Mums Can Get Their Mojo Back In 2012 With The MuTu® System

Mums who want to get stronger, fitter, leaner and more confident in 2012, forever, need look no further than the MuTu® System (http://mutusystem.com/mutu-system.html).

The MuTu® System, has been created by Wendy Powell, a mother of two who has been there & done it, and is also an experienced, highly qualified pre & post natal fitness professional. Her unique, proven, step by step 12 week programme and video series of restorative exercises, effective workouts, yoga and motivational techniques is ideal for women who want to rediscover their waistline AND body confidence, however long ago they had their baby.

Five interconnecting elements have been woven together to put a mother's body back where she wants it. MuTu Core is the *find your waist & flatten your tummy* bit, MuTu Breathe, the *tone your pelvic floor & chill out* bit and MuTu New Mum / MuTu Intensive is the *time to get sweaty & shape your body* bit. MuTu Posture is the *stand tall & find your mojo* bit and MuTu Food is the *eat right with no hang ups* bit.

Wendy Powell, said, "There's a huge amount of advice out there for brand new mums but the physical effects of pregnancy, childbirth and mothering - weak pelvic floor, saggy tummy, weak core muscles, back ache - can go on for years, and this is what I tackle. The MuTu® System really 'GETS' the practicalities, hormones, emotions and pressures mums face. By following the programme you can stop being confused by conflicting advice and get your body - and mind - back in good working order and shape, however long ago you gave birth".

She added, "The programme works because it gives women the tools, information and guidance they need to change habits and take responsibility for their bodies once again. The holistic approach is about working out, eating well and increasing self esteem so you feel sexy, capable, strong and healthy in a world full of quick fixes and unrealistic expectations that just don't work".

"Thank you for MuTu - I have been totally motivated & have stuck to a programme for the first time ever! - Wendy, you have achieved the impossible!" Emi, mum of 2

Late babies are a good thing says author and 'late' mother

Author Claudia Spahr looks at midlife parenting and later pregnancy and speaks to many health experts in the field of pregnancy and health. She myth busts some of the conceptions that older pregnancy for women is harder and more complex and maintains that later life pregnancy has huge advantages for both baby and mother.

Right Time Baby The Complete Guide to Later Motherhood
(Hay House, £12.99)

By Claudia Spahr

Almost a quarter of all women in the UK are having babies after 35 and the conception rate for women over forty has doubled in the past ten years. New research shows later mothers are more secure emotionally and financially than younger mothers. They’re more proactive about their health during pregnancy. Numerous studies also show that older mothers live longer.

Women starting a family in their 30s or 40s might lead a healthier life-style; they are often more highly educated and better off financially. They may understand the needs of their bodies, and look after themselves better in terms of exercise and nutrition.

Mature women can have more positive perceptions of their bodies, and more readily tolerate the symptoms of pregnancy. At this age too, women often have more autonomy - independence and confidence to know what they want, and enhanced people skills to get it.

This comprehensive guide is the first of its kind. Right Time Baby dispels many of the outdated myths concerning older motherhood and gives useful advice for increased fertility and a healthy baby. Journalist and author Claudia Spahr wrote the book she would have wanted to read when she became a mother at 40.

Written in an entertaining, accessible manner and filled with practical tips, Right Time Baby reveals secrets for optimising health, prolonging fertility and having the best possible pregnancy at any age.

Right Time Baby has been hailed by some as the new pregnancy and childbirth bible because it’s the first guide that brings together new frontiers such as cell biology, foetal origins and mind-body healing. Packed full of essential tips from top medical experts, scientists and world authorities, including Dr Marilyn Glenville and Dr Michel Odent this book is a complete guide for the women who’s lived a full life before breeding.
