"very easy and suprisingly calming"
I'm currently pregnant with my 6th and have had quite bad lower bach ache in this pregnancy. I have been trying many different ways to ease it a little, such as hot water bottles and light exercise. This dvd managed to help me in so many ways. i knew my back was tense but didnt realsie how tense until i started this dvd. This dvd is so calmimg and was so relaxful just by taking the time to stick the dvd on.
I really enjoyed Sequence 1, the Hip and Groin Opening with Leg Lengthening and Strengthening. I really struggle to walk some days due to my back but this has realy helped to strengthem my back giving me some suport.
This dvd is suitable for all pregnant women as there are easy positions which is suitable for pregnant women wishing to try simple exercising whilst pregnant.
i am so pleased i was able to try this dvd and wish i could have had the opportunity when i had my 1st child many years ago as i'm sure i could have kept it up and maintained some level of fitness throughout subsequent pregnancies.

"Very relaxing"
I'm currently 37+5 weeks pregnant with my second. I have had quite bad SPD in this pregnancy and have been trying many different ways to ease it a little. This dvd proved to help in so many ways.
I never realised how tense I have been lately, the whole layout of this dvd is so calm I started relaxing even just watching the exercises.
I particularly liked Sequence 1, which was Hip and Groin Opening with Leg Lengthening and Strengthening. I find it difficult at this stage to move around. I get a lot of pain in the pelvic area but going through the sequence helped me a lot.
I also think the dvd is suitable for all pregnant women regardless of capability. There are easier positions as well as positions which may be slightly more difficult for others.
All in all, i'm very happy with this, I think it has helped me with a lot of aches and it has also prepared me for labour and the positions I could use.

"Surprisingly easy"
I am currently 28 weeks pregnant with my 3rd girl and wanted to try some exercises which are safe to do in pregnancy which might help with my sciatica and backache, so decided to give "Bliss from within" a go. I had never tried yoga before as I simply dont have the time, but thought i'd make a bit of time for myself. I was a bit sceptical that i wouldnt be able to do many of the poses- not being the most agile of people, but was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was. It has 3 ladies at different stages of pregnancy doing exercises to suit them best, so I could copy the lady closest to my stage which was good. There was one or 2 exercises which i found a bit difficult due to my backache, but im sure if i keep trying i will get better at it. The breathing techniques they showed have actually helped me with my breathlessness and dizzyness also.
The extra's on the DVD were also helpful in that they showed good labouring positions and massaging techniques for my partner to try out, and pelvic floor exercises which i have tried before but this explained it a lot better than my pregnancy book.
The instructor "Zoe" seemed genuine and didnt go changing positions too quickly. There are a few "props" needed but there is a bit explaining what household items you can use instead.
All in all I'd say a great purchase for expectant mothers wanting a bit of "me time" to relax and get prepared for the birth (if thats possible lol)
