BEST BEGINNINGS START WITHIN
THE POWERFUL CONNECTION BETWEEN YOUR BREATH & YOUR PELVIC FLOOR
Yoga is breath practice first! Breath is the first & last thing we do in life, and it is powerful. Most of us know that our breath fuels and cleanses our body through our pulmonary and circulatory systems, but did you know your abdominal diaphragm and pelvic diaphragm work together as a team? If you are a woman who has had a baby, you might identify this link more than you even know!
YOGA TWISTS A CAUTIONARY TALE:
Yoga twists and trunk rotations are great, but it's important to approach them with caution and listen to your body. These moves can be dangerous if done incorrectly; they can aggravate or create low back and SIJ (sacroiliac joint) pain and dysfunction. When done mindfully and in moderation, twists can be a beautiful addition to your practice and help to relieve tension in the spine.
