ADULT CONVERSATION:
Real talk - I had never even heard of the pelvic floor until my colleague, Molly Sommerhalder, told me she was leaving her job in public relations to start a business that focused on strengthening the pelvic floor!
And from talking to Molly, I learned how common it is to have issues with the pelvic floor. In fact, 27% of women 40 to 59 will experience a pelvic floor issue or condition. Once I heard that, I knew more women would benefit from hearing about what she teaches.
And some of the symptoms could be:
- Constant need to urinate
- Uncontrolled release of bowel or urine during daily activities
- Painful sex
- Vaginal dryness or imbalance
- Tight or loose pelvic floor muscles
- Feeling like your pelvic floor is hanging low
Molly is the proud founder of Swan in the Lotus, Yoga and Wellness. She’s a woman’s embodiment coach and a yoga teacher. She's on 50 Shades of Kay to answer your questions and share what she has learned on her lifelong journey to healing her high-toned pelvic floor.
