DVD Reviews of Bend, Breathe, and Conceive: Fertility Yoga with Anna Davis, Ph.D., RYT
DVD Review: safe, effective, gentle
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been practicing yoga for over 12 years at the time of this writing, and I am also an experienced, certified yoga instructor, as well as a prenatal massage therapist. I feel that I can vouch for the yoga as taught in this video-- it is the real deal-- Anna Davis knows what she is doing. I really enjoy this video a lot. I find it calming, relaxing, and invigorating in a gentle way. Perhaps most importantly of all, this video is safe for people wherever they might be in their cycle, or in their TTC process (even if using Assisted Reproductive Therapy of some kind). I feel confident recommending it to anyone who is TTC, whether they are taking a completely holistic approach, or using a combination of eastern and western medicine.
The downsides of the video are:
1.) It doesn't give explanations for why she chose the postures that are included. An experienced yogi will be able to figure this out intuitively, but it isn't spelled out for you. (e.g. She doesn't explain why you might want to do postures targeting your hips, low back, and groin area if you are TTC.) There are plenty of online resources for exploring this further. My favourite is Fully Fertile: A 12-Week Holistic Plan for Optimal Fertility, another outstanding resource for holistic fertility.
2.) The pace is actually a bit quick for my taste. I'm not sure why she didn't stretch this out into a 90-minute practice; I prefer more time in some of the postures. I was impressed that she did give plenty of time for the relaxation sequence at the end. A lot of teachers skimp on final savasana, which is the most important posture of the practice. Again, Davis really gets it. Overall a very good investment.
