Wish I Could Curse You (9)

Series Master list

"Kagome!" a man with brown hair yells, waving his hand high in the sky. Satoru frowns. Who the hell is this guy? And why is he so damn happy to see Kagome?

"Oh no," Kagome says, planting her hands on her thighs. The dark yoga pants are nearly enough to distract Satoru from what she just said.

Oh no, as in she doesn't want to be bothered? Or oh no, as in they need to knock this guy out?

"Is he a problem?" Suguru asks. The murderous intent ebbs and flows off Suguru in waves, but Kagome either does not notice the change in Suguru or she's used to that level of intensity from him.

"No," Kagome sighs. "Akitoki Hojo is just annoying."

"Hojo?" Suguru and Satoru say. Suguru shoots him a wondering look, but Satoru ignores him.

Kagome flashes them a smile before putting on a fake one as Hojo approaches. "Hi, Hojo!" she chirps. "How's your wife?"

Satoru's shoulders drop. He exhales. Good, this guy has a wife. Even so, why is he so damn happy to see Kagome?

"She is doing well. I see you are not traveling with your husband, though." Hojo shifts his bag to his other arm and throws it over his shoulder. There's a white monkey on his head that looks around the area as though it is keeping watch.

The silence is deafening. Husband? Kagome doesn't seem like the type. Suguru cracks his knuckles.

Well... if she has one, Suguru will probably kill him too.

"I don't have a husband."

"Oh? You and InuYasha never..."

"Nope, InuYasha and I are just friends. He's married now." Kagome shrugs and resumes walking. Hojo walks next to her, ignoring Satoru and Suguru. "Actually, his kid should have been born by now, since Hana was in labor when we set out."

"So, you're single then?"

"Why are you asking her that?" Suguru intones.

He would like to know that too and why he thought Kagome and InuYasha were a couple. How much is she not telling them? A wave of guilt washes over him. It's not like he's sat down and given her his life story.

Hojo looks back at them and blinks. "Well...my house is growing, and I have enough to support two wives."

Crack.

A branch falls. Birds flap their wings, desperate to get away. A squirrel runs past. The monkey lets out a squeal and then strikes a pose on top of Hojo's head as if it wasn't frightened.

Hojo startles and lets out a laugh. "That was weird."

"Hojo, wouldn't that get confusing? You're already married to a Kagome." Kagome snorts, not at all taking this seriously.

Why isn't she taking this seriously? This Hojo just proclaimed that he wants to marry her and she's joking?

There is nothing funny about this situation.

"She can always change her name again. It is not a problem."

Satoru holds out an arm in front of Suguru. "What do you mean again?"

"Well, when I thought Kagome was with InuYasha, I gave up all hope. So, my wife begged me to marry her, and I conceded so long as she changed her name to Kagome." Hojo sighs. "Her birth name was truly terrible, and she didn't mind being Kagome for me."

"I'm gonna..." Suguru trails off, faltering under Kagome's gaze. "Pray that your wife finds someone that appreciates her."

Hojo frowns. "She is appreciated. I don't beat her or step outside the marriage." He wrinkles his nose. "Courting Kagome doesn't count. My wife knows, and she's prepared to play her role as second." He trips, but catches himself.

"Okay." Kagome claps. "Hojo, it was nice running into you, but we're busy. And I'm not interested."

"Oh. Oh. I see. You are with them, then?"

"Yes."

The murderous intent fades and Suguru looks lighter than he has in a while. Satoru gnaws on the inside of his cheek. Why is he thinking about killing this guy? He places a hand over his heart.

Yep, still working.

"Well... very well. I will not keep you." Hojo's shoulders droop as he takes off into the forest.

Good riddance.

"That was Hojo-kun's ancestor," Kagome says after Hojo's is gone from view. "That's what his mother was talking about that night."

"What night?" Suguru questions.

"The night he died. Hojo's mother wanted it to be known that they had a Kagome in their family history," Satoru says. He runs his tongue along his teeth. So, this really is the past. And her dead ex was named after that guy?

"Yeah, the first time Hojo showed me his family history, it gave me a scare." She rubs the back of her head. "I was like 15 then and marriage was not on my radar." A flash of sadness crosses her face and if he were less of a man, he would have missed it.

Does she want to get married?

Satoru cracks his neck and looks over in the direction Hojo walked off to. He can't look at Suguru right now.

"HELP!"

Satoru moves to Kagome's side, but she moves right past him, in the direction of trouble. He slaps his forehead. Why is she running off without them?

Wait...is he okay with letting this Hojo die?

"Satoru, what are you doing?" Suguru looks back at him as he runs after Kagome.

That's a good question. Why is he hesitating to save someone?

He runs ahead, moving in front of Kagome, who seems determined to put herself in harm's way. Who cares if this Hojo guy dies?

Satoru halts at the sight of the demon. Its skin is prickled with quills as if it wants to be a porcupine. It holds Hojo up with one hand, dangling the guy upside down. The items in Hojo's bag lie on the ground, scattered by the demon's hoofed feet. Okay, maybe not quite a porcupine, but close enough.

The white monkey jumps up and down on the ground, shaking its fists at the demon.

He slides his pack off and holds out an arm to stop Kagome from charging in.

"HELP ME!"

"Hold on Hojo!" Kagome yells out. Satoru grits his teeth. His feet won't move. Why is he hesitating? Suguru steps forward and sets his bag down. He glances at Satoru, but Satoru doesn't have the words to verbalize this turbulence going on in his psyche.

That man wants to make Kagome his wife. His second wife. No, he wants to push his current wife to the side and have Kagome. Going so far as to have his wife change her name to Kagome.

Satoru clenches a fist. He can't will his legs to help Suguru save the guy.

"Apologies, Kagome," Suguru says, summoning a curse. "But you want this mon—monk saved?"

"AHAHAHA" The demon laughs. It pats its big round belly. The sound of its palm hitting the armor sounds like someone just learning to play the drums. "I'll eat you and then I'll take that woman for myself."

"It's always the big ones," Kagome mutters.

