A favorite Yoga Tune Up® saying we use to support our intent and mental focus is the process is the pose. That statement rings true with this movement, Nauli Kriya or lateral abdominal churning.
This action is a movement experience that conditions dynamic muscular control and neurological proprioception within all the layers of the abdominal core. The journey to learning this unusual looking action helps cultivate body sense and muscular strength through all the abdominal layers.
Regardless of whether or not you master the movement, the practices that lead you here build skills and make you strong. These are your pushing muscles. These small and large structures wrap and weave in and around your baby carriage to hold, support and transport your baby out into the world.
If you have never practiced Nauli Kriya before pregnancy we suggest waiting until after your baby has been delivered and your body has recovered from birth.
