isn't just about managing back pain; it's about flipping the script on what it means to exercise with a previous injury during pregnancy. She said goodbye to the days of fear, uncertainty, and accepting discomfort as inevitable. She transformed her second and third trimester experience AND her birth preparation in the most empowering way possible.

If you're fed up with pregnancy discomfort, movement anxiety (especially with previous injuries), and feeling unprepared for birth, remember - it's not you who needs to change, it's your approach to prenatal movement.

Ready to feel empowered in your body so you can make space to prepare for birth?

🌟 Drop "EASE" in the comments or send me a DM to get on the VIP list for Move with Ease, plus exclusive early bird pricing and my pregnancy comfort toolkit FREE.

This week I’ve been:
– Supporting mamas with back and pelvic pain so they can actually enjoy their pregnancy
– Creating flows that fit into real mom life (think: 20 minutes, during nap time, no fancy setup required)
– Putting the final touches on my Move with Ease program, opening next week for early enrollment

Early access opens NEXT WEEK!
If you’re pregnant and ready to feel strong, comfortable, and confident, without the guesswork—this is for you.

👉 Drop “EASE” below and I’ll make sure you get the details first.

#momof2 #prenatalyoga #movewithease #movementismedicine

This is YOUR reminder that transforming pregnancy discomfort can be simpler and more within reach when you apply the right method designed specifically for your changing body.

As a prenatal movement expert, I've seen time and again how the combination of breath work, targeted strength, and intuitive flow creates profound shifts. I believe in the power of the BreatheSculptFlow™ method, and Christine's transformation is a testament to that.

"This program allowed me to move my body while pregnant with twins without questioning if what I am doing will be too much or harmful for my babies. I have significantly less pelvic and lower back pain - plus energy after workouts!" - Christine
AND THIS IS ALSO EXACTLY WHY MOVE WITH EASE EXISTS.

In just 1 week, doors are opening for Move with Ease, my 6-week program where we use the BreatheSculptFlow™ method and where I give the EXACT support that Christine had for this transformation.

🌟 If you want to be on the VIP list for when Move with Ease launches and create a transformation like this for yourself, then drop "EASE" below or send me a DM. Your body deserves to feel this good during pregnancy! I'll see you there!

#healthypregnancy #yogaforbackpain #movewithease #prenatalworkout #yogaprenatal

My insights from teaching prenatal yoga to hundreds of women and going through two pregnancies myself:

If there's one thing I know for sure, it's that if you want to feel strong and more comfortable during pregnancy, you HAVE to master your breath first.

Why? Because your breath is the foundation of everything - pain relief, energy, birth preparation, and connecting with your baby. Without it, you're just doing exercises. With it, you're transforming your entire pregnancy experience.

It's why when I was creating Move with Ease - launching in 1 week - two things were clear:

There were things I HAD to put inside to help you truly transform your pregnancy experience...

and things that I WOULDN'T include as they would make your journey more complicated than it needs to be.

WHAT IS INSIDE?

✅ My signature BreatheSculptFlow™ method - because breath isn't optional; it's the key that unlocks everything else

✅ Pregnancy-specific strength training - because you need to build functional strength for birth and motherhood, not just "stay active"

✅ Intuitive movement flows - because your body knows what it needs, and I'll teach you how to listen

AND WHAT ISN'T INSIDE?

❌ Generic "prenatal" modifications - because real transformation requires movements designed FOR pregnancy, not watered-down versions

❌ Rigid schedules that don't fit mama life - because flexibility isn't a nice-to-have; it's essential for busy expecting mothers

❌ Fear-based "don't do this" lists - because confidence comes from knowing what you CAN do, not constantly worrying about what you can't

It's this combination I truly believe is the PERFECT way for you to move through pregnancy feeling strong, comfortable, and completely confident in your body.

🌟 If you're ready to embark on this journey of transformation, Move with Ease is launching September 23rd, and it's unlike anything else out there - it's my signature method that got my beta testers real results in just 6 weeks.

🌟 You NEED to be on the VIP list for when Move with Ease open to get exclusive early bird pricing and a 60-minute 1:1 session with me! DM me and I'll add you💌

Can we speak honestly?