Satoru rears back. Is this her normal? She is far too nonchalant about that demon wanting to take her.

"Sesshomaru would have your head!" Kagome yells out, pointing a finger at the demon. "Now put Hojo down!"

"Who the fuck is Sesshomaru?"

"You're asking me that now?"

"Is he a demon, too?"

"Uh... yeah. But does that matter right now?"

No. It shouldn't matter. But, yes, it does matter right now because who the fuck is Sesshomaru and why would he care what happens to Kagome? Satoru clucks his tongue and turns his attention back to the demon, who, despite Kagome's warning, doesn't seem to care too much about what this Sesshomaru might do.

Suguru pulls out playful cloud and dashes behind the demon. He hits him in the leg right as his curse spirit attacks the demon. Hojo wails as the demon throws him into the air, using him as a makeshift weapon to keep the curse back.

"Come on Suguru! Stop messing around. We still got a lot of ground to cover," he calls out, cupping his hands around his mouth. Suguru shoots him a dirty look.

"Should we really let him handle the demon by himself?" Kagome reaches for an arrow, but Satoru holds up a hand.

"He's never fought a demon before. I've never fought one before. Let him have his fun."

"You just told him to hurry it up."

"Well, that's because he's trying to show off." And he's eager to get away from this Hojo guy.

The demon screams right as it topples over. The arm holding Hojo is cut off. Suguru catches Hojo before he hits the ground and Satoru can practically taste the disgust in the air. He claps, smiling wider, when Suguru promptly drops Hojo on the ground. The curse spirit fades away as Suguru calls it back, but the demon's body remains.

Huh, it's still alive. Barely.

Suguru holds out a hand, and the demon digs its claws into the ground. Blood pours from where its other arm used to be. Its tongue hangs off to the side, salivating as it screams. The screams die down as Suguru creates a ball. He walks back over to them, leaving Hojo on the ground.

"Ya gotta eat it?" Satoru crosses his arms. Can he eat it? Not like there is a surplus of demons wandering around Tokyo.

Suguru looks down at the yellow ball and shrugs. He opens his mouth and swallows the ball whole.

"You consume them?" Kagome asks after a moment.

Satoru gnaws on his tongue. Kagome said she and Suguru exorcise curses together all the time. Has he never shown her how he obtains his curses?

Suguru coughs and looks away. "Yes, that's how I tame them."

Kagome frowns. "Every single one?"

"Yes." Suguru clenches his fists, though he keeps his face blank. Not that it matters to Satoru. He can see the fear of rejection in Suguru's eyes.

"Okay," Kagome says, nodding. "I should check on Hojo." She walks over to Hojo, who lets out the biggest cry.

Satoru glances at Suguru and shrugs. He can't tell what Kagome is thinking. Satoru runs his tongue along his teeth. "Suguru, wait."

"What?"

"If..." he lowers his voice. "If you did it, then you need to tell her before you get in too deep."

Suguru doesn't flinch. "Doesn't matter if I did what you think I did or not. I'm not letting either of you go now." Suguru smiles, and it's one he hasn't seen in years. "That monkey is getting into Kagome's bag."

"Oi! Kagome won't like that," Satoru huffs.

"No... the actual monkey. See." Suguru points and sure enough, the white monkey is getting into Kagome's stuff while she fusses over Hojo.

Satoru grimaces. Why is she fussing over that man? "Alright. But I'm serious. If you did it, you need to tell her before she falls more in love with you."

"Kagome doesn't love me."

"And here I thought you were the perceptive one." Satoru scratches the back of his head and grabs their bags off the ground. "Let's go before that monkey takes all our food, too." He frowns as Hojo stands, dusting off his pants.

Kagome doesn't want the guy, so why is he so irritated? She even said she was with him and Suguru.

Still... he wants this guy gone and on his merry way.

Hojo rubs the back of his head, bowing it slightly. "Is it possible for me to travel with you for the day? That was very traumatic and I'm afraid my legs are still shaken up." The white monkey jumps up on Hojo's shoulder and points a finger at Suguru, who shrugs and puts the items back in the bag.

Satoru rolls his eyes as he picks up Kagome's oversized yellow bag and gives her his much lighter one to carry. "You live in a place where demons are common. How can you not protect yourself?" he deadpans. This man has no control over the cursed energy he has. He has no spiritual powers like Kagome, and yet he can see the demons, so why the hell is he so weak?

Suguru's eyes widen. Satoru rolls his eyes again. It's common sense.

Kagome holds out her hands and places one on Satoru's chest. "I mean you can, but we're going to the kitsune school and—"

"Oh no, last time I went there, they gave me something terrible to drink and I could not stop my bowels from moving." Hojo holds his stomach and grimaces. "I'm positive it was Master Shippo who tricked me. He was the one that gave me the tea after all."

"Sounds like something my kid would do." Kagome moves her hand, but Satoru grabs it and flashes her smile. She shakes her head. "At any rate... why are you calling him Master Shippo?"

Hojo's face flushes red, and he drops to his knees, prostrating.

"Uh, Hojo, if you're talking, I can't hear you."

"Sorry," Hojo says, lifting his head. "It was a long time ago that Master Shippo demanded I refer to him as such. I did, after all, do something terrible against you."

Satoru clenches his teeth. His muscles ripple. What kind of harm?

Kagome points to herself with her free hand. "Me? You haven't done anything to me other than be annoying."

"It was the night before when we ran into Kaguya. I saw..." He sucks in a breath. The white monkey pats his face. "I saw you in the hot springs and I was mesmerized by how the water ran down—"

Boom!

"Sorry, that one was me," Satoru says cheekily. "You were saying?"

"I... Master Shippo found out and blackmailed me. I could not tell you the truth all these years."

Kagome sighs. "Honestly. Well, at least you apologized. It's more than Miroku has ever done."

"Who the hell is Miroku?" Satoru exclaims.

"Sango's husband. The lecherous monk I was telling you guys about. I mean, he's not so much a lech these days, but back then, yeah." Kagome leans into him. "Hojo is okay now, and he doesn't want to travel with us, so can we go? If we push it, we should make it to the school tomorrow before nightfall."

