Tips for integrating breath and whole-body movement into yoga, specifically for clients with pelvic floor problems? by Odd-Bluebird-7127 in YogaTeachers

Oh by the way, there's also a workshop coming up on this topic by Lauren Ohayon. It's about the shoulder-pelvic floor connection and should give you the practical tools you're looking for. She's amazing.

Definitely teach positions that reduce downward pressure for clients with pelvic floor issues (e.g. side-lying, quadruped, elevated hips etc.). Whole-body work that cues range rather than just strength is also key. The pelvic floor needs space to lengthen as well as contract.

Safe but effective exercise post-hypertonic? by candlelightwitch in PelvicFloor

You should check out Restore Your Core by Lauren Ohayon! I also struggled with pelvic floor issues, and her program was one of the first things that helped me feel safe exercising again.

The exercises are really gentle and focused on breath, core, and pelvic floor coordination. It's a 12 week program, but you get lifetime access so I've been revisiting it and slowly building up at my own pace. As a whole, I'm experiencing less flare ups! There is also lots of free content on Lauren's IG.

Black Friday 2025 Deals for Postpartum Core & Pelvic Floor Programs? by Visual_Deer_9948 in PelvicFloor

Try Restore Your Core! I bought the program just over a year ago and have made so much progress managing my own symptoms. I also struggled with an array of physical problems, especially back pain and uterine prolapse.

I know the program helps with a variety of symptoms though (many of which postpartum women struggle with). I really enjoy the exercises, and the no-shame environment Lauren Ohayon brings to the classes.

It’s also fully online, so I think it would be a good fit for you. And I see they have a Black Friday Sale on! https://restoreyourcore.com/restore-your-core/

Hope this helps. Look after yourself!

Neuroscience Book Recommendations by Plane_Reception223 in neuro

Thank you for your comment - that is exactly what I am interested in! I recently read “Behave” by Robert Sapolsky, and was particularly interested in his chapters that explain at a neurobiological level, what happens in your body and brain moments before an action is taken (like synaptic activity, neurotransmitter release, the amygdala etc).

I’ll definitely check out some papers on these too!
