练习瑜伽可以有很多好处,包括平衡,灵活性和平静的思想。尤其是一种称为穆拉·班达(Mula Bandha)的练习甚至可以帮助增强骨盆底并改善膀胱控制。

梵语术语意思是“根锁”,穆拉·班达(Mula Bandha)是将根脉轮和进口绘制的瑜伽练习。据说根脉轮位于躯干的底部或阴部,这是您的肛门之间的区域和生殖器。

Your pelvic floor muscles support your bladder, bowels, and womb. Weakening of these muscles due to age or childbirth can lead to urinary incontinence.

Physically, mula bandha resembles a Kegel exercise. Kegels involve contracting the muscles at the center of the perineum and “lifting” the pelvic floor. One way to get the feel for this exercise is to practice stopping your urine mid-flow.

按照以下步骤尝试Mula Bandha并保持坚固,健康的骨盆底。

1.舒适地坐在椅子或垫子上。放松您的肩膀和下巴,并为您的呼吸带来意识。

2. As you inhale, begin to contract and lift the muscles of your pelvic floor.

3.在缓慢呼吸时,将骨盆底肌肉提高为5。可能会有助于想象一个电梯在每个数字上都上升。

4.保持最多10秒。您可以开始持有3秒钟,然后通过常规练习随着时间的推移而建立10秒钟。

5.慢慢呼气为5,每计数下降低骨盆底,直到您完全放松。

6.练习约2至5分钟,每天两次。

骨盆底肌肉训练,包括凯格尔练习,可以 help improve urinary incontinence. Since mula bandha closely resembles a Kegel, it may also help with bladder leakage. And since mula bandha is also a mindfulness practice, you may feel more calm as a result.

尽管它可能觉得添加另一个我tem to your daily to-do list, this practice takes very little time. Try not to focus on how long it takes you to do this exercise. It’s more important that you practice mula bandha on a regular basis.

因此,坐着舒适的座位,连接到您的呼吸,并享受穆拉·班达(Mula Bandha)古老的瑜伽练习。
