January often arrives carrying expectation. New goals. New habits. New versions of ourselves we feel pressured to step into quickly. At Nest , we believe beginnings don’t have to be rushed. They can be slow, intentional, and rooted in connection, to ourselves, to community, and to the natural rhythms around us. On Saturday 31 January 2026 , we are honoured to host Tinkuy with Mama Kakaw , an Andean-inspired cacao ceremony in Glasgow , guided by Erika Huarcaya , a native Peruv

I didn’t come to baby yoga looking for a big business or a packed timetable. I came to it as a mum. A mum of three. I needed work that fitted into real life, not something that asked me to bend my family around it. I’d already been teaching yoga for years. Evening classes, workshops, retreats. I loved the work, but baby yoga showed me something different. It showed me how powerful this stage of motherhood is, and how sustainable this work can be when it’s structured properly.

We created our signature series — Rebuild. Balance. Strong. Rest. — to give mothers a clear, specialist-led pathway through postpartum recovery and early motherhood. Each stage supports a different need, from reconnecting with your body to rebuilding strength and finally restoring your nervous system. A structured, thoughtful journey for real mums and real life.

(Thoughtful, meaningful and truly useful gifts for every stage of pregnancy) When someone you love is pregnant at Christmas, the question often pops up…   What on earth do I buy her? Pregnant mums are navigating a season filled with excitement, physical changes, uncertainty, joy and overwhelm all at once. The best Christmas gifts for pregnant women are always the ones that make her feel cared for, supported, relaxed and seen. Whether she is in her first trimester and exhauste

Preparing for birth isn’t just about the nursery or the hospital bag. The third trimester is a threshold moment — a time to reflect, connect, and honour the version of you who’s about to become a mother. Our Pregnancy Community Circle and Photoshoot is designed to support you in this exact season. A space to pause, feel celebrated, and capture memories you’ll treasure.

I thought budgeting for maternity leave meant planning for nappies and a pram. I didn’t realise the real cost was support for me: pelvic floor therapy, nourishing meals, a cleaner, a postpartum doula, and a community like Nest Glasgow. These are the things that make maternity leave feel calm, supported, and sustainable.

There’s something about November that makes us pause. The clocks have shifted, the light fades earlier, and everything seems to move just a little slower. We start layering jumpers, lighting candles, and craving warmth—not just in our bodies, but in our routines. Embracing the Season As we settle into this time of year, motivation can waver and energy dips. We might feel like we’ve lost our rhythm, too tired to push, yet too restless to fully rest. That’s where The Move Train

When I was pregnant with my first baby, I remember googling “pregnancy yoga near me” late at night—aching back, restless legs, and a head full of swirling thoughts that refused to switch off. If you’ve landed here searching for pregnancy yoga in Glasgow, you might be in that same place: looking for a way to feel more comfortable in your body, calmer in your mind, and a little more prepared for the road ahead. Pregnancy yoga is much more than gentle stretching. It’s about crea