Too many pregnant mamas think they need to wrap themselves in bubble wrap and avoid movement to protect their baby. But what you actually need is the RIGHT kind of movement that supports both you and your growing baby.

Every day I see expecting mothers dealing with back pain, pelvic discomfort, and exhaustion - thinking this is just "normal" pregnancy stuff they have to endure. They've been told to "take it easy" or only do gentle stretching, so they either do nothing or worry constantly about whether they're doing something wrong.

But here's what's really happening: Your body is designed to move during pregnancy. In fact, staying active with the RIGHT guidance actually reduces your risk of complications, helps manage pain, and prepares your body for birth and recovery.

Instead of avoiding movement, you need to start asking yourself:
- Am I moving in ways that support my changing body?
- Do I know which exercises are actually safe and beneficial right now?
- Am I building the strength and stamina I'll need for birth?
- Am I balancing activity with true restorative rest?

If you're not feeling strong, energized, and confident in your body? Then it's time to focus LESS on being cautious and MORE on learning how to move with intention and safety.

The truth is: Movement isn't just safe during pregnancy - it's essential. But it needs to be the RIGHT movement, taught by someone who understands exactly what your body needs right now.

And that’s exactly what I teach inside my Move with Ease program.

Are you dealing with pregnancy discomfort because you've been too afraid to move? Or do you have questions about what's actually safe? Comment the word Ease to join the waitlist and get 25€ off when enrollment opens NEXT WEEK.

You can also DM me, of course. I'd love to help you feel confident about staying active during this amazing time! 💪🤰

HERE’S HOW IT HAPPENED ⬇️

During my first pregnancy, I honestly thought pain was just part of the deal. Back and pelvic pain, swollen feet, sleepless nights… I told myself it was “normal.”

But deep down, I felt disconnected and frustrated. I wanted to feel strong, comfortable, and ready for birth, but I wasn't sure if what I was doing was right

By my second pregnancy, I made a different choice. I realized I didn’t need to “push through.” I needed to move with ease.

So, I started combining yoga, simple strength training, and mindful breathing in ways that worked for my energy and my changing body.

And that’s when the magic began:

✨ I stopped accepting pain as my normal and found ways to relieve it

✨ I felt stronger and more confident preparing for birth

✨ I created space to actually enjoy my pregnancy

Now, at 15 months postpartum, I can honestly say those little practices carried me through pregnancy, birth, and into motherhood with more comfort and confidence.

If you’ve been feeling stuck in discomfort or unsure how to support your body right now, know this: you don’t need to accept pain as your norm.

I’ll be sharing more very soon about how my upcoming Move with Ease program can guide you step by step.

💌 DM me the word “EASE” if you want me to send you the details when it’s ready.

#movewithease #prenatalfitness #pregnancybackpain

When everything feels like it’s changing (hello, pregnancy & postpartum!), this quick 2-minute practice helps me feel grounded again. Sharing it with you today 🤍

The "Circle of Groundedness" Practice

Find a comfortable seat or lie down.
Place one hand on your heart and one on your belly.
Breathe in for 4 counts, imagining a warm, soothing light.
Hold for 2 counts, letting that warmth flow through you.
Exhale for 6 counts, releasing tension or stress.
Repeat 3–5 times.

🌟 Pregnant? Feel a deeper connection with your baby and ease anxious thoughts.
🌟 Postpartum? Ground yourself in the present, especially in those overwhelming moments.

This practice carried me through pregnancy, birth, and now, at 15 months postpartum. It’s simple but so powerful.

Take a moment to try it now and tell me: What’s the first sensation or shift you notice?

Follow for more mindfulness tips💫

You are not broken, your body isn't failing you - you just need the RIGHT support!
If you're feeling uncomfortable, exhausted, or frustrated with your changing body, it's likely you're missing one (or ALL) of these 5 things!!

Are you seeing a pattern here?
You need movement that actually WORKS for your pregnant body, not generic advice that treats all pregnant women the same.

