Low back & pelvic floor release
This is an incredible restorative stretch to do after a long day of all things mothering, baby wearing, nursing, or working at the desk. This stretch helps relieve the lower back and well as relax your pelvic floor if you suffer from a tight pelvic floor. As I’ve shared before the pelvic floor is very much connected to the vagus nerve. If our nervous system is dysregulated, if we are stressed and sleeping poorly this can cause tension in the body as well as our pelvic floor. This relaxing, restorative stretch activates the parasympathetic nervous system, encourages long deep breathing which tells our vagus nerve is safe to relax and in turn our pelvic floor also! It also supports our lymphatic and glymphatic systems, relieves pain and tension in the legs and feet. It’s just a yummy
Does your hip click during ab exercises? Do this to strengthen the core and pelvis, without clicks
If your hips click or when you do core exercises (like dead bugs or leg raises), save and try this workout ⬇️ Working on strengthening: 1️⃣ The deep core with isometric holds (these are harder than they look 😜), 3 sets x 30 sec 2️⃣ The hip flexors themselves (tight hip flexors are often weak hip flexors), 3 sets x 8-10 hovers/leg 3️⃣ The innter thighs (adductors) and glutes that support the pelvis, 3 sets x 15-20 reps . . Over time... The clicking will diminish 🪄 Core & pelvic strength and stability will improve 💪 And your posture will improve 👌 #posturecorrection #posturetips #corestrength #fitover40 #coreworkout #coreexercises #deepcore #hipflexorstrength #bodyweightexercises #lowerbackpain #homeworkout