"Thank you for saving me!" Hojo yells, prostrating once more to Suguru, who plasters that fake smile on his face. Suguru's fingers twitch and for once, Satoru gets it.

It's not the right thing to do, but he wouldn't be all that upset if something ate Hojo on his way back to his wife.

"I'm worried about Suguru," Kagome says, setting the pot over the campfire to boil.

Satoru clucks his tongue. "You think he'll come back empty-handed?"

"I don't mean about his hunting skills. I mean him." She scrunches her nose. "Something's bothering him. Do you think it's too much? Should we pull back?"

"I think you pulling back would be the worst thing to happen to him." Satoru flexes his fingers. He has suspicions that Suguru killed Kagome's family, but Suguru isn't admitting to it. "Besides, you can't put it on a guy and take it away. Do you know how magical your pussy is?"

Kagome's mouth drops. Her cheeks flush. "Oh whatever," she mutters.

Satoru grins and then stops when Kagome turns away. Something is wrong with Suguru. Kagome pulling back now could cause Suguru to break. He's tethering the edge like he did before he ultimately broke and left Satoru alone.

"If ya are so worried, I know a way you could cheer him up."

"Do my clothes have to come off for this?"

"Nah, he could always slide your panties to the side."

Kagome snorts. "Sounds like you want to do that." She pulls out some noodles from her yellow bag and puts it in the boiling water.

"I always wanna do you," he confesses. "But I also like just being around you."

Kagome pauses and looks at him, really looks at him as though she only sees him as Satoru, the man. His heart pangs. She's never seen him as the strongest.

He's not sure how to feel about that.

The bushes rustle and Suguru walks into camp with three rabbits.

"Am I interrupting?"

Kagome smiles at Suguru. "The first night, yeah," she teases.

"Yeah, way to cockblock, Suguru."

Suguru throws the headless rabbits at him in succession. "You skin them."

Satoru pouts. "Fine." He guesses he can do it tonight since Kagome showed them how to do it the other night. Something about seeing her being so damn proficient with hunting is far more enticing than it ought to be.

"Come here," Kagome says to Suguru. She pats her lap. Suguru walks over with no objections. Which, why would he? He gave the rabbits to Satoru to skin.

"Am I in trouble?" Suguru jokes.

"No. I always wondered why your energy was so dark. It's darker than Satoru's, but it's because you take those things in." She brushes her hand over his forehead and over his hair. "If it hurts, tell me to stop."

She touches Suguru as though they have been lovers for years.

Sweetly.

Satoru glances down at the rabbits and sighs. He wants to be basking in Kagome's love, too.

But.

He glances at Suguru, with his head in Kagome's lap, and the peace on his face. Satoru picks up the knife. This is fine too. If the servants and the Gojo elders could see him now, they'd faint with the shock of him doing something so mundane in their eyes. Skinning rabbits, so they have meat for dinner. Strangely, he doesn't mind it. Being here is peaceful.

"What's Shippo like?" Satoru asks, needing to fill the silence.

Kagome pauses from running her fingers through Suguru's hair. "A trickster. Like all fox demons. Shippo-chan likes to play pranks. Sometimes it might be having someone go for a ride on his spinner, or maybe he's dropping a bunch of fox statues on you because you fell into the hole he covered up." She runs her fingers through Suguru's hair once more and leans over slightly to check on the noodles. "Shippo-chan has red hair, but I guess it's more auburn. And the biggest green eyes. He has a little puffy fox tail and paws for feet."

Satoru swallows as an image of Kagome caring for this fox takes root in his mind. There must be something in the air because he's losing his mind.

"At the end of the day, he's just a kid. Or kit. Whatever you want to call him. Shippo is young and as much as he pretends to be big and strong, he's still just a child." Kagome presses her lips together. "And he's far too interested in girls. I think Miroku may have influenced him too much."

Miroku? Right, that perverted monk.

"Suguru, how are you doing?"

"... Good," Suguru breathes. "More than good."

Satoru pouts. Is she using her energy on him? That's not fair. He hasn't felt the warm caress of her powers in far too long. Satoru stands and takes the container full of rabbit meat over to the fire. He dumps some cuts into the pot and then skews the rest for jerky.

"Stop being such a baby, Satoru." Suguru sits up and stretches. He kisses Kagome on the cheek.

"I'm not being a baby," he scoffs.

Suguru rolls his eyes and walks over to his bag, searching for something. "You are the biggest one here."

Satoru ignores him and instead watches, a little transfixed, as Kagome starts her night routine.

"Kagome," Satoru calls, "Can you come do the splits on it?"

Kagome pauses. Her body leaned to the right as she stretches. "I don't know." She sighs as she stretches to the left. "I don't wanna bewitch you any further."

"That's okay. I'd gladly go under your spell."

She snorts.

He crawls forward on his hands and knees, a sight that would have anyone other than Suguru concerned. He should have known since the night they met that Kagome was gonna make him lose his mind. Lose his reasoning. Satoru was doing so great and now look at him. Glady crawling on the dirt just to get closer to her.

Kagome's brows furrow together as she watches him.

"What are you doing?" She leans forward until her hands and upper body completely touch the ground.

He could watch her stretch for days.

"Coming to you." He sits off to the side of her and grabs her foot. His thumb presses into the sole, massaging her. "You know one of us could carry you, so you don't have to walk as much."

"I'm used to walking all over Japan." Kagome props her head up with her palm. Besides, we tried that and Suguru almost walked into a tree.

"Because," Suguru stresses, filling each of their bowls with stew. "Someone was kissing on my neck telling me how badly they wanted to get fucked later."

"Kagome, is that true?" Satoru sighs with a smile dancing across his face. He looks at Kagome with expectation.

"... I don't recall." She sits up and takes the bowl from Suguru. "Anyway, we should make it to the school by midday as long as nothing goes wrong." Kagome scrunches her nose and knocks a fist on the ground.

"That's not wood," Satoru quips.