And here's the good news:
Each one of these is achievable AND the solution is simpler than you think.
I've spent the past 4 years (and two pregnancies of my own) mastering how to make pregnancy movement both effective AND enjoyable, and have discovered the exact combination of breath work, strength, and mobility that not just gets you comfortable but gets you feeling empowered and prepared for birth.

Curious about how you can shift from feeling heavy and achy to feeling strong and energized? It's all part of my upcoming Move with Ease program.

If you're tired of just "managing" pregnancy discomforts and ready to FEEL BETTER. DM me "I'm ready" and I'll send you details as soon as they're available.

Let's prepare you for your most confident pregnancy ever 💛

#activepregnancy #healthypregnancy #birthprep

I cannot say this loud enough❕️

▫️Your body isn't fragile; it's incredibly adaptable and needs the right kind of challenge to stay strong
▫️Morning sickness doesn't mean you can't move; gentle movement often helps more than lying still
▫️Back pain isn't "just part of pregnancy"; it's your body asking for better support and alignment
▫️You don't have to choose between being gentle and being effective - you can have both
▫️Preparing for birth is about building endurance AND flexibility, not just breathing techniques
▫️Your mental health benefits as much from movement as your physical comfort does

Pregnant bodies are POWERFUL. They're designed to adapt, grow, and do incredible things - but only when we support them properly, not treat them like they might break.

Ask yourself... are you really feeling supported by the pregnancy advice you're getting? Is it helping you feel stronger and more comfortable? Or are you just being told to "take it easy" while you suffer through discomforts that could actually be relieved?

I'm working behind the scenes on my Move with Ease program to help you feel comfortable, strong, and prepared throughout pregnancy, and I wanted to share this because this mindset shift is exactly what this solution is all about. Your body deserves better than just "surviving" pregnancy.

Drop a 💪 if this shifted something for you, or share this with a pregnant mama who needs to hear it!

#movewithease #pregnancyfitnesstips #pregnantandpowerful

STOP forcing yourself through gentle stretches that don't address your real discomforts. Do this instead 👇

I love AND teach traditional prenatal yoga. If taught right, it can be SO helpful. But here's the thing: Most prenatal yoga classes focus on "being gentle" but completely ignore that your body also needs STRENGTH and targeted relief, not just slow stretching.

And that approach that's going to get you actually feeling better AND preparing your body for the marathon of birth and motherhood?

Is my Breathe Sculpt Flow™ method.

This method combines breath work and midnfulness with targeted strength building and mobility that actually addresses where pregnant bodies hurt - your lower back, your pelvis, your tight hips. It's not about moving slower; it's about moving SMARTER for your changing body.

When you embrace this approach, you'll find yourself actually looking forward to movement because you feel the relief immediately. You'll build the stamina you need for labor while easing the discomforts that are stealing your energy right now.

Are you feeling like traditional prenatal classes are leaving you disappointed? Your body is asking for something more intentional, and you deserve to feel strong and comfortable.

If you're ready to experience movement that actually transforms how you feel in your pregnant body, keep an eye out. My Move with Ease program is designed exactly for mamas who are done settling for "gentle enough" and ready for "actually effective." 💛

That was me 20 weeks pregnant blissfully enjoying my baby moon while struggling with back pain in the mornings... Let's not let that happen to you. Let's fix your morning back pain struggle for good 👉

And don't forget to save this post for later. You're going to want this ritual every single morning!

Your back pain isn't "just part of pregnancy" - it's your body asking for some gentle, intentional movement. This 2-minute morning ritual has helped so many of my mamas transform their mornings from painful to peaceful.

Share this with a pregnant friend who needs to see this💛

👋Hi there,

If you're a pregnant mama looking to move through your pregnancy with ease, energy, and confidence so you can focus on preparing for baby's arrival, you're in the right place.

I'm Melissa Schuler and here's what I'm all about:

🌿As a mom of two and certified prenatal and postpartum yoga instructor, I understand firsthand how frustrating pregnancy discomforts are - the back pain that makes you wince getting out of bed, the pelvic pain that slows you down, and that overwhelming fatigue that makes you question if this is just "normal". I created Move with Ease because I refused to believe we had to just “put up with it”.

