Transform Stiff Hips

Creating space in the hip joints is essential for overall mobility and flexibility. This practice influences the hips and extends to the pelvis, lower back, and surrounding muscle groups.

When these areas are tight, you may experience restricted movement, discomfort, and strain in your muscles, tendons, and ligaments.

Incorporating these simple movements into your practice can help you gradually release tension, improve your range of motion, and develop stability and ease of movement throughout your body.

Breathe into the sensations and let go.

Namaste 🙏🏻🙏