"Come here and I'll knock on yours."

"Oho?" He grins, gripping his bowl tighter.

"Satoru, sit down and eat your food," Suguru says.

"What are you, my dad?"

"I can be. Sit."

Satoru's eyebrows rise. He blinks. He tries to formulate a comeback, but he's got nothing. What the fuck, Suguru? He stuffs his mouth and glares at Suguru as he eats.

"Do you two need privacy?" Kagome asks.

"For what?"

"I don't know, to talk it out?"

"We're fine. Satoru is just a brat," Suguru says, taking their bowls and silverware. "He must be on his best behavior when he's with you."

"Don't like how ya phrased that. You trying to start something?"

"It was a compliment."

Kagome stands and grabs her bag. "I'm taking a bath."

"Without me?" Satoru and Suguru ask. Satoru sticks his tongue out.

"Well, I don't want company if you guys are gonna bicker the whole time."

"We, won't. Satoru will be quiet."

"I can keep Suguru's mouth busy."

"The hell does that mean?" Suguru rounds on him.

"You know what it means. Besides, Kagome wants to see it."

"I never said that," Kagome says with a sigh. She taps a finger to her lips. "But I wouldn't mind seeing it either."

"Shut up, Satoru," Suguru grumbles, trailing behind Kagome.

Satoru blows out a breath. He was just saying shit... but now he can't get the image out of his mind. "Can you put another barrier?"

"Of course," Kagome quips, shimmying out of her clothes. The oxygen rushes out of his body and he's dizzy with need. He knows this is supposed to be a rescue mission in a sense and Kagome barely wants to stop for lunch during the day, but he can't help but long for when the night falls and Kagome allows herself to relax.

She glances over at them and quirks a brow.

Oh right, she wanted a show. Satoru grins as he tosses his shirt off and kicks off the rest of his clothes. He crooks a finger at Suguru as he walks into the hot spring. That boulder should work.

"I didn't agree to this," Suguru mutters, setting the bowls down by the edge. Suguru complains, but he slides out of his monk clothes anyway, and follows Satoru into the spring.

"Suguru!" Satoru gasps, covering his chest with one arm, while spreading his legs. "Don't look at me so indecently." He bats his eyelashes.

"Satoru, shut the fuck up before I drown you." Suguru shakes his head and places his hands on Satoru's thighs. "Not one more peep." Suguru opens his mouth and swallows as much of him as he can, but Satoru isn't an easy man to fit.

"Too much of a mouthful for ya?" He grins down at Suguru, who lifts a hand and flips him off. Satoru barks out a laugh.

"Do you two ever stop bickering?"

Suguru peers up at him through his dark eyelashes. Satoru swallows. Something about seeing Suguru with his cock in his mouth is giving him whiplash. His head is light. His limbs feel boneless. He glances over at Kagome and bites his lip, silently begging her to come over. But she shakes her head and laughs.

What a tease.

"Ugh, Suguru, you can't suck a dick for shit," Satoru complains, threading his fingers through Suguru's hair. The boulder is cool, but the steam from the hot spring keeps him warm.

"I can stop."

"Please do," he quips. "Kagome-chan, I'm begging ya." Kami, he needs to feel Kagome. Going out of his mind here and she doesn't care.

"I'm not done watching," is all she says, but her ass is in the air as she digs through that awful yellow bag of hers and his mouth salivates.

He just needs her on his tongue.

"Ugh, fine. Suguru, you gotta relax that jaw."

Suguru glares up at him with his hand wrapped around his cock. "Keep it up and might just bite."

"You wouldn't... shit," he breathes.

"Don't bust in my face."

"Please, as if I would bless you with my come. The only one I'm coming in is Kagome."

"Not if you come early."

"Okay, no one is coming in me until I find my birth control. I swear I had it last night." Kagome sighs and crosses her arms, but all it does is push her tits together and Satoru is hanging by a thread.

"Sug—ah!"

Fucking bastard.

"Was it the monkey?" he asks, hissing softly as Suguru sucks harder.

"I don't know. Did he get in the bag?"

Suguru pulls back. "I'm sorry. I thought he grabbed some candy."

Satoru presses his lips into a flat line. The fuck he did. Suguru is lying through his teeth.

"That's fine... I don't want to waste time backtracking." She walks over and joins them in the hot spring. "But I'm not doing anything until we get back home then."

Satoru freezes.

Suguru's grip on him loosens.

"Satoru," Suguru says, but it comes out as a question and Satoru wants to throttle him. They are in this mess because he let the stupid monkey take Kagome's pills.

"I'll go after you finish the damn job," he growls out, gripping Suguru's hair.

"Go where?" Kagome ducks her head under the water and the sight alone does him in.

"I told you not to—"

"Shush," Satoru says, holding Suguru's head. "I'm gonna go get your pills back from the monkey. I know what Hojo's energy feels like. I'll be back."

He lets Suguru's head go and slides off the boulder.

Ugh, he just wanted to relax with Kagome and now he has to clean up Suguru's messes.

What a pain.

***

A/N: I saw that some of you are also feeling a bit under the weather, so I'm praying for a speedy recovery! Get some rest this weekend and drink plenty of water. Maybe binge some anime while you lie in bed. Whatever you do, just make sure to take care of yourselves!

Sukuna and Uraume are not 'alive' during this time, but Tengen and Kenjaku are. Not gonna give it all away, but Kenjaku is a problem.

"What schemes can Suguru cook up?" - He's not really scheming right now so much as he is enjoying having Kagome and his best friend back...And I guess he didn't really stop the monkey from taking the birth control.

"Would they pass the orange peel test?" - Yes, both of them. Suguru took it up the ass to be with Kagome, he'll peel an orange. Satoru dropped everything for an unknown amount of time to be with her.

"Satoru and Kagome are endgame?" - Yeah...I said that back in like chapter one or two, but uh Suguru's defense team works harder. It's looking like a happy ending for Suguru too. It won't be an easy journey, but we'll get there.

I didn't know Suguru's favorite food was soba. They'll have to all have dinner together when they get back to their time.