🌿My BreatheSculptFlow™ method combines the physical benefits of safe, pregnancy-specific yoga and strength training with the mental clarity of mindfulness practices - all designed to fit into your real life (even when you’re tired, short on time, or chasing a toddler). It’s not about perfection, it’s about finding what feels good in your body and building consistency.

🌿My values: No guilt, no rigid schedules, no one-size-fits-all approach. Just supportive tools to help you feel stronger, calmer, and more prepared for birth and postpartum.

In our community, I share evidence and science-based techniques, celebrate every mama's unique journey, and create a safe space where you can ask questions without judgment. Whether you're dealing with morning sickness or third-trimester discomfort, whether this is your first baby(ies) or your fourth, you belong here.

And with you here, you can expect practical tools, genuine support, and guidance that honors both your body's wisdom and your baby's needs. You can expect to feel more comfortable in your body, more connected to your baby, and more confident in your ability to move through this pregnancy with ease.

Follow along for tips, encouragement, and simple practices that will help you create the pregnancy experience you deserve💛

And if you're not pregnant and know someone who is, share this with them💜

As a pregnancy & postpartum yoga + fitness guide, I don’t just teach movement — I do my best to live it.
But here’s the truth: ease doesn’t just happen. I set myself up for it.

What I keep in my space makes it so much easier to show up, even on low-energy days.

Here’s what’s always within reach:

– A yoga mat that stays unrolled → because decision fatigue is real.
– Comfy clothes → I love practicing in my pj's
– Yoga blocks + a bolster → for support on the days I need more softness.
– Light to moderate weights → just in case... Ready to go for strength days
– A cushion → because sometimes all I need is to breathe
– Water bottle → because otherwise I always forget it

The goal isn’t to push.
It’s to have what I need to feel good already waiting for me.

💛 This is the same philosophy I bring to the Move with Ease program — simple, supportive tools that actually help you feel better in your body, not worse.

What’s your non-negotiable for feeling good in your movement space?

This isn’t just an on-demand prenatal yoga & workout library.

It’s a space to breathe, sculpt, and flow mentally and physically — even on the hard days.
It’s about moving in a way that meets you where you are.

Here's what my Move with Ease founding members are saying:

✨ "I just have to take a moment to say that the yoga for swollen feet and achey legs (from week 2) is perfection 😍! I did it this evening after a walk and it felt great! Absolutely one I will be repeating."

✨ "The Yoga for back pain relief has been amazing. I've had chronic back pain my entire adult life, and with this pregnancy, it's been pretty bad. Having that class to fall back on when my back is particularly sore has been really great."

✨ "The mindful movement mobility flow has been the most helpful for me so far. When I feel overwhelmed and unsure if I can do anything after dealing with nausea all day, those movement help a lot to just kind of put me back together."

They didn’t have to push through. Or do it perfectly.
They chose a session based on how they felt that day — and still felt the shift.

💛 This is what Move with Ease is all about. THIS IS WHY I CREATED IT

✔️ Relief from back and pelvic pain
✔️ Calmer sleep
✔️ Feeling more in tune with your body

And the best part? You’re not doing it alone.
You’ll get guidance, community, and real support — not just a playlist of classes.

Doors open in September.

If you’re still telling yourself that you’ll start moving again once the nausea passes... or once you’re less tired… or once things calm down a bit — you’re not alone.
Pregnancy and motherhood asks so much of us, and the “all or nothing” mindset can be so loud.

But what if movement didn’t have to be perfect to be supportive?

In the Move with Ease world, we make space for real-life pregnancy — the aches, the joys, the moments when even getting on the mat and "only" doing yoga nidra feels like a win.

You don’t need to earn rest. You don’t need to push through pain.
You just need a space that meets you where you are.

If you've ever told yourself "this back pain is just part of being pregnant", hear me loud and clear:

Your body is doing something incredible AND discomfort shouldn't be the baseline.

Move with Ease is my signature program that helps you relieve pregnancy discomfort through mindful movement, breath and real-life support.

