Pelvic Health Yogi

When your upper respiratory system is cut off from your lower pelvic floor system, this separation creates a downward pressure on the pelvic floor which creates weakness and hypertension.

It can lead to a lot of conditions:

Low back pain / SI joint pain
Hip Pain
Urinary issues
Painful in*******se 
TMJ
Anxiety
Vulvodynia (external nerve pain)
Foot/Knee pain

We've discussed reverse breathing 😮‍💨 and it was quite confusing for many. My students have also said how difficult it is to connect with the breath in the pelvic floor and the "zipping up" action. Which is why in my program restore your pelvic before we go over this in detail. It's nuanced work, it's not a fast and fun flow, it's a process of turning inward and connecting with yourself. Once you learn how to do that in a quiet space, you'll be able to do it anywhere!

I was on vacation when I posted this a year ago for the first time. But honestly yogis, I still do things like this at home several days a week. Because maybe I'm not getting in 20K at Disney, but I'm still running around at home and the back chain of the body holds a lot of tension just from every day life. So this calf and hamstring opener is a myofascial release technique that is extremely beneficial for opening up that back chain.

Did you know they call it Black November now? I mean, it helps with gift shopping but dangit, I find myself saying, "You already have 16 of those, you don't need another one... but the color!" multiple times a day. 🤣

Anyway, happy Friday! I have something special coming to the entire yogi community either later today or tomorrow. In the meantime, relax your jaw and don't cross those legs!

Will your classes fix _____?

That's a good question.

Strengthening, mobilizing and creating relaxation within the pelvic floor as well as the surrounding musculature is going to support your pelvic organs. It's going to help with posture and take some of the brunt off the ligaments that are holding up those organs.

But, will it FIX a rectocele or other type of prolapse...
I can't say it'll FIX it, but will it help?
Absolutely.

Will it hopefully prevent it from getting worse? That's the goal!

But all that is going to depend on your consistency, your dedication to exploring what is going on specifically for you and then addressing that. I have the tools you'll need in regards to movement and awareness, the rest is up to you 🙂

But I'll be there with you along the journey. I’m here for guidance, support and lending an ear when you need to talk something out in regards to pelvic “stuff.” I’ll see you on the mat yogi!

In case you missed it!

The Hypertonic Pelvic Floor Monthly Schedule has been created!!

I will be emailing a PDF to those on the email list because I've added links to all the classes and that is the only file format that is acceptable for those links to work! I'll drop the basic image here and you can always use the SEARCH bar in the membership to find the class listed. I spent a good deal of time putting this together and I really think following it with the guidelines I've provided will be very helpful!

This calendar is perfect for students who are new, working on a tight pelvic floor, experiencing pain, in a flare or who are in the trial and wanting to try a variety of classes. It will help you connect to your breath as it moves through the pelvic floor. You will cultivate a connection with the "lifting" action as opposed to clenching the muscles of the pelvic floor. It's also going to help release tension around the pelvis, diaphragm, and heck the whole body and offers lots of opportunity for creating space and mobility.

See you on the mat!

I can tell you from personal experience that I have literally never been thinking about anything else when I'm trying to stand in a tree pose, warrior 3 or any other balance pose. You don't think about what's for dinner, you don't think about that conversation with a coworker, the only thing you're thinking about is not falling & also what muscle group is engaging. It's a dynamic meditation, my friends, and you're invited to the party 🎉

Your feet provide a stable, tripod like base for your body which has a very important role of supporting everything above it. Including your pelvis! We've talked about how there are myofascial lines that connect from your feet all the way to your tongue and have to pass through the pelvic floor. I'll reiterate here again, everything is connected! It's important to have a strong and stable base that has all of the elements of health, including flexibility, stability, and mobility. We address the a lot in my classes because it's part of the big picture!

One can easily see why it's so necessary to address the nervous system and not JUST the muscles in the body, right? Also, did you know that there are more nerves that innervate your fascial tissue than muscular tissue? Fascinating! We can then deduce that addressing your fascia greatly benefits the nervous system and helps "rewire" some of the information being stored there.

When I was talking to my mom about Daags she said that he had baptized everyone he met with his slobber. 👅 it was pretty unreal how much slobber came out of that dog's mouth! 🥹 hold your babies tight today, give them an extra kiss for me and while you're here, relax your jaw, don't cross your legs, and I'll see you on the mat 🙏❤️‍🩹

I was gonna show a video on “knitting the ribs” but heres what we got 🤭

Hundreds of you commented and were so incredibly kind reguarding the loss of my dog Daags this weekend. ❤️‍🩹 I wish I could respond to each and every one but my mind is just so tired from processing the loss. THANK YOU to each one of you who sent love, hugs, prayers and shared your stories with me. I felt your compassion and I'm truly grateful for you.

Our pets are simply one of this earth's greatest gifts. One of you shared this graphic with me and it hit all the feels...

Yogis, I appreciate every single one of your prayers for my Beastie today. There was nothing more to be done for him and I had to say goodbye to my best friend. He just turned 5. I don't know what Filus is going to do, she didn't get to say goodbye.

Rest in heavenly peace Daags 💔

You've probably seen this handsome face in my pelvic yogi videos. He's a master at being cute. Well, he's been to the vet 3X in the last 24 hours and currently they are draining his chest cavity of a massive amount of air due to a bulbus lesion on his lung. I'm a total mess about it. I don't know what his future holds but I hope it's one with us.

If you are a prayer, we sure could use some of those right now! 🙏🙏🙏🫶🏼
