I know you need a break mama…or at least I do! 🙃 So I put together some stretches for you!
These legs up the wall poses are an awesome time to pause for 5-10 min mama stretch and a great way to do some pelvic floor therapy at home.
If you want to make these poses feel even better add a couple pillows under your bum.
1. Legs straight up wall increases blood & lymph flow as well as unloads your back and pelvis.
2. Leg apart stretches your inner thighs and hamstrings.
3. Modified goddess or butterfly pose stretches your inner thighs and pelvic muscles.
4. Figure four pose stretches your deep hip muscles.
5. Modified happy baby adds a lovely stretch to the hips and pelvic floor muscles.
