A healthy spine has both inward curve and outward curve
allowing the spine to act like a spring structure. Too much exaggeration in any area increases
the risk of injury. Muscles help with every function of the body and provide strength
and stability needed for good posture and alignment. When muscles work together
to stabilize the spine and maintain its natural cure they pull in different directions
with little tension. However, if the muscle group pulls in one direction with
too much force or for too long the spinal column start to move out of its
natural alignment and we end up with back problems. This can be from sitting
too much, poor posture, improper sitting at a desk, or overworking the muscles.
So, what can we do this week we are going to focus on pelvis posture the ideal sitting
position?
In the ideal
sitting position body weight falls directly over the pelvis so that you are
sitting directly onto the sit bone. The lower back should appear lengthened and
not rounded. The goal is to achieve neutral pelvis position because this optimizes
muscle strength and muscle balance. To sit properly align the head, ribs and
pelvis. Let’s get started
(Sitting
twisting posture check hip point and pubic bones on same plane
Don’t spill the
water laying supine imagine balancing a
glass of water on lower abs.)
END: A
healthy spine has both inward curve and outward curve allowing the spine to act
like a spring structure. In yoga the spine is the conduit that allows the chakra
energy to move from the root to the top of your head. We need the spine to be strong
and flexible in body, mind and soul. Life will hand you all kinds of experiences.
Too much exaggeration in any of life’s experiences causes injury and pain so,
stay centered, aligned and flexible body, mind and soul.
