My Top 3 Postnatal Yoga Poses
What yoga poses are safe to do after baby? This question comes up a lot for new parents. The biggest rule of thumb for all poses and movement - can your breath continuously? If the breath is shallow or labored, it is an indication that your body might not be ready for pose or movement.
The Story of My Pelvis
The story of our pelvis is a combination of what we learn from our families, friends and media, the actions of others, and our physical health. Messages about our menstural cycle and sexuality are especially important. Sexual assult is so common in American society, I can't help but wonder the cumulative effects. Naturally if part of the body has been injured or hurt, there is a natural guarding. After years of guarding, the muscles shorten and become tense. Our pelvic floor muscles work in tandem with other muscles groups. Tightness in one area can affect the entire system.
