This is one of the easiest ways to start incorporating yoga into your daily routine and help with your pelvic pain - body awareness. SO EASY! And I know what you might think, "okay, that sounds boring so now you've lost me." But stay with me..
Body awareness is one of the key things to help support your body. Therefore, I have created an unclench yoga sequence that you can do at any time, while watching TV, sitting at work, meditating, preparing for sexy time, getting cozy in bed - especially when you're ready to go to sleep, it is very relaxing! While you are clenching parts of your body you are most likely clenching your pelvic floor as well; which can cause you even more pain. This sequence will help you relax and also teach you more about your body - start to make the connections, investigate, get to know your body! So freaking important on your healing journey.
Yoga sequence to unclench your body:
Think about each body part, are you clenching? Notice if you can start to slowly let it go, relax that body part. Do you think it's safe for you to unclench? If not, why? Maybe journal on it. What comes up for you?
Toes
Quads
Fingers
Shoulders
Neck
Face - forehead, around your eyes, around your ears
Jaw
Tongue
Belly
Glutes
Hips
Pelvic floor - think release perineum
Breathe into it those parts, feel yourself letting go, relaxing.
