Exercício na gravidez

 

 

 

 

 

 

Beneficia mãe e bebé

De acordo com o Departamento de Obstetrícia, Ginecologia e Saúde da Mulher da Faculdade de Medicina de Saint Louis, nos Estados Unidos da América, as mulheres que fazem exercício durante a gravidez têm menos probabilidades de desenvolver certas doenças, como a diabetes gestacional, e também toleram melhor o parto.

Para além disso, o bebé também é beneficiado, uma vez que a sua frequência cardíaca fetal fica mais baixa.

Mas, não se esqueça, antes de começar a praticar desporto consulte primeiro o seu médico mesmo que seja uma praticante habitual, o seu treino terá de ser adaptado à sua condição física ao longo da gravidez.

 

Se puder fazer exercício experimente

Yoga, natação, caminhada, danças ligeiras, bicicleta estática, corrida ou outro exercício aeróbio, sobretudo se o fazia regularmente antes de engravidar. E, claro, não se esqueça dos exercícios de Kegel, para fortalecer a musculatura pélvica e vaginal. São fundamentais para prevenir problemas de incontinência urinária.

 

Evite

Mergulhar, qualquer exercício que implique movimentos bruscos ou que represente perigo de trauma abdominal, bem como fazer exercícios demasiado extenuantes.

Para além disso, a partir do quarto mês de gestação, deve excluir do seu plano de treino todos os exercícios que impliquem deitar-se de costas, pois essa posição compromete o adequado fluxo sanguíneo entre mãe e bebé.

Yoga is Putumayo’s first CD release featuring songs selected to accompany yoga practice and serve as a relaxing soundtrack for daily life. Rooted in ancient Hindu, Buddhist and Jain traditions, the practice of yoga has evolved over the past 5,000 years. Adopted by millions of people around the world, yoga provides a vehicle for greater health and spiritual awareness. Music has long had a close relationship with yoga, particularly in the Bhakti tradition, which incorporates musical chants into its practice.

With his extensive background as a yoga instructor and musician, Sean Johnson, founder of Wild Lotus Yoga studio in New Orleans, collaborated closely with Putumayo on this project. Combining songs used in his classes with Putumayo’s global research, Yoga creates a musical flow that works as well during yoga practice as at home for meditation or relaxation. Sean’s expansive liner notes, which include a glossary of yoga terms, will help people better understand the practice of yoga and its relationship to music.

Yoga features renowned musicians from around the world. British-born, South Indian artist Susheela Raman duets with Kenyan singer Ayub Ogada on the harmonious “O Rama.” Krishna Das, who is the best-known US performer of traditional Indian kirtan-style music, demonstrates call-and-response chanting on “Hanuman Baba (Dub Farm Remix).” Costa Rican group Amounsulu create a serene atmosphere by blending sitars and glass bottles on the song “El Bosque Eterno de los Niños (Children’s Eternal Rainforest).” On “Bolo Ram” celebrated western devotional musician Wah! sings a tranquil verse that is believed to bring bliss to all who chant it. Sean Johnson and the Wild Lotus Band are known for their beautiful, melodic chanting as displayed on “Om Hari Om/Sharanam Ganesha (Refuge).”

Yoga also features the collaborative world fusion group The Lucknow Project, US kirtan artist Gaura Vani And As Kindred Spirits, renowned producer/musician Ben Leinbach and percussionist Geoffrey Gordon, bhajan and kirtan singer Karnamrita Dasi and British producer Niraj Chag. Rounding out this eclectic collection are Swedish musician and teacher Yogini, Senegalese singer Ablaye Cissoko with German trumpeter Volker Goetze, husband and wife duo Shantala and Bhutanese monk Lama Gyurme with French pianist Jean-Philippe Rykiel.