"Will we see the Gojo clan?" - I haven't decided yet if we will. But we'll see Kenjaku.

Next update will probably be A Thousand Days even though I just updated it, but I couldn't stop writing the club scene lol.

Here's a sneak peek:

Satoru leans back. "Have you…" he pauses. "Have you ever had an orgasm?"

Kagome blinks.

Satoru stares.

He wets his lips. "Do you want one?"

Kagome wrinkles her nose. "Sleeping with coworkers leads to trouble."

"I'm the least problematic coworker you have."

About two weeks ago, I threw my ass out by climbing a step ladder to pull down a very lightweight box of uninflated mylar balloons.

Now, this happened because, for the previous three weeks, I was doing hard physical labor that my body was not prepared for and quickly got run down about. So that, by the time of the morning of my step ladder incident, my hips just said, "Nah. I'm done."

So what I had to do to stretch out the taunt muscles and help relieve pain was...yoga. Basically.

And one pose was a back bend thing where you lay on your stomach and grab your ankles and make a nice circle with your body. That you hold for a few seconds. And repeat like three times.

I discovered that day that I could not easily grab a second ankle. Grabbed the first one no problem but the second took a minute of cackling and wiggling to get.

It got easier the more I did it but like...

I'm 33. The elasticity you have in your 20s starts to go away faster than you think it will.

Stretch.

How can I practice Garbha Sanskar at home?

Pregnancy is a time of transformation, not just for your body but also for your mind and soul. Many believe that a baby’s emotional, mental, and spiritual development begins in the womb. This is the foundation of Garbha Sanskar, an ancient practice that helps create a positive and nurturing environment for both the mother and the baby.

The good news is that you don’t need to visit a special center to follow this practice—you can easily practice Garbha Sanskar at home with simple yet effective techniques. Let’s explore how you can incorporate Garbha Sanskar services into your daily routine and enhance your baby’s development from the womb.

What is Garbha Sanskar?

Garbha Sanskar comes from Sanskrit, where "Garbha" means womb and "Sanskar" means values or education. It refers to the process of nurturing the baby’s physical, emotional, intellectual, and spiritual growth while still in the womb.

Ancient texts and modern science suggest that a baby absorbs experiences from the mother. By practicing positive habits, listening to soothing music, engaging in meditation, and maintaining a stress-free lifestyle, a mother can help shape the baby’s personality, intelligence, and emotional well-being.

How to practice Garbha Sanskar at home

1. Listen to soothing music and mantras

Music has a profound impact on the baby’s brain. Studies show that a baby in the womb can recognize sounds and react to them. Listening to soft instrumental music, classical tunes, or mantras can create a calm and positive environment.

What you can do:

Play Garbha Sanskar music, including Vedic chants and flute melodies.

Listen to Om chanting and Gayatri Mantra to promote relaxation.

Avoid loud, stressful, or negative sounds.

2. Practice pregnancy yoga and meditation

Yoga is a great way to stay physically active and mentally calm during pregnancy. Prenatal yoga improves flexibility, reduces stress, and strengthens the body for labor. If you can’t attend in-person classes, you can join pregnancy yoga classes online, which offer guided sessions tailored for expecting mothers.

How yoga helps in Garbha Sanskar:

Enhances blood circulation and oxygen supply to the baby.

Reduces stress, anxiety, and mood swings.

Strengthens the body, preparing it for a smooth delivery.

What you can do:

Practice gentle prenatal yoga poses like Cat-Cow, Butterfly, and Deep Breathing exercises.

Enroll in pregnancy yoga classes online for structured and safe guidance.

Meditate for 10-15 minutes daily to maintain emotional balance.

3. Read positive and spiritual books

Reading uplifting books, scriptures, or inspiring stories can influence your baby’s subconscious mind. It is believed that a baby in the womb absorbs emotions, thoughts, and experiences from the mother.

What you can do:

Read Bhagavad Gita, Ramayana, or other spiritual texts for wisdom and positivity.

Choose inspirational books that focus on happiness, personal growth, and mindfulness.

Speak loving and kind words to your baby as you read.

4. Eat a healthy and balanced diet

Your baby’s growth and brain development depend on the nutrients you consume. A balanced diet provides essential vitamins and minerals needed for a healthy pregnancy.

What you can do:

Drink saffron-infused milk for warmth and digestion.

Eat almonds, walnuts, and seeds for brain development.

Include leafy greens, whole grains, and dairy for overall health.

Avoid processed, junk, and overly spicy foods that may cause discomfort.

5. Engage in creative activities

Creativity stimulates positive emotions and relaxation, which benefits both the mother and baby. It also enhances the baby’s cognitive and emotional development.

What you can do:

Paint, draw, or do simple craft activities.

Sing lullabies or soft songs to your baby.

Write in a pregnancy journal about your experiences and feelings.

6. Talk to your baby

Babies in the womb recognize their mother’s voice and respond to it. Talking to your baby strengthens your emotional bond and helps them feel loved and secure.

What you can do:

Speak to your baby daily with love and encouragement.

Say positive affirmations like, “You are strong, happy, and loved.”

Play voice recordings of family members to introduce familiar sounds.

7. Stay happy and stress-free

A mother’s emotional state directly affects the baby’s well-being. Staying happy and calm is one of the core principles of Garbha Sanskar.

What you can do:

Avoid negative news and stressful situations.

Spend time in nature, gardens, or near water bodies for relaxation.

Practice deep breathing or take relaxing baths.

8. Use Garbha Sanskar services for guidance

If you’re unsure about how to start, consider Garbha Sanskar services, which provide structured programs for pregnant women. These services offer:

Personalized music therapy sessions.

Online meditation and yoga classes for pregnancy.

Nutritional guidance based on Ayurveda.

Counseling sessions for emotional well-being.

Many pregnancy yoga classes online also incorporate Garbha Sanskar techniques, making it easy for expecting mothers to stay active and mentally positive.

