To round up our #shredprepyoga #instayogachallenge we're gonna take it to the floor for a bit of ❄#MyoFascialRelease ❄ with #tennisballs 1. Lie on your back and bring your feet hip distance apart slightly in front of your hips. Place a tennis ball (or massage ball) to the outside of your #hip/under the #gluteus - if you have to 2 balls, use one for each side. You may have to experiment a little bit to find the exact right spot but if you do, after a day of riding the sensation should be quite intense (not to say painful...). Make sure the ball is targeting a fleshy part (aka muscle) and is not pressing on a bone! Let your whole weight sink onto the ball, relaxing your body as much as you can. If the sensations lessen a bit after a while, you can add a little movement by gently rotating your hips, finding even more yummy spots to massage. 2. If you are craving an even deeper massage (and/or more sensations), you can intensify by placing the ankle of one foot on the knee of the other like you would for #ThreadTheNeedle pose. Leave the second ball on the other side as it is or simply take it out to the side for this variation. If this is your first time trying #FascialSelfmassage, you may not want to go here at all but stick to the first variation! Always listen to your body and respect your edge - more is not necessarily better, especially in yoga... If you feel really good in your stretch, you can try lifting your arms overhead, stretching long through the fingertips. This can alter and intensify the sensations in your hips - or do nothing at all, depending very much on your body and the placement of your balls. Feel free to get creative, wiggle around and explore with curiosity. Your hips will thank you.
