Yoga Sadhana for Mothers: Shared experiences of Ashtanga yoga, pregnancy, birth and motherhood Review: I actually pre-ordered it because Sharath Jois recommended it in his 2014 NYC workshop with Eddie Stern - As a yoga student, this book is a must. I actually pre-ordered it because Sharath Jois recommended it in his 2014 NYC workshop with Eddie Stern. I had been practicing Ashtanga Mysore style for a little less than a year when I read this book. It is inspirational, informative, and nonjudgmental. In the book introduction, Desai and Wise mention that their intention was "to create something that shows that when it comes to pregnancy, childbirth, and mothering there is no right or wrong way to do things. For this reason there are no definitive answers here [in the book], only information, tips, suggestions, examples, and most importantly, the experience of others to draw from." Well, I think they did excellent. The book is helpful not only for expecting (or current) mothers. It actually has good information for women in general. For example, it has good insight on the relationship between the bandhas and menstruation, and other women's topics such as menopause, infertility, amenorrhea, etc. In a nutshell, I expect this book to be a reference for years to come as I continue my practice and (maybe) become a mother. Review: Helpful guidance for yogi mothers to be - I’m only halfway through this gem of a book, but I like it so much that I couldn’t wait to give it the five stars it deserves. It’s very helpful to read birth and motherhood stories of mothers from different walks of life who share the same passion as me for yoga (and, more specifically, leaning towards Ashtanga and not the more modern types). The only downside (for me at least) is that the book uses Hindi words for the poses and concepts, and I’m not 100% Hindi yoga-fluent. But besides that, a highly recommended guide! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,314,191 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #1,376 in Pregnancy & Childbirth (Books) #1,501 in Yoga (Books) #2,763 in General Women's Health | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (108) | | Dimensions | 6.12 x 1.06 x 8.92 inches | | Edition | Illustrated | | ISBN-10 | 1906756309 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1906756307 | | Item Weight | 2.31 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 344 pages | | Publication date | September 1, 2014 | | Publisher | Pinter & Martin | ## Images ![Yoga Sadhana for Mothers: Shared experiences of Ashtanga yoga, pregnancy, birth and motherhood - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91RovDaXOrL.jpg) ![Yoga Sadhana for Mothers: Shared experiences of Ashtanga yoga, pregnancy, birth and motherhood - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81L3GdqKn8L.jpg) ![Yoga Sadhana for Mothers: Shared experiences of Ashtanga yoga, pregnancy, birth and motherhood - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31HlQdqvoQL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I actually pre-ordered it because Sharath Jois recommended it in his 2014 NYC workshop with Eddie Stern *by R***Z on January 8, 2015* As a yoga student, this book is a must.

It is a powerful, honest and incredibly informative collection of experiences written by women about their relationships with their yoga practice throughout their lives, through all the physical and emotional changes that accompany motherhood and beyond. It reinforces the lesson that we must always practice internally, listen to our bodies and be compassionate with ourselves above all, as our physical practice can continually change around us. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/12499386-yoga-sadhana-for-mothers-shared-experiences-of-ashtanga-yoga-pregnancy](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/12499386-yoga-sadhana-for-mothers-shared-experiences-of-ashtanga-yoga-pregnancy) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-10*
