“I believe there is great power in storytelling to heal shame, fear, anger or embarrassment around our pelvic spaces”

Yoga for the Pelvic Floor and Deepening Your Sense of Safety
In light of the intense stress and fear in these unprecedented time I think it’s important to draw a connection between the physical and energetic bodies. Anatomically the pelvic floor is a group of muscles that sits at the base of your body lining the bowl of your pelvis. Energetically the pelvic floor sits in and surrounds the first (root) chakra of the energetic body. To boil it down really briefly the root chakra represents our basic instinctual survival needs. It deals with things like safety, boundaries, security, our ancestors and family, how supported we feel.
