Description 891-898
A transition begins to a period in which all emotions intensify together with the physiological, mental and emotional
changes that occur during the journey of birth which is shaped with the beginning of birth process. Birth process is a moral
and spiritual journey for a woman. In addition to all accompanying symptoms with the start of labour, the woman needs
more support with uterus contractions. Yoga and meditation practices during the antenatal period are effective in promoting
balance and surrender to the process for women. The mind is set free and perfect unity of body, mind and spirit is ensured in
each asana during yoga practices. In each asana during birth process, the body, mind and spirit are united and integrated. In
the meantime, the individuals drift apart from the impacts of external environment, introversion is enabled, and thus the
labour is let flow. Yoga asanas implemented during labour may be shaped in accordance with the flow of labour and
woman’s needs. With these features, perinatal yoga asanas support the mother and foetus physically and spiritually. This
compilation aims to examine the effects of aspiritual integrity through yoga.