Final thoughts

Garbha Sanskar is a powerful way to nurture your baby’s development even before birth. By incorporating positive thoughts, music, yoga, healthy eating, and relaxation techniques, you can create a peaceful and joyful environment for your baby.

If you’re looking for structured guidance, consider enrolling in pregnancy yoga classes online or exploring Garbha Sanskar services that offer music therapy, meditation, and emotional wellness programs.

Pregnancy Yoga for Normal Delivery: Benefits, Poses & Tips Pregnancy is a beautiful journey filled with excitement, anticipation, and changes in a woman’s body. As the due date approaches, many expecting mothers seek ways to ensure a smooth and natural birth. One of the most effective and time-tested practices for this is pregnancy yoga. Practicing yoga during pregnancy not only prepares the body for childbirth but also promotes overall well-being.

In this article, we will explore the benefits of pregnancy yoga, the best yoga poses for normal delivery, and essential tips for safe practice.

Why is Yoga Beneficial During Pregnancy?

Yoga has been practiced for centuries to enhance physical and mental health. For pregnant women, it plays a crucial role in:

✅ Strengthening the Pelvic Muscles – Helps prepare the body for labor and supports an easier delivery. ✅ Improving Flexibility – Makes the body more adaptable to the physical changes during pregnancy. ✅ Reducing Stress & Anxiety – Breathing exercises and meditation promote mental relaxation. ✅ Enhancing Blood Circulation – Ensures proper oxygen supply to both mother and baby. ✅ Relieving Back Pain & Discomfort – Reduces common pregnancy pains, especially in the lower back. ✅ Promoting Normal Delivery – Prepares the body naturally for childbirth, reducing the chances of complications.

Best Pregnancy Yoga for Normal Delivery

Here are some of the most effective prenatal yoga poses that can help in achieving a normal delivery:

1. Baddha Konasana (Butterfly Pose)

This pose stretches the inner thighs, hips, and pelvic region, making it easier for the baby to descend during labor.

How to do it:

Sit with your legs stretched out.

Bring your feet together and hold them with both hands.

Move your knees up and down like butterfly wings for a few minutes.

Benefits: ✔ Strengthens pelvic muscles ✔ Improves flexibility in the hip area ✔ Enhances blood circulation

2. Malasana (Garland Pose/Squat Pose)

Squatting is a great way to open up the pelvic area and improve mobility.

How to do it:

Stand with your feet slightly apart.

Slowly lower yourself into a deep squat position.

Keep your hands in a prayer position at your chest.

Hold the pose for 30 seconds to 1 minute.

Benefits: ✔ Strengthens lower body muscles ✔ Increases flexibility in the hips ✔ Encourages baby’s movement into the correct birth position

3. Marjariasana (Cat-Cow Pose)

This pose strengthens the spine and relieves lower back pain, a common issue during pregnancy.

How to do it:

Get on all fours (hands and knees).

Inhale, arch your back (cow pose).

Exhale, round your spine (cat pose).

Repeat slowly 8-10 times.

Benefits: ✔ Improves spinal flexibility ✔ Reduces back pain ✔ Helps in baby positioning

4. Viparita Karani (Legs-Up-The-Wall Pose)

This pose improves blood circulation and reduces swelling in the legs.

How to do it:

Lie down on your back near a wall.

Raise your legs and rest them against the wall.

Stay in this position for 5-10 minutes.

Benefits: ✔ Reduces swelling in feet and legs ✔ Promotes relaxation ✔ Improves blood flow to the uterus

5. Anulom Vilom (Alternate Nostril Breathing)

Breathing exercises help calm the mind and reduce stress.

How to do it:

Sit in a comfortable position.

Close your right nostril and inhale through the left.

Close the left nostril and exhale through the right.

Repeat for 5-10 minutes.

Benefits: ✔ Improves oxygen supply ✔ Reduces anxiety and stress ✔ Enhances lung function

Tips for Practicing Pregnancy Yoga Safely

While yoga is highly beneficial, it is important to follow these safety guidelines:

🔹 Consult Your Doctor: Before starting yoga, check with your doctor to ensure it is safe for you. 🔹 Avoid Intense Poses: Stay away from poses that put pressure on the abdomen. 🔹 Use Props for Support: Yoga blocks and cushions can help maintain balance. 🔹 Practice in a Calm Environment: Choose a quiet place with good ventilation. 🔹 Stay Hydrated: Drink enough water before and after your practice. 🔹 Listen to Your Body: If any pose feels uncomfortable, stop immediately.

When to Start Pregnancy Yoga classes?

Pregnancy yoga can be started after the first trimester (around the 14th week) and can be practiced until the final weeks of pregnancy. However, the type of exercises and intensity should be adjusted according to each trimester.

📌 First Trimester: Focus on breathing exercises and light stretching. 📌 Second Trimester: Introduce gentle poses for flexibility and strength. 📌 Third Trimester: Practice relaxation techniques and labor-preparation poses.

Final Thoughts

Pregnancy yoga is an excellent way to prepare your body for a healthy, smooth, and normal delivery. By practicing regularly, you can reduce discomfort, build strength, and stay mentally relaxed throughout pregnancy. Always listen to your body and modify poses as needed to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience.

If you’re looking for guided prenatal yoga classes, consider joining a certified instructor who can tailor the sessions to your needs.

Safe and Effective Yoga Poses for Each Trimester of Pregnancy

Pregnancy is a time of profound physical and emotional change. As your body adapts to support the growing baby, gentle movement can help ease discomfort, reduce stress, and prepare for labor. Yoga is an excellent way to support your body throughout pregnancy, but it’s important to choose poses that are safe and effective for each trimester. Here’s a guide to some of the best yoga poses for each stage of pregnancy, along with how you can incorporate online yoga classes into your practice.

First Trimester: Nurturing Early Changes

During the first trimester, your body is adjusting to pregnancy, and you might experience fatigue, nausea, and sensitivity in your breasts. While your body is still in the early stages of pregnancy, yoga can help alleviate some of these discomforts and maintain overall well-being. Focus on gentle poses that support energy levels and promote relaxation.

