Who is The PranaMama?

According to Yoga philosophy, Prana is defined as the breath, vitality, or life-force energy.  Prana enters the body through the air we breathe, the food we eat and the environment in which we live.

For mothers, this energy is essential.    Raising children and managing a household is a wonderful responsibility, but it can be stressful and exhausting to meet everyone else’s needs day in and day out.  Most of the time, a mother puts her own well-being on the back burner (right behind her family’s homemade dinner!).

The PranaMama is here to help.  The best moms are those who take care of themselves, physically, emotionally and spiritually.  Visit this site for information and inspiration anytime you need a reminder of how best to do so.  As a resource, we provide links to various online articles on health, fitness, yoga, nutrition and parenting.  And as a friend, The PranaMama speaks her mind, happy to share stories and laughter, but not afraid to admit parenting is not all fun and games.

At the start of every yoga practice, one must concentrate on the breath.  By slowing the breath and focusing on filling your body with this life-force energy, all worries, obsessions, distractions, and criticisms leave your body.   Where you go from there, is anyone’s guess.

Breathe and be well!
