Why is your back so important

The core and back are a vital part of the human body and it needs attention before it is too late. The back holds us upright and all nerves run through the spine which is connected to all our organs and these organs are responsible for the control of the body and communication among its parts.

These three core and lower back exercises are easy to do every day.

your core should be strong

Your core muscles are your abdominals, lower pelvis, and lower back. So basically your core stabilizes your full upper body. A weak core makes movements more difficult and makes your lower back easily prone to injuries. But a strong core supports your back and keeps your stomach tight.

With these three core and lower back exercises that take six minutes, I built up my core muscles after having two babies. It took a year, but it was worth it – and was much less time than it would have taken to fix back misalignments or get rid of a big belly. Now I feel great and have never stopped taking care of my lower back and stomach.

Feel secure in your body

The two chakras involved in this training are the sacral and solar chakras, highlighted in the images below. Both make the body feel more secure and effective. I changed not just physically after building up my core muscles but also spiritually because having a strong core made me feel secure and safe within myself.

Start with these 3 exercises

Before you start, watch the video and focus on the movements and the instructions below. When you feel confident to do the movements right, repeat each exercise 10 times. Repeat the full sequence four times.

1. cross crunch

Lay on the back. Put your hands on the side of your head and alternately start pulling the elbows to the opposite knees. Feel the sides of your abdomen working. Breathe slowly and steadily.

2. Bridge with pelvis tuck

Lay on your back with bent legs. Start pulling your pelvis up and down. Stay off the ground while doing the exercise. Feel your lower abdomen working. Breathe slowly and steady.
