Description:
Sylvia Klein Olkin is a long-time yoga instructor who developed the Positive Pregnancy Fitness (PPF) program, a prenatal health care program that is now taught in more than 30 states. Positive Pregnancy Fitness presents a gentle and sensible approach to exercise that incorporates yoga with nutrition and stress management. The exercises--described clearly and illustrated with crisp black-and-white drawings--are well adapted for pregnant bodies. The PPF program includes meditation, physical stretches, breathing, herbs, visualization, relaxation exercises, and massage and pressure points. Olkin's approach is to treat the entire woman, not just the pregnant parts of her. Positive Pregnancy Fitness can be used as a home accompaniment to PPF classes, for self-teaching, or as a resource book for teachers of childbirth and prenatal exercise. It provides healthful tools that pregnant women can use for fitness and overall health far past pregnancy.
