When our respiratory diaphragm becomes tight & restricted, whether from working on a computer, poor posture or uncontrollable events like getting sick with bronchitis, it can wreak havoc on a lot of different systems including the pelvic floor.

Your respiratory diaphragm is fascially connected to your psoas and your psoas runs down the front body, crosses the frontal hip bones and attaches to the inside of the femur head. It quite literally attaches our upper body to our lower body!

Restriction in the diaphragm can hinder deep breathing causing a downward pressure on the pelvic floor. It doesn't take long for this to become a very uncomfortable situation.

In the yogi membership, there is a playlist called "Breathe Better" and all of these classes cultivate the connection between the breath and the pelvic floor. Good pelvic health begins with the breath!

One of my favorite classes is the Chest & Diaphragm Opening. This is one of those classes I regularly come back to because it makes such a difference in the quality of my breathing. I highly recommend you add it to favorites if you're a member! Not a member? Drop a comment and I'll give you the info for the one week trial 😎😎

I will also be adding another class this week focusing on the neck, shoulders and even jaw tension. See you on the mat!
