Learn about this significant (and often misunderstood) hip flexor + get tips to create balance in your everyday life! A TIGHT PSOAS CAN CAUSE SERIOUS POSTURAL PROBLEMS AND CAN ALSO CONTRIBUTE TO ARTHRITIS IN THE LUMBAR FACET JOINTS. ON THE OTHER HAND…
…a weak and overstretched psoas can contribute to a common postural problem in which the pelvis is pushed forward of the chest and knees. Maybe you’ve heard (or felt!) that a tight (or weak) psoas can make certain yoga postures challenging or uncomfortable. Or that tension in the psoas can lead to day-to-day postural problems, or even dysfunctional breathing patterns. But how? And how can we find relief? Delve deeper with Sandra Anderson, and get tips and practices to help you create balance in the psoas and discover a greater sense of freedom in both your yoga practice and your daily life!
I am no yogi, but I began doing these stretches and poses, very slowly and gently, in my 50s. I have led an active and physically stressful life – including back surgery for a ruptured disc from carrying heavy equipment. These types of stretches have made a world of difference to my mobility and my strength, as I turn 60. Many thanks to Sandra, and to Yoga International for putting together quality education at an affordable price!
