    Sciatica
    This position in a forward fold with a neck decompression. You can start this exercise with your knees bent as much as you need but try and maintain a straight back. Hinge from the hips and lace your fingers behind your neck. Prop up under your chin with your elbows as they touch together and relax. If you are very tight you can feel this from the crown of your head down your back and down the back of your legs. This is a great position to alleave any tension in the lower back where sciatica usually roots from.

    Lovely Raven! I am prone to sciatica from a lower back injury, and this is one of the most helpful poses. I feel like it helps stretch the hamstrings which also connect to tightness in the lower back and hips. Alleviating pain in multiple ways 🙂
