Prenatal Care
Breathwork, Yoga, Ayurveda
& Spiritual Support
Prenatal Care is one of the most essential needs of our modern world for all mothers and families.
The unity of Breathwork, Yoga and Ayurveda on the journey of conception, pregnancy, delivery and postpartum are incredibly valuable for the health of the mother, child, partner and entire family.
Prenatal Breathwork
Cultivating a discipline of using your breath to increase power and vital is an essential tool in pregnancy, delivery and beyond.
During your prenatal care journey with Shamanic Yoga, you will have one on one Breathwork sessions with founder and creator Athanasia Medenas.
We highly encourage your partner (or whomever you will have with you during labor) to join the sessions.
Prenatal Yoga
Prenatal yoga is designed for pregnant women and baby. It is intended to help ease your pregnancy and prepare for childbirth.
Yoga is intended to create a balance between your emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual bodies. Prenatal yoga is a low-impact movement modality that can help improve your mood and sleep, increase your strength and flexibility, and decrease lower back pain and other common symptoms of pregnancy.
Ayurveda is the Science of Life.
Ayurveda has researched and developed a very sophisticated and detailed procedure that takes care of conception, pregnancy and early development of a child.
The process described is called Garbha Sanskār, which garbha means womb/embryo and sanskār means teaching or imprinting.
Garbha Sanskār is the practice of teaching simple healthy activities that contribute towards the social, physical, spiritual, mental well-being of both mother and child.

Ayurvedic Garbha Sanskār
In Ayurveda, the belief is Garbha Sanskār is essential for creating intelligent and healthy children, while dually important for mother to be happy healthy and aware of her body, mind and spirit before, during and after pregnancy.
Garbha Sanskār helps you mentally become ready for parenthood (even if you already have a child/ren).
And, it helps you have a healthy reproductive system for your pregnancy and beyond.
Prenatal Spiritual Support
Pregnancy is a spiritual journey that takes a woman, partner and family into a whole new way of life.
You don’t have to renounce everything to be on a spiritual path in pregnancy and parenthood.
‘The yoga of householder is a very hard yoga. Not for everyone. Be householder saints.’
- Babaji
‘Children being born now need to be around people with open hearts.’ - Babaji
In Yoga & Ayurveda, the spiritual practice of being a householder (grihasta) is one of the most important ashramas (a system of the stages of life).
One that needs to be cultivated inwardly to be of service to your family and others.
The Householder’s challenge is to “Live in the world but allow not the world to live in you.” - Sri Swami Sivananda
“Birth is the opportunity to transcend. To rise above what we are accustomed to, reach deeper inside ourselves than we are familiar with, and to see not only what we are truly made of, but the strength we can access in and through birth.”
— Marcie Macari
