Way of the Happy Sacrum

A supple yet sturdy pelvis is the rock star of your skeleton. It transmits forces from the lower body through the core, spine and beyond.
The sacrum is a pivotal pelvic bone, and, when healthy, it has just enough wiggle room to adjust to the twists and turns of everyday movements and asana.

It can be destabilized, however, through repeated over-stretching, asymmetrical forces or high impact, like a hard fall on the bum. A destabilized sacrum is an ouchy, unhappy sacrum

A few techniques and the right approach to yoga asana can stabilize our back-sides and turn the frowns upside down.