1. Cat-Cow Pose (Marjaryasana-Bitilasana)

This pose helps to relieve tension in the spine and improves flexibility in the back and neck. Start on all fours with wrists directly under your shoulders and knees under your hips. As you inhale, drop your belly and lift your head and tailbone (cow pose), and as you exhale, round your spine, tucking your chin to your chest (cat pose). This movement increases circulation to the spine, reduces stiffness, and helps ease any early back discomfort.

2. Seated Forward Fold (Paschimottanasana)

This gentle stretch helps release tension in the lower back and hamstrings. Sit on the floor with your legs extended in front of you. Inhale to lengthen your spine, and as you exhale, fold forward from the hips, reaching for your feet or shins. Avoid any deep bends and only fold to a comfortable stretch.

3. Supported Bound Angle Pose (Supta Baddha Konasana)

This restorative pose helps open the hips and relax the body. Sit with your feet together and knees wide apart. Lean back onto pillows or a bolster for support. This pose encourages relaxation and can also help reduce early pregnancy anxiety.

Second Trimester: Strengthening and Balancing

As you move into the second trimester, your belly will begin to grow, and you may experience more energy and fewer symptoms of morning sickness. It’s the perfect time to focus on strengthening the body, especially the core and legs, while maintaining balance and flexibility.

1. Warrior II Pose (Virabhadrasana II)

Warrior II strengthens the legs and opens the hips, which is important as your body prepares for the growing baby. Step your feet wide apart and turn one foot out to 90 degrees. Extend your arms parallel to the floor and bend your front knee. Make sure your knee is over your ankle and engage your legs to hold the position. This pose builds endurance and stability.

2. Tree Pose (Vrksasana)

Balancing poses can be especially helpful during the second trimester as they promote mental focus and body awareness. Stand with your feet together, and slowly shift your weight onto one leg. Place the sole of your opposite foot on your inner thigh or calf (avoiding the knee). Bring your palms together in front of your chest or extend your arms overhead. This pose helps improve balance and strengthens the legs.

3. Bridge Pose (Setu Bandhasana)

This pose helps open the chest, hips, and strengthens the glutes and lower back. Lie on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor. Press through your feet as you lift your hips towards the ceiling, squeezing your glutes. Keep your shoulders and arms relaxed on the mat. Bridge pose is excellent for improving posture and alleviating lower back pain, which can become more common as your belly grows.

Third Trimester: Preparing for Labor and Relaxation

As you approach your due date, yoga can help keep you strong, flexible, and relaxed in preparation for labor. Focus on poses that open the hips, relieve lower back pain, and encourage deep breathing for relaxation.

1. Wide-Legged Forward Fold (Prasarita Padottanasana)

This pose helps open the hips and stretch the hamstrings. Stand with your legs wide apart and fold forward at the hips, keeping a slight bend in your knees. Rest your hands on the floor or use blocks for support. This stretch encourages flexibility in the hips, which will be beneficial for labor.

2. Goddess Pose (Utkata Konasana)

A great hip opener and leg strengthener, Goddess Pose is perfect for the third trimester. Stand with your legs wide, toes pointing outward, and bend your knees to 90 degrees, lowering your hips toward the ground. Bring your arms up with elbows bent to shoulder height. Hold this position for several breaths to strengthen the lower body and open the hips in preparation for childbirth.

3. Child’s Pose (Balasana)

Child’s Pose is a gentle stretch that helps relieve tension in the back and hips while promoting deep relaxation. Sit on your heels and fold forward, resting your forehead on the mat, with your arms extended forward or by your sides. This restorative pose is perfect for relaxation during your practice, especially towards the end of your pregnancy when you may feel tired or need a break.

Incorporating Online Yoga Classes Into Your Pregnancy Routine

Online yoga classes are a great way to stay consistent with your practice throughout pregnancy, especially when you may not have the time or energy to attend in-person classes. Many platforms offer prenatal yoga classes specifically designed for each trimester.

Benefits of Online Yoga Classes:

Flexibility: You can practice at your own pace and schedule, whether it’s during a lunch break, in the morning, or in the evening.

Variety: Online platforms often offer a wide range of prenatal classes, from gentle stretches to more energetic sessions, tailored to each stage of pregnancy.

Expert Instruction: Certified prenatal yoga instructors can guide you through safe and effective practices that are appropriate for your changing body.

Supportive Community: Many online platforms offer community forums or social media groups, allowing you to connect with other expectant mothers for support and encouragement.

Conclusion

Yoga is a powerful tool to support a healthy pregnancy. By choosing the right poses for each trimester, you can ease discomfort, improve strength and flexibility, and prepare your body for the challenges of labor and delivery. With the convenience of online classes, it’s easier than ever to maintain a safe and effective yoga practice throughout your pregnancy. Whether you’re in your first, second, or third trimester, yoga can help you feel more connected to your body and your baby, ultimately leading to a smoother, healthier pregnancy.

Motherhood with Prenatal Yoga: A Path to a Healthy Pregnancy

Pregnancy is a transformative journey, and taking care of both physical and mental well-being is crucial for moms-to-be. Prenatal Yoga Classes at Home and Online Pregnancy Yoga Classes provide an effective and accessible way to support a smooth pregnancy while preparing the body for childbirth.

Why Every Expecting Mother Should Consider Pregnancy Yoga

Ease Pregnancy Discomfort with Gentle Movements

Pregnancy brings natural changes to the body, often causing back pain, swollen feet, and fatigue. Pregnancy Yoga Classes help strengthen core muscles, improve posture, and enhance flexibility, ensuring better comfort throughout all trimesters. Specific yoga poses like the Cat-Cow stretch and Butterfly pose relieve lower back pain and improve circulation. Additionally, yoga helps in opening up the hips and pelvis, making movement and daily activities more comfortable as pregnancy progresses.

