WEEK 12
Mama! Week 12! This is your 3 month mark, and I KNOW that you are feeling those adaptation at this point...lets talk Mommy Brain!
What is Mommy Brain? It is the drastic shift in hormones after having a baby that just make it...lets just say...challenging to "executive function" in the way that we are used to. Whether you are taking a long or a short maternity leave, feeling good in your brain is important for mood, household, and work decisions. Breath-work can help you!
Did you know that SLOWING your breathing can enhance your cognition? How is that? When you slow your breathing, you increase blood flow to your brain because of the increases and balancing of CO2 to O2 in the body. The CO2 and Nitric Oxide that are by-products of slow breathing both increase the rate of blood flow and the size of the blood vessels in many parts of the body, but especially the brain. How cool is that? Now THAT is VERY helpful for Mommy Brain..we NEED THIS!!! ❤️ Not only are we recovering our Breathing Core Strength, but we are also recovering our BRAIN.
Lets do this Week 12!
