Overview

Hi everyone, welcome to my channel. Today I’m bringing you a highly requested practice which is a yoga class that you can do specifically when you’re on your menstrual cycle. If you’re experiencing cramps as well as soreness in your lower back, I think you’ll find a lot of relief from this practice. It’s suitable for all experience levels and there are no standing poses. We’ll stay close to the ground and keep things really gentle.

It might sound counterintuitive but doing some movement and stretching while on your period can be a great way to relieve cramps. Just make sure not to overdo it. Our intention is to honor our bodies and honor our cycles. Give yourself permission to do less, move slowly and fully relax your belly. Wear comfortable clothing and breathe deeply. No props needed.
