Pelvic Floor

Position yourself on floor as shown in photo above. Relax your legs and arms. Make sure your lower back, hips, and butt are truly flat on the floor.

Now slowly "suck" your abdominals and belly straight down toward the ground as far as you can without hurting yourself. Hold for a count of 3 and relax. Repeat for as many reps as you can comfortably do.   Breathe normally throughout the exercise even when holding for the count of 3! Over time this improves posture, balance, sex, and breathing. If you feel anything really straining during this, stop immediately and slowly relax. It takes awhile to get the hang of it.