Support that's:

💛 Practical and usable in everyday ups and downs of pregnancy.
💛Grounded in my own lived experience managing and treating aches and pains in my two pregnancies.
💛Flexible and responsive, so you don't feel pressured to push through pain or follow a rigid routine.
💛Compassionate and human, acknowledging that pregnancy isn't always glowing and graceful, and that some days just feel hard.

We start soon, and spots will be limited.

I'm doing something that honestly makes my heart race a little... 💓

After months of creating Move with Ease between diaper changes and stolen moments during naptime, I'm ready to share it with the world.

But first, I need 5 brave mamas to help me make it even better.

I'm looking for pregnant women who are:

✨ Dealing with aches, pains, or just feeling disconnected from their body
✨ Ready to try a gentler approach that actually works
✨ Willing to share their honest experience with me

What you'd get:

- Complete 6-week Move with Ease program (€175 value)
- 2 private coaching sessions with me
- All my attention and support throughout
- Lifetime access to future updates

What I need:
- Your honest feedback and permission to share your journey (anonymously if you prefer)

This program was born from my own pregnancy struggles and everything I've learned teaching prenatal yoga. It's for mamas dealing with aches and pains who want to feel stronger and at ease in their mind and body.

If this speaks to you, comment "ME" below or send me a DM. I'll choose 5 women by Sunday.

Even if you don't apply, I see you mama. This journey isn't always easy, but we can do hard things!

Nobody tells you how hard it is to build a business with a baby on your hip.

Finishing up the final pieces of my Move with Ease program… during nap time, with a cold coffee nearby (not in the video because I left it in the kitchen😂). It’s not always pretty, but it’s happening.

Are you juggling big dreams and little ones too? Let's do this!

Building connection through movement:

Pregnancy and postpartum are journeys you don’t have to deal with on your own. Simple ways to involve your partner:

✨ Supported squats for strength and stability (we loved doing these holding hands almost every evening💗)

✨ Gentle hip-opening to ease tension

✨ Relaxing breathwork for calm and connection

✨ Partner stretches to share the load (literally!)

Whether you're:

🤰 Creating space for baby during pregnancy

📦 Rebuilding strength postpartum

These small, intentional movements are about more than physical support—they’re about connection.

💕 Shout out to my hubby. If you're watching this, I love you😘

Are you involving your partner in your birth prep?

It's Feel Good Friday! Let's celebrate the strength that shows up within us in unexpected ways 💫

Like...

🌟 Modifying your favorite yoga pose to meet your pregnant body’s needs
🌟 Getting up (again) for the 5th night feed
🌟 Trusting your instincts, even when you doubt yourself
🌟 Asking for help because strength is also in connection
🌟 Resting without guilt and honoring your limits
🌟 Starting over, gently, with self-compassion

As a second time mom, I’m reminded daily how strength doesn’t always look like effort—it often shows up in letting go.

🌟 Your Turn: What’s a moment in your journey where you surprised yourself with your strength?

#motherhoodstrength #pregnancyjourney #postpartumstrength #motherhoodunited #youareimportant #youareenough #selfdoubt #iamenough #youareworthy #embracechange #movingforward #bekindtoyourself #youvegotthis #feelgoodfriday

Going through this myself and supporting many moms, here's your core change roadmap:

Pregnancy:
✨ Your core expands to create space for your baby (it’s meant to!).
✨ Muscles stretch up to 50%.
✨ Your body’s support shifts from your core to your back and pelvic floor.

Postpartum:
🌱 Healing begins deep within—function comes before appearance.
🌱 Reconnection takes time and gentle effort.
🌱 It’s about what your core does, not how it looks.

Key Reminders:
1️⃣ Your body’s timeline is unique to you.
2️⃣ Healing is never a straight path.
3️⃣ Small, consistent steps create big transformations.
4️⃣ The right guidance and support make all the difference.

At 6 months postpartum, I’m still building my connection—and that’s exactly how it’s supposed to be.

❓What’s your biggest core question or concern? Drop it below, and let’s chat!

