Relief from lower back pain

Pain in the lower back or legs can be a serious issue.

Whether it’s menstrual cramps, sciatica pain, or tension in your thighs, finding relief is essential.

One effective way to ease this discomfort is through a simple bio-energetic exercise that you can do while lying flat on your back.

Set Up for Relief

To start, find a comfortable space where you can lie down, such as your bedroom or living room floor.

Lying on a rug or woolen blanket on a harder surface is more supportive of your lower back imparticular your sacrum.

Here’s how to position yourself:

  1. Lie Flat: Bring yourself down onto your back.
  2. Knees Up: Lift your knees, keeping your feet flat on the ground.
  3. Hand Placement: Rest your right hand on your belly and place your left hand over your right. This position harmonises with YIN/YANG energy, that being your right hand (YANG) supports your left hand and your left hand (YIN) nourishes your right.

Focus on Your Breath

Breath is crucial for this exercise:

  • Inhale/exhale: As best you can, breathe IN and OUT through your nose allowing your belly to rise gently on your IN-breath and drop on your OUT.
  • Control Your Knees: A helpful technique is to imagine there’s a bent piece of green bamboo placed between your knees. Seeing a resistive force of this bent piece of bamboo between your forcing your knees open and the resisting the closing of the knees of the way up helps you maintain neural control.

Slow Movements Matter

It’s important to take your time with this healing practice:

  • Open Your Legs Slowly: Let your knees open slowly. Ideally, this should take about one to two minutes even more once you get the hang of it.
  • Bamboo Horizontal: Once your legs are open, envision the fictional piece of bamboo now lying horizontally. Again, the goal is to slowly bring your knees together, bending the fictional green bamboo stick while you control the movement of your ascending knees without any sudden jolts.

Embrace the Shake

As you repeat this process, you might feel your legs begin to shake.

This is a sign of suppressed and stagnant energy commonly held around the sacrum area where the sciatic nerve exits the spine to branch out to your legs.

Here’s what is suggested:

  • Let It Happen: Allow your legs to shake. This is natural and can help release blocked energy.
  • Repetition is Key: Continue bringing your knees together and then apart, doing this several times—three to five rounds—whilst always maintaining focus on breathing IN & OUT.

Time for Yourself

Try to dedicate 30 to 40 minutes to this exercise.

Consider playing soothing music to further help you relax into it:

  • Knees Apart, Knees Together: Open your legs, pause, then close them without any jagged movements.
  • Feel the Release: Allow your body to react, shake, and let go of tension.

Conclusion

This simple yet effective healing practice/exercise can help relieve pain in the lower back and legs.

Take a moment to focus on your breath and enjoy the process.

When you’re finished, you might just feel a wave of relief wash over you, leaving you grateful for the time you devoted to your healing.

Remember, finding peace and comfort is within your reach.
