Book Reviews of Itsy Bitsy Yoga: Poses to Help Your Baby Sleep Longer, Digest Better, and Grow StrongerBook Review: Cute and fun Summary: 5 Stars
For infants, the moves are things you might do anyway. But the book helps you focus on being more mindful of the moves. Overall, this book is cute and fun, and I'm looking forward to following along as my child progresses.
Book Review: Easy and fun (even if you've never done yoga) Summary: 5 Stars
I've borrowed seven baby yoga books from our library before finally purchasing this one. This was the only book that both my five- month old babies and I truly enjoyed. Other baby yoga books concentrated on technique, whereas this one focused mostly on bonding with your baby. I love the various routines and how it is broken out by developmental stages. Helen writes the routines so that they are easy to remember and flow from one pose into another. Yoga time quickly became an integral part of our daily routine. As far as helping our babies sleep longer, I haven't noticed any changes (it would have been a nice bonus though). If you are looking for a wonderfully easy and fun bonding experience with some yoga thrown in, this is the book for you.
Book Review: Excellent for Parents and Yoga Teachers Summary: 5 Stars
This new release is outstanding in the field of infant bonding/baby yoga and I believe I have read or reviewed everything that's out there! I bought it for myself the day it was released and now I have to reorder as I'm giving my copy to a friend who is a new mom. Now I'm busing letting all my yoga teacher friends know about this book so they can incorporate it in their classes for children! For moms, Helen begins by setting the intention for your practice with your baby; choose one that fits you: "I am the perfect parent for my baby and my baby is perfect for me," "I remain relaxed as I notice and fulfill my baby's needs", I trust my intuition", or "Yoga is special for my baby and me." A quick scan of the chapter titles reveals that all early developental stages, from infant/newborns, head-holders, almost sitting, almost crawlers, tots, crawlers, almost walking, walkers, and yoga through childhood, are covered here. And as the introduction states "you...don't need any yoga experience to calm your baby and help him or her grown strong." Buy two, and pass one on to a friend, yoga teacher/studio, or your local library. Spread the word! You can't miss this wonderful opportunity to bond with your baby, adopted baby, foster baby, or grandbaby! 'All you need to do is breathe, love, and move!"
Book Review: Excellent! Summary: 5 Stars
I really like this book. I wish I had gotten it earlier! We use it everyday- especially the bedtime series. It is a nice way to wind down the evening. I highly recommend this yoga book.
Book Review: First Time Mom & Acid Reflux Summary: 4 Stars
My daughter had her first child in October and soon discovered that he had acid reflux. This book played a roll in calming both mother and child. He eventually did have to take medication, but I do believe that she found this book to have many great recommendations that proved to be successful.