Let’s have some real talk about body changes, shall we? 💗

At 6 months postpartum—and after supporting so many amazing mamas through pregnancy and beyond—here’s what I wish every woman knew:

🌟 Your body isn't "bouncing back" - it's moving forward
🌟 Each stage has its own timeline, and yours is just right.
🌟 What feels hard today might become your strength tomorrow.
🌟 Even when it feels foreign, your body is always on your side.

A few truths I’ve learned along the way:

- Pelvic pain ➡️ Core rebuilding (Both require patience and kindness).
- Pregnancy insomnia ➡️ Newborn nights and teething struggles (Both build our resilience, even when it doesn’t feel like it).
- The pregnancy waddle ➡️ The postpartum shuffle (Our bodies adapt in the most amazing ways).
- Pregnancy brain ➡️ Mom brain (Our brains are brilliant, always prioritizing what matters most).

Motherhood isn’t a straight path—and honestly, that’s what makes it so profound.

🤍Tell me: What change has surprised you most on your journey?

The first pick was taken by amazing photographer Leigh Watson @doulaheart_photography
The second one is me just a couple of weeks postpartum, healing from my second belly birth.

Our bodies have different needs in every season, and this pose is one of my favorites for honoring that shift. 🤍

At 6 months postpartum, I’ve lived both sides of this journey—teaching prenatal yoga and experiencing it firsthand—and this pose has been my best friend. Just 5 minutes a day or less and I feel calmer and more grounded:

🤰 In Pregnancy:

- Wide-legged child’s pose with a cozy bolster
- Creates space for baby
- Eases lower back tension
- Supports those hips through all the changes

📦 In Postpartum:

- Same pose, new intention
- Reconnects with your core (so important postpartum!)
- Relieves upper back tension (hello, nursing shoulders!)
- Encourages gentle hip recovery and deep breathing

The magic isn’t about perfection; it’s about showing up for your body and listening to what it needs today.

👇 Which version do you need today? Drop a 🤰or 📦 below to share where you are in your journey, and I’ll share tips for how to make this pose work for you.

This is still so true! I’m 6 months postpartum after my second pregnancy, and I can GUARANTEE that this advice is still at the top of my list—and even I, who wrote it, need reminders sometimes!

Finding realistic ways to move, feel strong, and ease common pregnancy pains without adding stress or pressure IS exactly what I teach my students.

💫If you’re pregnant and want support that fits your lifestyle, follow along and stay tuned for my upcoming prenatal yoga and exercise program.

#prenatalyoga #pregnancyhealth #prenatalfitness #healthypregnancy #firsttrimester #getgrounded #mindandbodyhealth #secondtrimester #motherhood

When I was pregnant the first time, I had way more flexibility in my schedule. I’d sneak in 15 minutes of yoga during my lunch break to relieve the aches from sitting, then maybe some strength training at night after my toddler went to bed. But let’s be real—it wasn’t every day, and I adapted based on how I felt.

Now, with baby at home all day and nap schedules that barely exist, things look different. These days, it’s a quick 10-15 minute practice during naps or even with baby by my side! Strength? That’s reserved for mornings when I have energy. And in the evening, I’m usually winding down with restorative poses instead. The thing is, not working out or practicing yogasana as often is ok because I still have the strength I built during pregnancy.

💫 Here's what I wish I knew earlier:
• Your practice evolves with each season
• Consistency > perfection
• 10 minutes with intention beats 60 minutes of pushing
• Your body knows exactly what it needs

💛Pregnancy, motherhood—each phase calls for its own rhythm. And if you’re pregnant and navigating this too, I’m here to help you find ways to adapt your movement practice so it works for you.

💕If you're pregnant and feeling overwhelmed about staying active, I get it. That's exactly why I created "Move with Ease" - my newest prenatal yoga and strength program designed to bring you relief and strength, and meet you exactly where you are.

Keeping active during pregnancy and into motherhood is important, but before diving into any workout or yoga routine, there are a few things you should know to make sure it’s the right fit for you.

🩶Have you considered how your workouts will impact both your energy levels and comfort? Finding gentle movement that boosts energy without overdoing it can make a world of difference.

