January is a good time to slow things down 💛 If your pelvic floor feels tight, guarded, or overstimulated, strength is not always the answer. Sometimes your body needs permission to soften.
Here are 6 gentle ways to relax the pelvic floor and support your nervous system
1️⃣Deep belly breathing with humming: The vibration from humming can help cue relaxation and reduce tension
2️⃣Warm bath: Heat encourages muscles to let go and supports overall calm
3️⃣Pelvic floor drop: A gentle release rather than a squeeze. Yes, it is the opposite of a Kegel
4️⃣Gentle hip circles: Supports mobility and helps ease tension around the pelvis
5️⃣Legs up the wall: A restorative position that supports circulation and relaxation
6️⃣Jaw and neck massage: Tension in the jaw and neck is often connected to tension in the pelvic floor
Your pelvic floor needs both strength and relaxation. Which one feels most supportive today? 👇
