Every been confused by the term, "pelvic floor" or "mula bandha?" What the heck does that really mean? In this video, we'll look at the three parts of the "pelvic floor" and how you can feel them. We'll also demystify mula bandha and get more clear on what it means anatomically.

Just wow! I thought I knew what a mula bandha was, and you just deepened it a hundredfold.

so well explained; thank you! I love your enthusiasm, and I appreciate the depth of knowledge you bring to your teaching. having watched a few anatomy videos of this region, I could visualize the muscle groups you were describing, and it all made sense!

@@RachelScottYoga oh yes indeed - utube can be such a wonderful way to find other teachers and learn and share together! my channel focuses on 'yoga and mythology', with a specific focus on the divine feminine in relation to yoga poses and practices.

Awesome explanation. So so helpful. It is so hard to first understand and then explain to students. Your video makes it easier.

This helped engage my core in a way that wasn’t compressing the organs in my belly causing discomfort. So now when I hear “engage the core” I draw up through the pelvis rather than sucking in my gut. Which helps with breathing during my practice. Thank you much🙏

awesome Rachel!! thank you so much for this video. Great info and I really appreciate how you talk about this with such clear language. Using anatomical words allows students to think about these parts of their body. I am going to practice finding these distinct three areas of my own pelvis in hopes of one day suggesting it to my students!

Great explanation ❤ Do you think some mula bandha awareness and exercises are good to teach in prenatal yoga classes?

@RachelScottYoga Жыл бұрын

Sure! For prenatal, would definitely want to teach to the quality of relaxation and release as well as engagement - an essential part for prenatal :)

Would this branch of yoga help with pelvic floor tightness?

@RachelScottYoga 4 ай бұрын

I’m not quite sure what is meant by branch of yoga. I may think that pelvic floor exercises that focus on both strengthen and relaxing the pelvic floor would be useful.