🩶Did you know that certain moves can actually help with common pregnancy and postpartum pains, like backaches and pelvic discomfort? Learning these simple moves can support both your body and mind through these huge transitions.

🩶Less can mean more. Some can push your body too far, which we want to avoid. Prioritizing short, easy-to-follow movements are key to stay consistent and actually see results.

So before you jump in, take a moment to consider these tips—these small adjustments can truly help you feel your best and prevent you from wasting the precious time you have on your hands on movement practices that don't work for you.

I wrote a blog post about this on my website (link in bio)

The thing is, I hadn't slept much the night before and I was just high on caffeine😅

So thanks to that fabulous idea, I ended up frustrated and feeling guilty for not being able to do more for my body, for not being productive with my time, for not having more energy... (As if taking care of a baby, a toddler and a household isn’t enough!)

And I wanted to share this with you because I know I’m not alone. We all have these supermom moments. But sometimes, what we really need is to understand how we can make our movement practice work for us. Adapt it to our lifestyle, not the other way around.

I took a deep breath and realized something I’m constantly preaching to my clients: Honoring our bodies, both during and after pregnancy, means giving ourselves some grace! Pushing beyond that doesn’t make us stronger—it just adds more frustration.

I love the saying: We can do it all, just not at the same time! And that's okay!

👉Do you ever find yourself setting these big expectations and hitting a wall? Or had a recent learning moment yourself? On Friday, I'll be giving you some tips that have helped me.

Little Tailo is here🥰

He arrived a week ago on Friday and we're enjoying the cuddles. Frey is being such a gentle and caring big brother, it melts my heart❤️🫠

My postpartum recovery has been going really well. It's all thanks to the amazing support I have from my husband, my mom and the midwives visiting me almost every day, reminding me to take it easy.

We have about 5 more weeks of rest before we head to California and Mexico for a month of sun and beach. I'll be back in August ready to share with you all of the mom and yogi insights I've been gaining in this journey.

Until then, I might show up here and there but wish you anyway a warm and relaxing spring/summer🌞

Had an amazing maternity home photo session with the wonderful Leigh @doulaheart_photography. She's an amazing photographer and beautiful soul💜. These two pics pretty much summarize the last few weeks. Prepping for our new family member. Just a few weeks to go🤗

The past week has been a bit of a roller-coaster with some highs and lows regarding my pregnancy. I'm so thankful my mom is here and that I also have @douladarby supporting me in this journey towards an empowering birth.

I might ghost you a little in the next weeks but promise to let you know as soon as the little one is here😊

Sending you love and strength! 💞

There may be a way for you to ease that pregnancy back or pelvic pain, and guess what? You don't need hours of workouts or yoga to feel better🤰💪

Exercise during pregnancy isn’t just safe, it’s incredibly beneficial! 🤰💪

Unless your doctor has told you otherwise, of course.

There are studies after studies proving that staying active can ease discomfort, prepare your body for birth, and make postpartum recovery smoother (In my blog I regularly post on the amazing benefits of yoga and exercise in pregnancy).

You DON’T need to be a fitness or yoga guru or spend hours in the gym. All you need is to dedicate just 20 to 30 minutes, three times a week, to practice breath, movement, and strength. It's about honoring your body and your journey through pregnancy🧘‍♀️✨

Movement is medicine, especially during pregnancy!

Do you ever struggle with keeping your cool when your little one throws a tantrum? 🤯

For me, the times I feel the most frazzled are now during my second pregnancy. With a toddler running around and another little one on the way, patience seems to be in short supply! 😅 Is this happening to you, too?

The only thing that helps me: Breathing. Yes, taking a moment to breathe deeply has saved me from many "mommy meltdown" moments. It's amazing how something as simple as a few deep breaths can reset your entire mindset. 🌬️💆‍♀️

So, if you find yourself in the midst of chaos, whether it’s a tantrum or just the craziness of daily life, remember to pause, take a deep breath, and show yourself some compassion. You’re doing the best you can! 💕

If you've experienced this too, please share your tips. I'm sure moms in this community will thank you for it 🤍
