Colors, Ragas, and Adornments

Beautiful choices to make the 9 months of pregnancy joyful

Colors influence our mood, sweet music calms the mind, and wearing favorite adornments (jewelry) brings joy to a mother. That is why in Garbhsanskar, colors, ragas, and adornments are considered beautiful mediums to make a mother's daily routine joyful and positive.

In the Indian music tradition, every raga has its own unique notes, rhythm, and emotion. Listening to calm and soothing ragas during pregnancy relaxes the mother and creates a beautiful environment for a loving connection with the baby.

You will find the raga tailored to your exact pregnancy day and stage in the 'Audio-Music' activity of the Garbhsanskar Guru App's daily routine.

Listen to today's suggested music for 10 to 20 minutes in a quiet environment at a soft volume. There is no need to place your mobile or headphones on your belly.

Things to keep in mind while wearing adornments:

  • Wearing gold, silver, pearls, or other jewelry is a personal and traditional choice.
  • If any jewelry causes itching, redness, or allergies, take it off immediately.
  • If swelling in your hands and feet increases, ensure your rings, bangles, or anklets are not too tight.
  • In the final months of pregnancy, prioritize lightness and comfort over beauty.
Every month, the right color, soothing raga, and comfortable adornment keep the mother's mind happy, making the Garbhsanskar journey more joyful, positive, and meaningful.
