This awesome stretch will get right into your hamstrings while putting the love into your hip flexors and psoas muscles. The extra benefit of this stretch is that you are moving your leg out of the sagittal plane, which is where we tend to do most of our activities and movements. Moving your leg from side to side provides an opportunity for more diverse movement in your hip joints and surrounding muscles and tissues. Enjoy!

![Your Psoas Isn't Just Tight, It's WEAK [Don't Stretch, Do These Instead]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/h_srhkcJxAY/mqdefault.jpg)
I just tried this and it seems to have relieved my lower back pain almost immediately. I've tried chiropractic care with no results. I just cant thank you enough for this video. 🧘♀️ Thank you SOOO MUCH.
Wow! That's great feedback. I hope your back stays feeling good or that this helps to give it a bit more ease.
Ive been looking for this stretch for about 31 years. thank you. I feel way better!
Really good 🙏
LOVE your kitty cat!! Awesome stretches - been in pain for years and years, doctors, tests, shots, PT's, chirop's, etc. - nobody has mentioned the psoas - this is helping alot thank you!
This is a winner.
Thank.
Amazing stretch! So glad I found this for my psoas pain!
This felt great - I can feel the energy moving down my psoas. Thank you!
Really like your exercises... Do you have some in the quads... Thank you for your help
Love this!💕💕
That's great to hear!
Thank you
Wonderful ❣️ tutorial Brea! Thanks reminding us of this movement that you taught us in teacher training@ YWI., My psoas loves you ! 😁💞
I need to know if I brace my abdominal during the stretch how do I belly breathe. Do I keep the abdominal soft if I do will it effect my bulging discs?
Ohyyyeeeaaahhhh
where can i buy that yoga strap?? is there something else i could use ?
You can use a belt or a long scarf if you have those things at home. Otherwise, if you have a yoga studio near you, they'll likely sell straps. You can sometimes find yoga straps at fitness stores as well.
@@HeartBonesYogaAnatomyMobility ok thank you Im pretty sure Amazon should have them thank you.
Hey Brea would you recommend before or after a class.....it feels like it might work both ways.....I’d like to to try this dur8ng the beginning of class as I feel tight hamstrings ans Psoas prevent and restrict so many people in their practice? But also maybe too after a strong legs class? Thanks xx
Either way is great, depending on your intention for the movement. I often add it at the end of classes, but the beginning would work as well.
0:59!
Hi Brea!
Would this be a good way to release a "pinching" feeling in front of the hip??
Thanks for sharing this yummy stretch!
Yes, it would help for sure :)
it’s hurt 😭
This is great, I can't wait to try it! The bolster I have is bigger, 24×6×12, so I'm wondering if it's too big for this? I do have a soft foam roller that I can use to prop myself up, or I can get a bolster like yours? But I would like to try this immediately.
Hi Alisa, if you haven't already tried it out with your bolster at home, I would say it's worth a try. It doesn't really matter what size it is, as the aim is to lift the pelvis high enough that the extended leg can be a bit lower than the hips tp get the benefit. You can also use a yoga block or a bunch of firm pillows.
