Release Lower Back Tension
My back has been feeling really tight lately cos of CrossFit so I stretched a little today.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1st row:
Always therapeutic and relaxing to start with child’s pose then a couple of cat cow stretches. Inhale arch back, exhale round back 5x.
2nd row:
•Squat: Release tension in the back as you twist and open up the hips too.
•Seated Twist: Keep spike long. Inhale to lengthen spine, exhale to twist.
3rd row:
•Butterfly pose to stretch the spine & inner thighs.
•On your back: Hug knees to chest keeping shoulders down, using core strength to get hips closer to ground to stretch the lower back. Then open legs for happy baby to stretch hamstrings and inner thighs too.
Rest in supine butterfly for a few deep breaths.
4th row:
•Thread The Needle: Stretching the glutes help release tightness in the lower back too. Relax shoulders and lengthen tailbone down to feel the stretch.
Finish with a good spinal twist, breathing into the belly, exhaling from the lower back.

Hold these poses for 1-5min.

Ok ? here’s my mini-story on lower backs~long time ago (not soooo long, but long), my late grandmother would tell me to sit up straight, stop hunching your back, stop sitting in front of the TV watching cartoons all day - you’ll have backaches - mini-me, stubborn me - never listens.
Here I am today sharing a lower back yoga sequence cause - I sit a lot, more than moving a lot anyway, and all this sitting and hunching at my phone and laptop has definitely brought with it - lower back pains (and tight hips-but that’s not going to be in this video today). In any case, pain in the lower back can seriously affect your mood and your day.
So, the lower back is super important for us to maintain our posture, reduce stiffness and speed up the healing process. How do we protect and remove the tensions to get these benefits?
These yoga poses can offer great relief for the pain and provide great preventative care for the future. Here are a few yoga poses to ease lower back pain and relieve that dull sensation.
Sequence:
Centering: 3 minutes + include breathing practice of your choice
Warming Up: Surya Namaskar Classical or Surya Namaskar B, see my videos below for the Surya Namaskar options.
