A simple squat pose is made so much easier when you use a yoga block. It helps to gently open the groin to boost blood flow to the pelvic floor muscles, whilst your elbows can further open the groin to assist pelvic floor exercises. New to menopause yoga?

In perimenopause and menopause, our pelvic floor weakens due to the loss of estrogen so improving our pelvic health becomes critical. Unlike Kegel exercises, squatting creates a posterior pull on the sacrum that balances the work of the pelvic floor muscles. Using a yoga block greatly assists this pose if your hips are tight.
Yoga squat is also a great counterpose for stress. It helps relieves constipation as well as stretching the ankles, groins and lower legs, and tones the abdomen. It also helps correct SI joint dysfunction.
Two-thirds of the world’s population goes to the bathroom in this position….surely they can’t all be wrong?