Reduce Stress & Enhance Emotional Well-Being

Hormonal shifts during pregnancy can trigger anxiety and mood swings. Practicing Yoga for Pregnant Women incorporates deep breathing and mindfulness techniques, helping mothers stay calm, focused, and emotionally balanced. Techniques such as guided meditation, alternate nostril breathing, and deep belly breathing help in reducing cortisol levels, the stress hormone, leading to a more peaceful and joyful pregnancy. Emotional support through yoga also fosters a deep connection between the mother and the baby, enhancing maternal bonding.

Improve Circulation & Boost Energy Levels

Fatigue is a common concern among pregnant women, especially during the first and third trimesters. Engaging in Yoga Classes for Pregnant Women at Home promotes better blood circulation, reduces swelling, and boosts energy, making daily activities easier and more comfortable. Simple practices like leg elevation, seated spinal twists, and slow-paced Sun Salutations improve oxygen flow to the baby and alleviate symptoms of dizziness and exhaustion. Regular yoga practice also enhances lung capacity, ensuring that both mother and baby receive sufficient oxygen.

Better Sleep & Relaxation

Struggling with sleep due to discomfort? Prenatal Yoga Classes at Home introduce relaxation techniques that help regulate sleep patterns, ensuring much-needed rest for both the mother and baby. Techniques such as Yoga Nidra (yogic sleep), supported reclining poses, and gentle back stretches help calm the nervous system, reduce nighttime restlessness, and encourage deep sleep. Studies have shown that prenatal yoga reduces instances of insomnia and improves overall sleep quality in pregnant women.

Prepare for Labor with the Best Prenatal Yoga Trainers

One of the biggest advantages of Pregnancy Yoga Classes is the preparation for labor and delivery. Guided sessions by Best Prenatal Yoga Trainers teach breathing techniques and gentle stretches that promote an easier birthing experience. Poses like the Squat Pose and Pelvic Tilts enhance pelvic strength and flexibility, which is essential for a smooth labor. Breathing techniques like Ujjayi breathing help manage labor pain by keeping the body and mind relaxed during contractions. Practicing yoga under expert supervision ensures that expecting mothers get the right guidance tailored to their trimester and specific health needs.

Online Pregnancy Yoga vs. Traditional Studio Classes

While traditional studio classes offer in-person interaction and community support, Online Pregnancy Yoga Classes provide unmatched flexibility and convenience. Expecting mothers can practice from the comfort of their homes without the hassle of commuting, making it easier to fit sessions into their daily routines. Online classes often offer personalized guidance, ensuring that each session is tailored to the individual’s trimester and comfort level. They are also cost-effective, with affordable packages that eliminate additional expenses such as travel and studio fees.

In this blog, we’ll explore the importance of pre and post-natal yoga, what a teacher training program involves, and how this training can benefit both the instructor and the students.

What is Pre and Post-Natal Yoga?

Pre-natal yoga is designed specifically for women during pregnancy, focusing on strengthening the body, improving flexibility, and relieving the common discomforts associated with pregnancy, such as back pain, swollen ankles, and fatigue. It also emphasizes breathing techniques and relaxation to reduce stress and anxiety while preparing the body for childbirth.

Post-natal yoga, on the other hand, is for women who have recently given birth. It helps them recover physically and emotionally by focusing on restoring strength, enhancing flexibility, and promoting bonding with the newborn. This practice can also help with managing stress, improving posture, and boosting energy levels as new mothers navigate the challenges of parenthood.

Why is Pre and Post-Natal Yoga Important?

Pregnancy and childbirth are intense physical experiences, and yoga offers a holistic way to address the challenges that arise before and after giving birth. Some of the benefits of pre and post-natal yoga include:

Physical Health: Strengthening muscles, improving flexibility, and maintaining overall health during pregnancy and postpartum.

Mental Health: Managing stress, anxiety, and depression through mindfulness, breathing exercises, and relaxation techniques.

Breathing & Relaxation: Learning and teaching breathing techniques that help during labor, delivery, and recovery.

Improved Posture: During pregnancy, the body undergoes many changes that affect posture. Post-natal yoga helps in restoring alignment and balance.

Connection with Baby: Prenatal yoga allows mothers to connect with their babies in utero, and post-natal yoga can deepen the mother-child bond.

What Does Pre and Post-Natal Yoga Teacher Training Involve?

Pre and post-natal yoga teacher training typically includes the following key elements:

Anatomy and Physiology: Understanding the physical changes during pregnancy and after childbirth is crucial. You’ll learn how the body changes, what muscles are engaged, and which movements should be avoided to ensure the safety of both the mother and the baby.

Specialized Yoga Sequences: Pre and post-natal yoga programs involve customized sequences that cater to the unique needs of expectant and new mothers. The training will teach you how to design classes that are gentle, safe, and effective.

Breathwork: Breathing exercises are particularly important in pre and post-natal yoga. You will be trained to guide students through specific breathing techniques that can help with pain relief, reduce anxiety, and prepare the body for labor.

Emotional Support: Pregnancy and the postpartum period can be emotionally overwhelming. You’ll learn how to create a safe and supportive environment, offer emotional support, and foster a sense of community among your students.

Teaching Techniques: As a pre and post-natal yoga teacher, you will develop the skills to modify poses to suit different levels of ability, manage a class with pregnant women, and offer adjustments that ensure safety and comfort.

Hands-On Practice: Most training programs offer plenty of hands-on teaching experience to give you the confidence and competence to guide classes.

How Does Pre and Post-Natal Yoga Teacher Training Benefit You?

Expand Your Skill Set: Specializing in pre and post-natal yoga sets you apart from other yoga instructors, making you more marketable to a wider audience. This can open doors to new teaching opportunities and increase your earning potential.

Personal Growth: Understanding the transformative power of yoga during pregnancy and postpartum can deepen your own yoga practice and personal growth. It will also improve your ability to empathize with your students.

Empowerment of Women: Teaching pre and post-natal yoga is an opportunity to empower women. You’re helping them embrace their journey, restore their strength, and foster a deeper connection with their bodies and their babies.

Flexible Work Opportunities: With the increasing demand for pre and post-natal yoga, many instructors are able to work in a variety of settings, from yoga studios to hospitals, health centers, and even offering private sessions.
