Day 17- Pelvic Press!

Lie on your back, exhale to gently imprint your spine into the mat by tilting your pelvis toward your navel, then roll up into a bridge.
Pelvic press can be an educational guide for finding a neutral spine and gently mobilizing the lower back. It coordinates breathing with muscle contraction to strengthen the deep core and pelvic floor and helps reduce strain on the lumbar spine by improving pelvic positioning awareness.
