- Day 1: today we'll be focusing on our breath and creating calm through the poses and breath work.
The 3 (inhale) / 6 (exhale) breathing cycles and the slow 360 breath, through the whole of your rib cage, will help calm and reset your nervous system.
Thank you for joining me today,
Alice x

Loved this all over again Alice
Lovely - one of my favourites too 💕
So nice to do the poses with and without the wall.
So glad you enjoyed it - it's so nice to have both in a flow!
Looking forward to following this series! Thanks, Alice.
Thank you! Hope you enjoy it x
Thank you so much for doing this Alice. I had been doing the Autumn Series and the 2 spring ones so I'm so happy to have a June calendar!
Lovely to have you here Charlotte! Thanks for all your support 💙
That was a lovely start to my day. I love the variety of your flows as I am not good at dreaming up a flow myself and suspect I might stick just to my favourite poses which isn’t ideal. It also feels nice to have someone to exercise with. Thank you Alice 😊
I love not having to think about it too! So great to have you as a regular here Ant xx
Loved the sequence, you are very calming and explain it so well ❤
Thanks so much Samantha - glad you enjoyed it!
Great start to June. Thank you Alice
Thank you for your support as always Ant! 💙
Lovely sequence thank you 😊
So glad you enjoyed it!
I am redoing January. Thanks so much Alice! xx
That's great Tessa! xx
Hello Alice! I’m starting for third time this program of 30 days. Thank you Alice! 😃
Wonderful - enjoy!
Alice I have been away and now have my young grandchildren staying which is why I haven’t done any of your videos recently. But I have saved them and will start again by the end of next week. Have been doing lots of sea swimming and walking but it leaves no extra energy for Hypopressives. But thank you Alice fir the videos. XXX
Hi Cecilia, you're very welcome! Sounds absolutely wonderful all that swimming and walking - and precious times with your grandchildren too. Have a great time! xx
Just finished day one and feeling very zen :-) Looking forward to tomorrow! Thank you!
Ah great! Lovely to have you here Lucy! x
Loved this. So excited to be joining you for the month. Fiona
Lovely to have you here with us Fiona!
Hi Alice, I returned to this session today. I really felt the lift and seem to be able to get the rib stretch better now.. thanks for making this available. Fiona
@@webbfamilyau brilliant, well done. The beginners breathwork videos I'm uploading this week might be helpful too 💙
Loved this sequence, feeling super calm now!
Wonderful!
day one done! thank so much! x
Thanks Alice
Yay!
You're very welcome!
Little behind, some days 1 and 2 today and will do 3 and 4 tomorrow. Loving it so far!
Brilliant - great you can join us Felicity!
Thank you Alice. Only just joined this as recommended by my pelvic physiotherapist. I found it difficult to get my head against the wall and had quite an ache in my back behind my ribcage from sitting against the wall.
Hi Heather, thanks for joining us here! Are you already familiar with the hypopressives breathwork and foundational poses (standing, diver, kneeling, quadruped, sitting and lying down poses)? This is quite an advanced set of videos. From what you're describing, I think you need a rolled up hand towel behind your head so you can press against it and have your eyes on the horizon, rather than struggling to get your head against the wall. Also were you sitting on a pile of books / yoga block? You might need to do this to make sure you're nice and upright, and not rolling back into your pelvis. The ache might be because your back muscles have been working - but you'd need to be checked in-person by a coach to make sure you're in the right position and doing the pose correctly. Hope that helps? Alice 💙
I'm a little behind but absolutely LOVED this one! I could feel the sense of calm descending over me. A great start to the day, looking forward to tomorrow! x
So happy you're here Tor - and so glad you're enjoying the flows! x
Loved it
That's great to hear!
Hey Alice, a friend recommended me your videos. Are these safe if a person has a prolapse?
Appreciate your response.
Hey, lovely of your friend to recommend me! If you have a prolapse, it's best to learn one-to-one (we work via video call) to start with. We have a symptom improvement programme for women with prolapse called Create Lift, which is getting amazing results! This will ensure you get the breathwork and poses correct and that you progress through the best poses to reduce your symptoms. The videos in the beginners playlist here are just a taster, and the other more advanced practise videos are aimed to be follow-on videos (free practise videos for life) for women we have worked with, or anyone who is competent with the technique. Hope that helps! Do get in touch if we can help you further. Alice
I have a question when you say hold your breath and stretch your ribs are you referring to the vacuum in the ribs where the ribs are open and all your organs are pulled upwards?
Yes, so the vacuum / apnea is in the pelvic and tummy area, and happens after the last exhale and during the breath hold and rib stretch 👍🏻 and you can feel that lovely sensation of lift - depending on the pose!

30 days of gorgeous hypopressives practise coming up!
